When a person in Halifax, MA is planning to move to another area within the same state, it’s considered an intrastate move, also known as a local move. Just because it’s called a local move doesn’t mean it needs to be a short trip. In fact, an intrastate move could be much longer than an out-of-state move. The deciding factor is whether the moving route goes out of state.
One thing that’s important for people to keep in mind is that the entire route must be within the state. The moment the moving company travels out of state, the move is then governed under the long-distance moving jurisdiction. This is true whether the moving company made a wrong turn and went out of state or if they took a route that led out of state to save time. More information about long-distance moves is available on the Wirefly long-distance moving page.
The preparation for an intrastate move and a long-distance move are fairly similar. Consumers need to be figure out the logistics the same way and do the same amount of research. When a consumer plans the move in advance and compares their moving company options, they can get the best value and make sure they choose a reputable service.
Factors to consider when choosing a moving company include the size of truck needed, whether the consumer or the movers will pack everything, if a storage facility in the new city is necessary, and if the movers have proper insurance and licensing. With Wirefly, the latter is never a concern, because only moving companies with licenses and insurance are listed. The consumer should map out a budget to track all their potential moving costs and get quotes from a variety of moving companies in Halifax, MA that they can compare. Wirefly can help the consumer evaluate moving companies and see which is the best option.
If you cross just one state line or many state lines, your move is now officially considered a long distance move. If you briefly cross state lines to get to your destination quicker, it is now considered a long distance move, even if you're living in the same state. This phenomenon is usually seen in states with uneven state lines like Idaho, Minnesota, Texas, and Wisconsin. Every long distance moving company in Halifax, MA have to have a license from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). This Administration is responsible for regulating the residential moving and trucking industry.
