How to choose a mover:
Congratulations! You’ve sold your house and are ready to move on to a new life in your next home. But if years’ worth of living won’t fit into the back of your pickup truck, it’s time to consider hiring professional movers. Your friends will thank you for it. They may even recommend a few.
Personal recommendations can be a good place to start. Since you should get estimates from at least three moving companies, you can also ask your real estate agent, thumb through the phone book or search online. Just beware that, although there are reputable moving companies on the Internet, there are also a lot of scams. To reduce the risk, your search should focus on companies with offices in your city and companies that have been in business at least 10 years.
Information you need to obtain and verify includes:

• The full company name, address and phone number
• DOT and MC license numbers (so you can ensure they have the license authority and insurance to legally move you)
• How long they’ve been in business

Check with your secretary of state’s office for the Articles of Incorporation to verify basic company information. SaferSys, the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration’s web site, provides reports that include company information, as well as details about the size of the company, if it’s authorized for hire and for interstate operation, inspection records, licensing and insurance.
Once you have verified the company’s validity, you need to investigate its reputation. The FMCSA has a Safety Violation and Consumer Complaints hotline (1-888-368-7238) you can consult and there are various message boards, such as MovingScam.com, you can check. It’s always a good idea to contact the Better Business Bureau. Finally, ask for references if they weren’t referred by someone you know.

1) Do not load too much weight into one box. If you feel it has become heavy, divide the contents into two boxes. Remember that though they might seem sturdy, the taping on a box cannot withstand a lot of weight.

2) On all sides of each storage item, write down what it contains and to what kind of room it belongs. Do not write just on one side. Sometimes, and to your bad luck, that side will be on top, and ,thus, if you wish to remove just one item, you will have a problem.

3) Books, magazines and other paper files can get very heavy. They are easy to pack, but do not overload them. It will be near to impossible to pick them up.

4) Wrap all paper objects such as books and magazines in plastic bags or plastic coverings before placing them in the box. This will prevent them either from accumulating moisture or from getting wet in case it rains.

4) Wrap each and every item with either paper, plastic foam or old cloth. This will keep them separate and easy to unwrap.

5) For delicate items, use extra paper. Wrap paper around each item several times. Note that this wrapping will ensure that your chinaware or crystal glasses remain intact.

6) Before placing any kind of wooden furniture into self storage, wax them well with wood varnish. This prevents moisture from affecting the wood. Likewise, if your furniture can be dismantled easily, do so. It will prolong the life of that piece. If you dismantle furniture, collect the nuts and bolts of each item into a plastic bag and tape it firmly to the dismantled set. In addition, place thick cloth such as old carpets between wooden pieces to prevent one scratching the other.

7) Wrap your mattresses in the special bags available at any hardware store. This will prevent them from absorbing moisture and from losing shape.
Take into consideration that the stuff you place in self storage might freeze. If you think this will cause some of your items to break, arrange for a air-conditioned storage where the temperature is controlled.

9) If you are storing food, place them in jars or other plastic containers. Do not keep them only in a plastic paper. Rodents will get to them.

10) Store all you electronic equipment in their original boxes. You can try and pass by electronic stores and look for similar size boxes if you do not have yours. Otherwise, wrap them as if you were wrapping glass or crystal.

11) Don’t place compact discs in plastic wrap because if the storage facility heats up, these might destroy the disc.

12) Do you have any object made of metal or a similar alloy? Apply a thin coating of oil before you wrap them. You can use the cheapest oil available.

13) Place some moth balls inside the boxes where you store your clothes.

14) Cupboards are generally bulky and take up a lot of room. Organize it so that you can place linen and other clothes in them for storage.

We recently donated the use of one of our Cool Box storage units to a non-profit charity organization called the Shyann Kindness Project, www.shyannkindness.org. The mission of The Shyann Kindness Project is to pass on kindness by educating, supporting and encouraging children in stressful economic, social and medical situations, along with providing guidance and support to caregivers of children with special needs. They required the use of a mobile storage pod in order to move their stock of supplies into a warehouse that was newly provided to them by another kind donor. We are always happy to donate and offer discounts to charitable organizations and SKP took the time to thank us in a very special way; they made us a video to illustrate what our storage unit was used for! This video is very sweet and we wanted to share it with all of you… enjoy!
