'Intrastate Moves', or local moves, is a term denoted for people moving from Grand Haven, MI to somewhere else within the same state. While speaking with a moving company, there are some things to remember to ensure your move remains a 'local' move. Whether it's done by mistake or to save time, if the moving company travels outside the state line while moving your possessions, then it is automatically considered a long-distance move.
It is responsible to be prepared for long distance concerns, even if you are moving within your state. Also make sure to study-up to make sure the moving service you choose is reputable and giving you the biggest bang for your buck. Here are some points to consider: How many and what size truck(s) will you need? Do you want to pack up all your possessions, or do you want the movers to pack for you? Will your new home have space for all your belongings, or will you need to rent a storage space? Have you ensured that the hired movers are properly licensed and insured? (All Wirefly's movers are properly licensed and insured.) Have you set a budget and listed all costs involved in your move? Have you gathered moving quotes from different companies in Grand Haven, MI so that you make the best-informed decision? Wirefly is designed to help you with every single one of these questions.
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 Grand Haven, MI 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 Grand Haven, MI 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.
Moving from one country to another can be quite challenging. One of the greatest challenges is moving one’s belongings from the old home to the new. If you’re planning an international move, you may be discouraged by the international moving companies that don’t seem to be reliable or able to handle every part of your international move from Grand Haven, MI into another country. We can help.

The process of moving an office in Grand Haven, MI 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 Grand Haven, MI who respect the consumer’s time, space and get the job done without delays, there’s no better option than Wirefly.
