An “intrastate” move is a move that happens within the same state, according to moving companies, whether you’re moving from one side of Stronghurst, IL to another or moving from one side of the state to another. When planning and negotiating your intrastate move with your moving company, remember this tip to keep your move local. If the moving company crosses a state line for any reason, whether this is planned or accidental, then your move falls under the guidelines for long distance moving.
Even though your move isn’t technically long distance, you’ll still have to plan for the same kinds of logistical issues as if you were moving to a new state. In either case, you’ll still want to do thorough research in order to reassure yourself that you’re choosing a dependable moving company with a solid reputation that will offer you the best moving services for your money. Some of these logistics concerns include: Does your moving budget cover the costs for everything that will be involved in your move? Have you compared quotes from different moving services companies located in the Stronghurst, IL area? Is the moving service you’re hiring fully insured and licensed in your state? Which size moving truck (or trucks) will you need? Will you be packing your own belongings or hiring the moving service to do this? Will you need to rent a storage facility to temporarily store your belongings in your new location? Wirefly can help you answer all of the questions on your checklist. If you work with Wirefly, then you know your moving company will be fully licensed and insured.
As far as long-distance moves are concerned, they all fit into that category whether there’s one state line being crossed or several on the way to the consumer’s next home. Long distance moves also cover situations where the move ends at a city within the original state, but the moving route crosses a state line at some point to make the trip shorter. This is a common scenario for states that have uneven state lines, such as Texas, Wisconsin, Idaho, Minnesota and quite a few others.
The federal governing body that licenses long-distance moving companies in Stronghurst, IL is the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), which covers the residential moving and trucking industries. They also set up and enforce the regulations for long-distance moves. Wirefly verifies that all the movers in its network have the requisite insurance and licensing, but it’s still a good idea for consumers to look into moving companies on their own. While doing so, the consumer can check out a company’s performance records. The USDOT website is helpful for reviewing long-distance moving companies, and it will have accident and complaint reports available.
Of course, long distance moves tend to cost more than local moves. It’s important for consumers to remember that there are several factors that go into the cost of a move, and just because one moving company has the lowest quote doesn’t mean that will be the cheapest option. There could be services the consumer needs that aren’t included in one or more of the companies’ quotes, such as assistance packing up possessions. It’s common for moving quotes to only cover the most basic moving services and for any other services to cost extra. Consumers can avoid unexpected charges by getting a binding moving estimate from the moving company they choose, which has a list of all anticipated costs and guarantees that the moving company isn’t going to add any hidden costs. In setting up a long distance move, consumers in Stronghurst, IL will also need to figure out if they’d like to pack their belongings and then fly to their new home before the movers arrive, or if it’s better to rent a truck and move their belongings themselves.
It is extremely challenging to relocate to the new country, including moving your belongings through international means.

Moving a business or corporate office has its own challenges because you are not able to stop the busy buzz of the globally connected world.
