Tips for hiring movers

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT ENTRUSTING ALL OF YOUR WORLDLY POSSESSIONS to someone so they can get them from your old apartment to your new one. Do you know what you need? We do; here are our tips for hiring movers.

possible. Ask us all of your questions before signing the contract: Insurance and liability, additional charges, any exemptions.

1. A GOOD, DETAILED CONTRACT. A contract ensures and outlines all expectations. This is particularly true when you hire professional movers. You’re obviously the “who,” and your gorgeous new apartment is obviously the “why,” but we also need to know exactly “what,”“where,” and “when” in order to transport your items to your new place. There are usually a lot of details, and finding out about them on moving day is counterproductive. Think ahead.

And speaking of costs, we need to know well ahead of time if you want us to provide the service of packing. Deciding this two days before the move likely won’t work. If you’ve been quoted only on moving and not on packing, you’ll need a new contract that reflects the cost of packing. If you do the packing yourself, read the contract as to whether or how much your items are covered, should damages occur.

2. DO YOUR RESEARCH. The first thing to do is find a reputable mover. Check online with the Better Business Bureau or the Canadian Association of Movers, and of course, ask friends and family members to refer companies they have used.

RentersGuide.ca

Select a company that has a tried-and-true track record. When we meet customers to arrange their move, we need to know about everything they expect to RentersGuide.ca take so we can prepare as accurate an estimate as

3. TELL US EVERYTHING. If there’s an extra stop to drop something off, it’s extra time and will add to the cost – plus we need to pack the item so it’s accessible. Let us know of an item that may be difficult to move – or any concerns you have. You don’t want to find out on moving day that there are extra charges or unmovable items. 4. GET AN ESTIMATE. In many ways, estimating is a science. Computers help, but the results are only as good as the information we input. Telling us on moving day that you forgot you want to take the shed in the backyard can hold things up for hours. It will also add to your costs.

It is our responsibility as professional movers to ask the right questions, but until we develop ESP, we need to rely on you to explain what you need from us. A contract protects you as much as the movers, but only if you read it, understand it and abide by it.

How NOT to meet your neighbours

WHEN IT COMES TO YOUR HOME SOME THINGS ARE UNAVOIDABLE, like paying rent, taking out the trash and living right next door to someone. Yes that’s right, I’m talking about your neighbours. Unless you live on a private island, chances are you have a neighbour and even have multiple neighbours – those who live next door, down the hall, on the other side of the wall, on top of you and below you. Love them or hate them, you can’t live without them – or at least avoid living right next door to them. As we know, first impressions can often leave a lasting impression. In order to avoid being ‘that neighbour,’ here’s how not to meet your RentersGuide.ca neighbours. 1. WHILE HOGGING THE ELEVATOR: No one takes too kindly to being late. Avoid hogging the elevators at peak hours such as in the morning and at 5 pm. That means don’t have a piece of furniture RentersGuide.ca

delivered Wednesday morning or hold the elevator for your kid who forgot their lunch. Larry on the next floor will forever hate you. 2. THROUGH YOUR LANDLORD: If your landlord calls and asks if you have met your new neighbour, it’s not because he’s interested in throwing a dinner party, it’s because you managed to disturb them beyond reason. Avoid a noise complaint by always keeping noise levels in your home to a minimum. 3. IN YOUR CAR: Whether you’re in your buildings parking lot or in a 5 kilometre radius of your home, watch who you honk your horn at. No one ever gets away with disguising a rude gesture with a wave. 4. IN YOUR UNDERWEAR: If you’re grabbing coffee on your balcony of just stepping outside your door to pick up the morning newspaper, make sure your robe is on and secured tightly. Meeting your neighbours in your underwear will not only be awkward, but will have them either filing a report or commenting on the incident for as long as they live next to you. 5. PAST 11 PM: If you live in close proximity to anyone, whatever it is you have to do, do it before 11 pm. This includes taking out the trash, vacuuming, hanging pictures and attempting to fix the front door. If ever you meet your neighbour past 11 pm, just know that he automatically dislikes you.
