Your behavior sets the tone from your end and creates an environment conducive to a good relationship. Things may go smoother and problems may be more easily resolved. Here are a few steps you can take to be a good customer when working with a local mover: <ul> <li>Be clear and upfront with the moving company. Let them know what you want from your move, the long-term outcome you’re expecting and specific ways they can satisfy your expectations. Most problems with local movers occur because of a breakdown in communication. By being clear about your expectations and theirs, you can avoid most conflicts.</li> <li>When your mover contacts you, return their calls promptly to keep things on schedule.</li> <li>Ask your mover if you should call to check on their progress or if they will call you with updates.</li> <li>Be sure your service representative has a phone number where they can reach you at all times while they’re moving. The work will move along more smoothly if your moving company can reach you for any necessary updates, questions or work authorizations.</li> <li>Pay your moving invoice promptly.</li> </ul> Here are some additional things you can do to simplify the moving process: Begin organizing your move as soon as you know you’ll be moving. Get a notebook and put important phone numbers in it. You’ll also need to keep track of important documents such as maps and brochures of services. Having everything in one place will help reduce the stress already associated with moving and enable you to quickly answer questions. Get rid of any household items that you don’t want. Sort through your closets, rooms and garages for anything you might want to give or throw away. Don’t pack every item that you own. Everyone collects some junk, and now is the time to get rid of it. You might even consider holding a garage sale to get rid of some of the items you don’t want to move. Moving costs are figured by weight and there’s no point in wasting money shipping things that you don’t want. <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/" target="_self">Use Diamond Certified Resource to find top rated companies.</a> Local, Top Rated Diamond Certified Companies Related to Your Topic <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/contra-costa-movers/" target="_self">Contra Costa County Movers</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/marin-movers/" target="_self">Marin County Movers</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/alameda-movers/" target="_self">Alameda County Movers</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/napa-movers/" target="_self">Napa County Movers</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/san-francisco-movers/" target="_self">San Francisco Movers</a> Related Articles <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/Guide/Moving/" target="_self">The Essential Guide to Moving & Hauling Services</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/find-expert-advice/" target="_self">Get Expert Advice From Owners of Top</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/find-expert-advice/" target="_self">Rated Local Companies</a> <a href="https://www.diamondcertified.org/membership/" target="_self">Become a Diamond Certified Preferred Member (Always Free)</a>
