What are the factors that can affect your moving cost?
When we plan a move, the first thing we consider is the cost of your move. The cost of any move is determined after considering several factors including-
Total miles coveredThe distance between the current location and the destination will determine the cost of moving. In one moving quote multiple costs are added to determine the accurate moving cost like fuel cost, truck type and size, and demand of location.
Size of your propertyA large property means more household items. When you have to move large-sized heavy items then there will be a requirement for a large truck means a higher cost of transportation.
Moving servicesEach move is different and while moving you might need special services to handle the belongings. Our moving services include- packing-unpacking, loading unloading and transportation. Additional service can add some extra cost to your moving cost.
Add on services service like shuttle service, junk removal service, assembling and reassembling services adds extra cost to your moving estimate.
Date of the movePick your moving date wisely- Summer moves and weekday moves are expensive. Moving in winter can be difficult but it can save a lot of money on your move.
Storage serviceStorage services are required for storing extra household item, or for a short move. This is not included in the moving cost.
Moving insuranceA piece of paper that will provide safety to the items while they are in transit. Buy moving insurance from a third party for a secure move. All these factors determine the moving cost. So, when you set your moving budget keep all these factors in mind. -

Moving to Alaska from other states in USA- What are your options?
Moving from one state to another means a long-distance move. So, if you are planning to move to Alaska from other states of USA then you will be having an interstate move. But do you have any idea how you will be moving to Alaska?
Here, are the options for your state-to-state move-
DIY Moving- In DIY moving you will be the responsible person for everything from, packing-unpacking, loading-unloading to driving. Everything else can be managed with some help from family and friends but driving across the state border can be tiring. You might wear out with driving over thousands of miles and even it might not be safe.
Full-Service Moving- One of the best approaches to plan a long-distance move. Hiring a professional moving company to take plan, organize and execute your move. A team of experts will pack-unpack, load-unload and transport your household valuables to Alaska with complete care and safety. You just have to relax and focus on other important tasks.
Partial Moving- In this type of move, you are on your own except for loading and unloading. You are responsible for packing, unpacking and driving the truck. This can be tiring with a lesser chance of physical injury. This can be cost efficient but can be difficult as you have to drive a truck for hundreds of miles.

Hiring a moving company for Alaska move? Keep these factors in mind
So, finally decided to move with a reputable and qualified moving company. If yes, then keep some factors in mind before hiring a moving company -
Track record of the company If a moving company is new then it is hard to find the relevant information about the company and its track record. And if the moving company has been in business for several years now then you can easily find some details online. You can check the records of the moving company on platforms like FMCSA and BBB. On these websites, you can check the performance of the company, any complaints or handling of queries and complaints.
Recommendations from family and friends Once you pick the mover, research about it online but this cannot be completely trusted. So, ask about the mover to those people whom you trust more- your family and friends. You can ask your colleagues, family members, and friends about the moving company. As people move from time to time, they have experience with moving companies. Whatever they explain to you is more relevant than the reviews available on online platforms.
License and Insurance Licenses and insurance define the status of a moving company or carrier. If a moving company is a scam or broker then they might not have the insurance or moving license. Check out the status of the active licenses for the company and also the insurance. As for a state-to-state move, the moving companies must have a USDOT Number as well as an MC Number. You can also trust the Better Business Bureau data for relevant information about their licensing.
Services offered Verify whether the moving company is providing all the required moving services. Full-service moving companies offer- packing-unpacking, loading-unloading, driving and packing supplies. If you have any special moving requirements like vehicle transportation, storage and more.
Pricing If you hire a professional moving company, then they will provide you with transparent rates on your move. They will offer a moving estimate that will display all the costs included. The costs mentioned in the moving quote are the base price and any additional service charges will be extra and added to the moving cost.
Availability This is one of the major factors to keep in mind while booking a mover. The availability of the choice of your mover on the preferred moving date. If you plan a move during the peak season then there are chances that mover might not be available. So, pick a moving date by keeping all the points in mind- weekdays are cheaper and weekends are busy and expensive.
Storage While moving you might need the storage service to keep your belongings safe. Discuss the storage requirement with your mover before signing any contract.

What are the major points that I should check while hiring a moving company?

How long does it take to move my belongings to the new address?

How much should I tip my mover?
Tipping your mover is completely your choice and no one can force you. If you feel that the moving crew work hard and makes your move a breeze then yes you can tip them Ideally, for a local move you can tip $20-$30 and for a long-distance move you can tip $50. However in a long-distance move, you have to give tips separately for the loading crew and unloading crew. -
Is it a good idea to get rid of items while moving?
Yes, if you are moving to a new state and there are a few items in your house that you no longer need then get rid of them.

How to recognise a legitimate moving company?
There are several ways to determine whether the moving company is legitimate or not-
- Check their licenses and insurance
