Steps to finding a quality moving company

So while you’re thinking about taking that next step in the moving process, here are some good places to start, including the proper steps to finding a good quality moving company?

  1. The best referral comes from a friend or family member who has recently had a successful move with a company. If you don’t have a referral like this, the next step would be to get on line and look at different moving companies.  Their website, reviews on Google, etc.
  2. Once you’ve decided on a few companies, give them each a call and schedule a free, in-home written estimate. CAUTION – If the moving company doesn’t send out an estimator, DO NOT USE THEM!
  3. At the time of the estimate, be sure to ask any questions you might have. Get a feel for the estimator and use the company that you feel the most comfortable with.
  4. Each step of this process should be stress free. They should answer their phone, call you back, show up on time, be polite and answer your questions.

Senior Communities

Did you know House to Home Moving specializes in senior moving?  When House to Home Moving started in 2010 there was a need for specialized senior relocation.  We started by providing transfers for senior communities.  The service was originally for seniors with dementia.  We would recreate the apartments by taking pictures and place the items in the new apartment exactly like they were in the old apartment.  This would make it easy for the transition.  Once everyone caught on that we provided this service, House to Home Moving started doing these transfers for a majority of the senior communities throughout the Sacramento area.  This started the rapid growth of our company.  Soon House to Home Moving had built a reputation in the senior industry as the “Senior Movers” in the area.
