How Are Long-Distance Relocations Different From Local Moves? Experts Weigh In
Not sure if you’re ready for your upcoming long-distance move? Consider everything that needs to be accounted for and follow these expert tips to organize your preparations.
(firmenpresse) - Moving is moving, no matter where you’re going, right? Not quite, experts suggest. Moving out-of-state comes with its own challenges… and its own benefits. The Nashville-based crew at True Friends Moving Company maps out the differences. Whether you're moving to Florida or beyond, keep in mind these points long before moving day arrives.
Complex PaperworkLong-distance moves can be far more complex and time-sensitive than local relocations. You’re moving far away, after all. Did you know that moving your belongings across state lines means specific paperwork needs to be finalized in line with federal regulations? And that’s just the start.
Bill of LadingInventory ListChange OrderInsurance PolicyIt’s a lot to keep track of on top of everything else that comes with moving. That’s why your best move is to start early and get all this listed out beforehand so you won’t forget anything, experts say.
Tax DeductionsLong-distance moves also offer the potential of certain benefits, namely tax deductions. True Friends Moving Company explains this point in greater detail…
“If your move is related to starting a new job or relocating for work, you may be eligible for certain tax deductions. Experienced long-distance movers can guide you on the potential deductions and provide you with the necessary documentation to claim them, though we recommend consulting with a tax professional for specific advice.”
Special PackingYou’re about to spend a lengthy amount of time on the road. And so is your stuff.
That’s exactly why everything needs to be stored and protected in preparation for the journey ahead. Do you have valuable furniture? A cursory sheet of paper just won’t do. It’ll have to be disassembled and wrapped up to safeguard against any bumps or knocks in the moving van.
Remember, you're not just moving down the street. The longer your belongings spend in storage, the higher the risk of damage - unless you’re careful. Pack everything properly, and ensure your movers are ready for the long haul. It’s a lot of work, no doubt…
…and that’s where professionals come in.
Professional GuidanceRegardless of your origin or destination, you should look for a company who’s completed similar moves recently. Worried about the costs? Reputable pros will be ready to provide estimates factoring in distance, cargo weight, and other aspects - so you won’t be going in blind to the price.
Are you planning a move from coast to coast - or just to a neighboring state? Keep in mind the above considerations, and don't forget that many skilled professionals specialize in long-distance moving projects just like yours.
