According to a study published by Gitnux, approximately 61% of people rank moving home as their most stressful life event. This is largely down to the number of decisions and individual tasks that need to be carried out, explains the guide. As such, Movers.com sets out the advantages and disadvantages of completing a DIY move vs. hiring a team of professionals, providing insight into affordability, workload and security.
A clear benefit of DIY moving is its affordability, says Movers.com. “By moving on your own, you will incur only the expenses of packing materials and perhaps a rented U-Haul or other rental truck.” Completing a DIY move also allows for more control, such as how possessions are handled and how the truck is packed. Similarly, DIY movers are in full control of their schedule, explains the guide, removing any concerns regarding company availability or cancellation fees.
Despite this level of control, there are some disadvantages to consider when planning a DIY move. As explained in the guide, moving without the help of professionals is physically demanding and requires a lot of hard work. “If you are not in the moving industry, chances are you don't know the proper procedures for moving heavy items, protecting your furniture, and loading or driving a moving truck,” says Movers.com. Therefore, belongings are more at risk of being damaged in the move, as well as an increased risk of injury for homeowners.
Movers.com points to the expertise of moving teams as one of the main benefits of using a professional company. Trained in the latest moving techniques and materials, professional movers take responsibility for all the heavy lifting, freeing up homeowners to focus on tasks such as setting up utilities and changing their mailing address.
However, readers are reminded of the increased costs of using a professional moving company and are warned to conduct appropriate research to avoid potential scams. Those looking to hire professional movers can use Movers.com’s extensive database to find reputable moving companies in their area.
