Bothell Moving Tips - When Price Is A Concern

Moving can be a challenging experience in itself, and if price is a concern you can use these Bothell moving tips to help save a few dollars.

 

1. Make some extra money for the move

To help cover some of your moving costs hold a garage sale. You have probably uncovered quite a few things that you are ready to get rid of when you started packing for the move, so now would be a great time to sell them at a garage sale.

You'll have less to move by selling the items now and won’t have to end up taking them with you, plus you'll be able to pocket some money as well. You can put up a free classified ad in Bothell on the Internet and make a homemade sign that you can put up at a busy corner near your home. Let your neighbors, friends and families know about the garage sale and hopefully you'll be able to sell quite a few things to make some quick cash.

2. Rent your own truck

While it is a lot more work, renting your own truck and taking care of the loading and unloading yourself can save you a small fortune when you are moving. This is an option that should be considered seriously if you are tight on money and need to save as much as possible.

You can learn more about moving on your own by consulting different sites on the Internet. These sites will show you how to minimize damage during the moving process. You can ask your friends or relatives to help you with the move or even hire some people to help you load up the truck. It will still be more cost-effective to handle your own move, even if you have to hire some people to load and unload the moving truck.

3. Do comparison shopping

The sooner you start preparing for a move the more money you'll be able to save. You'll be able to call different moving companies in Bothell to get price quotes if you can't make the move on your own. You can also find out how much it would be to rent to truck and have the time to work out the size of truck needed.

By getting your move set up early, you'll be able to get the best prices and lock-in a date for your move. If you leave it until the last minute, there is a good chance that you will have to pay more for your move.

These are a few Bothell moving tips that you can use to help save money on your next move. Plan early, rent your own truck if at all possible and hold a garage sale to make extra money to cover some of the costs.
