Corporate / Business Relocation Services

Many companies find that moving their business to another location will bring in profits and increase their customer base. Once all the details have been worked out and the strategy is in place, a corporate relocation service with reliable movers is another imperative. Using a moving company is a cheaper option than using a truck to ferry goods across cities. Here is a checklist to help you choose the right movers and packers for the job.

Inspection

When shifting the corporate to another location, the moving company will inspect the items that need transporting. Never accept a telephonic quotation. During the inspection, the movers have to be provided with all the details about the items (even the minutest of articles).

Get an estimate

Once the company has taken into account the number of belongings, the next step is the estimate. Precise information must be provided to the movers. In case the new place has obstacles like stairs and escalators, the moving company has to organize for more help. This will help them navigate the items with care. This is very relevant for both parties so that there is no extra cost once the delivery has been made.

Written information

A licensed moving company will provide all the details in writing right from the price structure, the expected time of delivery, the duration and insurance plans and other issues. Any estimate must be provided on a letterhead that has the address and telephone numbers of the company. If they charge by the hour or a flat rate, get the information down before signing on the dotted line.

Negotiation

Finding the right firm for the job is never easy- source out a number of companies that provide moving and packing services. By doing so, you have a fair idea of what to expect and can use this as a bargaining chip. Moving companies do expect some form of negotiation and provide a leeway for clients, especially corporate companies relocating to other cities.

Payment structure

Companies that expect a large payment at the outset are not the ones that you want to handle your shipment. Reliable movers and packers do ask for an advance payment from the client, to ensure that they are not shafted later. Any company that does away with receipts and accepts ‘cash only’ payments are unscrupulous and you will be wise to avoid them, especially when it comes to claims and delivery of the goods.

Understand the terminology

Protecting yourself and the goods while in transit is of paramount importance. Before signing, find out about the insurance coverage and the deductibles in the price structure. Replacement value protection is what you require and not depreciated value. The former entitles the client to be replaced by the damaged or lost items at the value determined by the customer.

Claim settlement

Movers, most often have their own insurance plans in place. It is relevant to get the information through written material about the replacement claim process. Ensure that you get the facts right about the time limit along with the liability clause.
