Don’t do any long-distance moving into a home that isn’t clean and tidy

January 27, 2015

If you’re about to trek across state lines or even from one coast to another for a major relocation, you’ll want to minimize as much aggravation as you can. This means you need to avoid any work possible on moving day, since you and your state-to-state movers will be pretty busy unpacking and organizing. Don’t move into a messy house – make sure things are pristine when you get there.

The best way to ensure that your new digs are clean is to do it yourself. Unfortunately, this isn’t usually possible when long-distance moving is involved. If you can’t easily get to the new place, consider hiring a local cleaning company to give things a once over before you arrive with your boxes and furniture. Search online or contact your real estate agent to be certain there’s a reliable company involved with the clean up.

You can also remove the responsibility of cleaning from yourself by putting the cleanliness in writing. For instance, one of the closing stipulations can be that the old owner needs to clean (or hire cleaners) to get the house in tip-top shape before you set foot in it. Make sure to include language guaranteeing a penalty for non-compliance or else you and your movers might be kicking dust bunnies and trash out of the way to make room for your possessions.

Stay constantly prepared for military moving

Stay constantly prepared for military moving

If you’re in the military, you know you could be deployed to a different base at a moment’s notice. As such, you need to be vigilant at all times and be in a constant state of readiness to pack up and go. This can be difficult with a family in tow, but a good plan and some reliable out of state movers will help ease any transition. Here are some tips to integrate with your daily life to ensure moves won’t take too long.

Keep receipts for everything related to your military moving, even well after the movers have brought everything into your new home. Many costs, including gas and supplies along the way, may be reimbursed by the military. Don’t expect to have to pay for everything until you’ve been told otherwise.

Make sure your kids understand you might have to move very quickly. Of course, you don’t want them to avoid making friends or enjoying themselves. However, preparing them for the fact you might be deployed elsewhere is kinder than avoiding the issue and springing it on them at the last minute.

Maintain a storage space somewhere you trust. There are some items, such as family heirlooms or memorabilia you probably don’t want to have with you until you’re much more settled. Keep them at a family member’s house or in a storage facility near a good friend or relative who is less prone to moving than you are.

U.S. metal fabricator announces relocation plans

A corporate relocation is one of several changes for metal fabricator Taylor-Wharton International (TWI). According to Gasworld, the company intends to move its headquarters from Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, to Minneapolis, Minnesota as part of its new business strategy.

The announcement comes after TWI recently named a new Chief Operating Officer. Eric Rottier, Chief Executive Officer of TWI, said the company will be better equipped to help its customers by moving to a new location.

“We’re entering a new phase for the organization that includes an exciting transformation of how we conduct business, service our customers and interact as team members,” Rottier told the news source.
