We make it easy for you to find and compare the best moving companies in Penobscot, ME, including home movers, office movers, long distance movers, international movers, and auto transport companies to make your move as simple and pain free as possible.
Finding the right moving company can be a pain. Whether it means moving from one part of Penobscot, ME to another, or if it means moving into or out of the city completely, picking among the many moving companies in the area is a challenge. It is important to remember that each state has its own jurisdiction regarding long-distance moving, so keeping the move to as short of a distance as possible is essential. Focusing on a local move is much more simplistic and means removing the headaches of dealing with different state regulations. For instances where moves are kept local to the Penobscot, ME area, it is essential to find the right moving company for the task, and here are some things to consider on this matter.
Some concerns that are part of a long-distance move to another state are just the same as moves to another part of Penobscot, ME. Therefore, performing research before the move takes place is essential to finding a company with the right services for the move at hand. A few questions need to be asked with any move, and they include the following: What size truck should be ordered? Who is doing the packing, the person moving or the moving company? Will a storage facility need to be rented to hold extra items that will not fit into the new move or that do not need to be used right away to limit the amount of items being moved? Does the moving company being considered keep employees certified with the proper licenses and insurances? The moving companies we match you with all have the certifications that are needed. Two other items that need to be addressed are whether or not the budget for the move allows room for the moving company and whether not a proper comparison of the companies has been performed.
How many state lines you cross during your move is irrelevant when it comes to whether your move will be considered long distance or not: if you have crossed one, then you may as well cross them all! It is important to note that if you choose a route that crosses a state line (even to save time moving your possessions), then it will be considered a long-distance move.
If you are a long-distance mover in Penobscot, ME, then you will be required to hold a license from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), which is a federal governing body that regulates residential moving and trucking industries. The laws and regulations created by the FMCSA must be adhered to, so Wirefly only works with the movers who can present their proper licensing and insurance. However, we do advise our customers to conduct their own research on any moving service we refer them to. After assuring the movers have proper documentation, it's responsible to also review performance records as well as accident and complaint reports located on the USDOT website.
A long-distance move to or from Penobscot, ME will cost more than a local move, so it is important to consider all the components involved when obtaining a moving quote and comparing referrals. Just because a company offers you the lowest quote doesn't mean you are getting the best deal. Picture this: you need assistance with packing your possessions, but you find out that service is not included in the original quote the moving company you chose gave you. Like many companies, this company charges extra for additional services, and in the end, it's more expensive (and a much bigger hassle) than it would have been if you'd have chosen a company with a higher quote, but they include all services at a flat rate. So, our suggestion is to ask for a 'binding moving estimate' (an estimate that lists out all expected costs and guarantees there are no additional hidden costs to be added) from the company you are getting an estimate from. We hear the same questions often, such as: Can I pack my possessions before the movers arrive? Can I trust that my items will be safely transported to my new home? Would it be more beneficial to rent a truck and do this all on my own?
The process of moving your belongings internationally to or from Penobscot, ME, will top the list of challenges that come along with moving to a new country. If you are frustrated by the lack of international moving companies that are both reliable and reputable, you've come to the right place to get your moving project underway.
Each moving company that is located outside of the United States has to be in good standing with the FIDI. This is the largest network of international professional moving and relocating companies. If they stay in good standing, they will have the right to be called an Accredited International Mover. It is always recommended to do research on your own as well. You should review each prospective company's history from the American Moving and Storage Association, the Better Business Bureau, and the Household Goods Forwarder Association before you make any final decisions. Once you have narrowed it down to the top two or three, Wirefly will assist in getting an international moving quote.
The process of moving an office in Penobscot, ME to a new location is different than the process of moving a home. The typical office has plenty of equipment both large and small, such as copy machines, servers, computers, phone systems and other assorted smaller items, which means the job requires experienced office movers. The licensed and insured moving companies in the Wirefly network will be ready with movers who can safely move a variety of office equipment, disassemble cubicles and transport smaller items in durable crates.
Another important consideration is the time involved in a corporate office relocation. It’s not easy to take a break in the business world, especially for an organization with dozens or hundreds of employees. No business wants to have movers going through the office for days on end while clients and employees are present, and there’s certainly no time for a drawn-out unpacking process. With experienced movers, the entire moving process can take as little as a single day.
When it comes to finding office movers in Penobscot, ME who respect the consumer’s time, space and get the job done without delays, there’s no better option than Wirefly.
