You Don't Know Me, but .....
Hello, my name is Jan and along with my husband Ron, we have over 25 years (each) in the moving business. We will help you understand exactly what is going to happen with your relocation so you will be prepared.
This is a stressful time in ANYONE'S life. But you have a terrific resource right here in front of you. We will help you get through this smoothly and successfully, whether this is your first move or just one of many! And it is all FREE !!
A Common Scenario:
Picture this: Your spouse has just received a promotion! Yeaaa! GREAT! But the promotion requires that you relocate. Oh, oh, not so great !! But you both agree the promotion is worth it.
So, here we go! Let's JUST-GET-MOVING!!!
Two Situations:
You pay for it yourself and you do the work. (self-mover)
Your employer pays (you ARE being promoted, you know!) and the Moving Company does all the work! (a corporate move)
Start With A Timeline
Start planning early, at least 1 - 2 months before the move. A Moving Timeline will help you stay focused and organized. So now you're less stressed and able to save time & money.
Now that you're more knowledgeable, everything will progress smoothly.
Search Box At Top Of Page
Did you notice the Search box at the top of this page? You can use it to search within just this website.
Maybe there is information that you read at one point, but now you don't remember where it was that you read it. For example, maybe you want to review "Binding" and "Non-Binding Moving Estimates". Just type the phrase into our search box and click on SEARCH and it will take you to the results.
Make sure the "Just Get Moving" button is chosen to search within this site, but you can also search the whole WWW if you check the "The Web" button.
