Most asked questions
What is the best time to move? 🕘
Are you planning to move and still unsure which date would be best? Then, you are in the right place! Choosing the date for the move depends on several factors such as the budget and your needs and preferences.
If you are looking for the best days of the week to move, remember that most people plan their moves on weekends when they usually don’t work, so Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday might be the best. You could also get a better deal on these days.
On the other hand, moving in winter would be the right decision if you are short on cash. With all that harsh weather and snow outside, there will definitely be less demand for moving companies; therefore, you can expect cheaper moving rates.
How much to tip movers? 
If you have already chosen to engage professional movers to help you with your move, one of the most frequently asked questions is “How much to tip them?” It’s pretty common to leave tips at restaurants and bars, and it usually ranges from 15 to 20 percent of the total bill. Tipping is also common in the moving industry, and the general rule of thumb is 15% – 20% of your total cost for large moves and 5%–10% for smaller local moves. But, before you make a decision on how much the tip should be, you should take some things into account – the complexity of the move, the success of your move, the size of your relocation, and the attitude of your movers in general. Tips are not mandatory during the moving process, but it’s a nice gesture to thank movers for a job well done.
