Relocation is common and inevitable at times. Chances are, you’ve found a better place to live at or an office space that can sustain your growing business. And when the time comes, you may need help to move some of your belongings. That’s when a commercial moving company like LCH Logistics comes into the picture.

Hiring a moving company to assist with your relocation may relieve you of the stress as professional movers are trained to handle your belongings with care. They are also equipped with the skills and expertise to ensure you have a smooth relocation. Ahead, we’ll be sharing some of the benefits of hiring a commercial moving company.

1. Hassle-free

When it comes to moving, you’re likely to seek help from the people you know like your family or friends. But it can be quite a hassle considering that they’ll be required to spend their precious time to help you pack and move.

Same goes to office relocation. Asking your employees to help relocate office equipment is a no-no. You may end up causing more damage to some of your company’s biggest assets (employees and office equipment) if they don’t have the slightest moving know-how.

Professional movers, on the other hand, will fare better in helping you with your moving needs. You’ll have people who offer their time and services to help you pack and move your stuff without grousing about how much stuff you have or the tedious packing and moving process.

2. Peace of mind

Planning for a relocation can be stressful and overwhelming at times. You’ll have tons of things to do which includes packing and moving all your stuff, and thereafter cleaning the space.

Hiring a moving company to help with your relocation can reduce the stress as professional movers will help pack and move your stuff with care. That way, you’ll only have to worry about doing the cleaning afterwards. They’ll also come up with a suitable action plan to handle your belongings so that you don’t need to worry about packing the small and fragile stuff.

3. Reliability

Have a feeling that your family or friends can be unreliable when you need their help? Well, that’s when you should take the hint and hire a commercial moving company instead. Your family or friends may bail on you of a sudden, leaving you with little help to move all your stuff. When that happens, it’ll be difficult to seek immediate help.

Professional movers will never bail out on you once you sign the paperwork for their moving services. They’ll also be held accountable should anything happen during the relocation.

4. Efficiency

Relocating all your stuff can be a tedious process. If you’re the kind who likes to procrastinate, it’ll take you some time to pack and move all your stuff if you opt for a self-move. You may also need a longer time to unpack and organise all your stuff.

Instead of a self-move, hiring a commercial moving company can reduce the time taken to pack and move all your stuff. As professional movers pride themselves on delivering their services within the stipulated timeframe, you can rest assured that all your stuff will be delivered in a timely and orderly manner. The more the merrier. In your case, the more people you can get to help with relocation, the faster the process.

5. Safety

Moving all your stuff without causing any damage requires proper technical know-how as well as physical strength. That said, if you’re not familiar with the cables and wiring of your electrical appliances, it’s best to leave it to the professionals.

By hiring a commercial moving company, you’ll have people who know how to pack and move your electrical appliances without harming anyone in the process. Given the physical strength that most professional movers have, you needn’t worry about lifting a heavy box when they’re around. They also have the proper moving equipment such as hand trucks and moving pads to move the big and heavy furniture or appliances.

6. Cost-efficient

Self-move can be cost-efficient but you may have to spend more on the packing supplies, truck rental, petrol fee, etc. That way, you may end up underestimating the cost of your relocation.

If you’re considering to hire a commercial moving company, you’ll first be given a quote based on your moving distance, packing materials, equipment rental and insurance (which is optional). You’ll then have a clear and transparent outlook of what you’ll be paying for. This is contrary to the popular belief that hiring a commercial moving company comes with a high cost.

Relocation can be more challenging than it looks. With all the planning, packing and moving, it’s no surprise that the process can take a toll on you for several days. Instead of betting on your health, why not place your bet on people who have the experience in moving?
