How to Help Your Welland Movers

Welland Moving Company Bob the Mover

While it may not seem like a common thought—there are things you can do to help your Welland movers, as well as things you can do to hamper them. In this blog we’ll talk about the things you can do to help. Let’s ask ourselves a few questions.

Should I leave the movers alone?

Generally, you want to be out of the way as much as possible. While you may want to help, the Welland movers will be able to handle any job by themselves. Being present is encouraged but try to avoid doing the lifting by yourself. At Bob the Mover, our staff are professionally trained and have been working to build chemistry over the course of years. Adding a lesser experienced or knowledgeable hand into the mix can have bad results.

While you should stay at a safe distance from the crew of your Welland moving company, you should not however leave the premises. For questions that may arise or to give directions you’ll still need to be on hand. You can help in ways other than physically.

Should everything be boxed?

Some items simply won’t fit into boxes. Try to pack small and miscellaneous things into boxes of appropriate sizes. Try to make sure things that won’t fit in boxes are still wrapped or packaged somehow.

Labelling boxes when you’re finished is important to help any Welland moving company assist you in your move. Try to put your expensive items on your persons. Make sure appliances are disconnected.

What to do while waiting?

Before your Welland moving company shows up, you’ve got a few things to do.

Clear the hallways of any tripping hazards. Carrying things can be difficult—especially when they’re heavy. Tripping with heavy items isn’t fun. Your Welland movers would agree.

Unplug all electronics, appliances, and take care of any disassembly required. While some moving companies in Welland may offer disassembly service for a fee—it’s better to take care of what you haven’t agreed to beforehand. Tie down, tape or strap any loose articles that may be in the way.

Remove any items from the walls or other hard to reach places.

It’s especially important to unplug, defrost, and clean your fridge or freezer before your moving company in Welland arrives. This will prevent leaks which could damage the movers’ blankets, truck, or your items.

Give food?

It’s unnecessary but appreciated. Moving companies in Welland are not expecting food but will feel great if it’s available. Water is especially appreciated in the summer months.

Should you tip your movers?

I can’t sit here and say it’s a requirement—but every tip is genuinely appreciated and goes directly to putting food on the tables of your Welland movers. It’s entirely optional however—do as you see fit.

Bob the Mover was an excellent moving company to work with. They were courteous, prompt and there were no hidden fees or surprises. They worked expertly to efficiently pack my storage unit, ensuring that my belongings fit securely and safely, making the most of the space.

Incredible moving company. Definitely top shelf. You can't really ask for any better. These guys were super professional, very friendly, quick, arrived right on time and took care of all my stuff, no extra scratches 😉 We had some interesting conversations along the way about similar interests and had fun while still getting the job done in a quick and timely fashion. This guy hires good men, the screening process must be rigorous. If you want your stuff handled with care and consideration, call Bob the Movers! You won't regret it!

November 19th, 2022 - the day of my move from my home in Niagara Falls to my new home in Thorold, we found ourselves in a foot of snow with more on the way, high winds and extreme cold!! The four young men arrived on time and were ready for the hard work of loading and carefully taking my furniture onto their truck. (Using moving blankets and strapping, mindful of not damaging the flooring and walls and my furniture) Arrived at my new address in a timely manner and again taking care moving all furniture and setting up beds and other furniture requiring set up! One piece, a large leather couch required 2 men to carefully maneuver through a narrow doorway at the bottom of the stairs into the family room needing at least a half hour of time without damage to walls, ceiling, doorway, flooring or furniture! Remarkable young men. I’d highly recommend “Bob The Mover” for your next move!
