Looking to meet the demands of a growing globalised world, Columbia World-Wide Movers was established back in 1994. Succeeding in our aim to exceed the expectations of every customer, we are now one of the leading moving companies in Cyprus. Moving of course can be a stressful time, but you can eliminate nearly all that stress by choosing the right moving company. Here are our top tips for choosing a moving company you can truly rely on…
- Trusted recommendations
The first step is to ask around. Ask everyone you know whose opinions you trust about their experiences with moving companies. Make a list of those that are recommended and those you’re advised to avoid.
- Good testimonials and customer reviews
Next, head to the Internet and read customer reviews. It’s important to read a wide selection of reviews, both good and bad, to get a full overview of each business. Testimonials can offer useful information too.
- Check for license and insurance
Perhaps the most important aspect of choosing a moving company, but one that many people simply overlook, is to ensure that your movers are licensed and insured. Without these in place, your movers will not be liable should they lose or damage your valuable possessions.
- Are the rates transparent?
Your moving company should be clear regarding the costs of your move and they should outline any additional costs you may be subject to, such as any extra fees for packing materials, or added costs for moving particularly bulky items. If a moving company isn’t happy to answer all your questions regarding costs, then you’re right to be wary.
- Do they meet your own individual needs?
Your moving needs will be unique to you, so you need to ensure that the moving company you choose can fulfil all these needs perfectly. If you need your movers to also pack and unpack your belongings, you must check that they offer this service. Perhaps you’re looking for a company that specialises in handling valuable antiques or moving large and delicate items such as a grand piano or sculptures. You may want a service that will ship your possessions overseas, or perhaps you’re between homes and need the contents of your house put into storage for a while. You’ll save a lot of time if you have a checklist of your requirements that you can run through when you contact a moving company.
