Saving Money On Your Bridgeport, CT Move

• Going the DIY route is always an option, explains the Movers.com report, and recommends Budget and U-Haul as two of the most cost-effective truck rentals.
• If you do decide to work with a professional mover, the company recommends getting rid of all the unnecessary things before requesting an estimate.

“Since the price of your move is often determined by the total weight of your goods, you’ll pay more than just the physical toll of moving these things,” explains the report. “If you’re renting a truck or freight space, having fewer things will always cost less to move. You’ll find that a small closet purge or garage cleanout can do wonders for your motivation. Throw out or recycle unusable items, then find a local second-hand store or charitable organization that will take your usable, unneeded goods.”

• Using free materials can also lower moving costs - and the report recommends asking local stores for free boxes, using old blankets to wrap sensitive items, and replacing packaging paper with old newspapers.
• An often-overlooked strategy to save money is moving in the off-season. Moving companies typically offer lower rates between October and May, since most people choose to move during the summer.
• Moving mid-month will also reduce costs - as will booking the move up to six months in advance.

Pre-Screened Movers For Bridgeport, CT Moves

The report recommends asking for quotes from multiple movers, and opting for the one that offers best value for money.
