Packing your dish box correctly when preparing to move.

Resources & Tips

Packing your dish box correctly when preparing to move.

By ecmmovers|2023-05-15T19:39:41-04:00April 25, 2023|Resources & Tips|

Moving can be overwhelming if you are not prepared for it. In this post I’m going to tell you how to pack your dish cartons correctly if you are doing a self pack for your upcoming out of state move. It is vital that the items in your dish boxes are packed correctly to make sure there is no damages that couls occur from an improper packed box.

Step 1: Make sure you use the correct boxes for your dishes and I prefer to use the actual dish boxes with the double sided wall to give it extra stability. After you get the boxes open the box up and Tape the bottom and sides with a quality tape.

Step 2: After taping the box it’s best to get the packing paper us experts use that is inklerss and comes in 25 pound bundles. The cost is usually around $ 40.00 per bundle maybe less depending upon where you buy it from. Take the bundle of paper and lay it out on your table’s flat surface and then take a few sheets and fold a few sheets probable around 8 sheets on the bottom of the box to make sure all areas are covered at the bottom of the box.

Step 3: Get one plate at a time and take two sheets of paper laid flat out and place the dish in the paper and fold the paper around the dish like wrapping a baby’s diaper ( use this style of wrapping your dish plates). The continue this on the bottom first row of plates at the bottom of the box. Then take another 8 sheets of the packing paper and fold then over and place them on top of your first row of the dishes that are on the bottom of your box. The next step is to start another row of dishes however you need to run the second row of your dishes the other way from the way you ran the dishes at the bottom of the box. After the row is completed repeat how you packed the dishes on your first bottom row. To pack any glasses or stemware you need to pack them by again laying out 3 sheets of packing paper on the flat surface on your table and place your glass in the center and wrap the glass like a baby’s diaper concentrating on the packing paper to be placed around the bottom of the glass and inside the glass itself to give it support from crushing in.

Step 4: After you have filled the box at the very top make sure that you bundle up some packing paper to make sure that the top of the box will not sink in after you seal it with your sealing tape. Close the box and seal it with your tape. The best recommended tape is the brown box sealing tape for best results.

Preparing for an out of State Move from Pennsylvania

Resources & Tips

Preparing for an out of State Move from Pennsylvania

By ecmmovers|2023-05-16T19:11:33-04:00March 24, 2023|Resources & Tips|

Preparing for an out of state move can be very hard and hectic getting your ducks in line for the up coming big day. Here are some things to make that move much easier for you on moving day.

Before the move day:

Have all of your things that you don’t need until you are at your new home packed and ready for the movers on moving day. It’s best that after you have packed each box that you take a black felt marker and label in the upper corner of each box what room it goes in at your new home.

Place if you can all boxes that you have packed in your garage or a single room mainly on the first floor of your residence as this will make the move loading go much faster.

When packing each box make sure that before you seal the box up that when the box is closed it does not dip down at the top. You may need to add some filler like packing paper. towels or cut the side walls down on the boxes to make a bigger flap to close the box but this will when you seal the box up give the top of the box a non dipping top in which will reduce anything inside your box from getting damaged during the move.

Have all pets put in a room with the door closed so that your movers will not be falling over them or so you will not have them get loose outside the home when your movers go outside or come inside during the move.

Try to get the move started early if possible.

Starting a move first thing and early in the morning at the crack of dawn foir a large move is recommended so that the move can be loaded before dark if it’s a long distance move or if it’s a local move your move can be done in one day the load and unload at the delivery location and further your neighbors will appreciate the move being done during daylight especially if they have kids that have to get to bed early for school the next day.

Have you contacted all your utility companies?

Make sure that you have contacted all utility companies not only at your town you are movig out of but at the new town as well so that you are not being billed for a utility at your old home that you no longer live there and at the new home you have all utilities up and running so that your move and new home can be a seamless one.

Gas powered equipment.

Before moving drain all gas out of any power equipment at least 24 hours before your scheduled move as this will eliminate anything from catching fire.

More packing tips.

Don’t pack any matches, spray cans, bleaches household cleaners as these are forbidden to be taken by your mover as they are hazardous or flammable items. We recommend getting more packing tips by going here to learn more

Moving in a real estate market and during a banking collapse

Moving in a real estate market and during a banking collapse

By ecmmovers|2023-03-15T12:58:04-04:00March 15, 2023|Resources & Tips|

Moving during a real estate market low and during a recent bank collapse can be a difficult decision to make during these times. As we all know of the SVB bank collpase as of Friday March 10, 2023 and then Signature bank of New York. The banking industry is in trouble but it is not the big banks but the small regional banks that bring more concern then the big ones like Wells Fargo, J.P. Morgan and Chase etc. These banks maintain solvency in these times. Banks collapse is most likely due to bad investing as a bank really invests in risky investments in which lately a lot have lost value by over 50%. The banking industry is built on trust by its depositors and investors. A bank is nothing but a place to park your deposits in which the bank keeps only 10% of the deposits and invests into risky ventures like crypto in which some have collapsed as well like recent FTX and a few others have closed. The FDIC is not goverment owned but is a privately owned corporation. the picture doesn’t look that good but at this point it would be best for the consumer to be purchasing Gold and Silver coins and items that are more tanigble at this present time even thou you may lose a little value with tanigble items you will not lose your shirt totally.

Housing market is still low with low inventory and nothing really out there but there are some still hot spots where the market is still booming and with that said the spring flowers are starting to emerge and I wanted to share with you some things what we are seeing even thou homeowners are still holding off moving.

Already 3 months or so into the new year and we are seeing Buyers are active in buying homes and most are for investnent purposes and some second time buyers

Buyers are active. We see homes selling faster in January then in July last year.

Homes are holding their values. The average value of a home is up almost by 2% over last year.

– Mortgage rates are volatile! Rates have whipsawed from 7.3% in November to below 6% in January, to now mid-6%’s heading in to March. With such volatility, it’s best to get your mortgage application in place in advance, so that you can lock in your rate when they hit a point of interest.

These trends are all validating that the market is shifting in to a more balanced and healthy place.

Summary. Now would be the time to sell your present property or rent it out for that extra monthly income because it is something tangible and even thou the value might dip you will not lose your shirt like you will with money by having it in a bank. The property is an income property and whether you are selling or just moving your home furnishings and looking for a dependable and trustworthy mover whom knows how to give you the absolute best moving services let Eastern Connection Movers do your move.

We are not a broker nor a franchised moving company but the actual mover that has been in business over 38 years and is 5 star rated.

Long-distance moving and you are looking for affordable moving tips to make your moving budget go a lot farther. Interstate movers can be expensive however, these tips will certainly make your funds go a lot farther. Follow these tips and they will make your move a hassle-free moving experience .

Looking to rent a truck to move yourself to another state and you are ready to pull thr trigger and rent a truck.

1): Its not a great idea to rent a truck for your move in all cases it will end up costing you more monery in the end of the move from the rental cost, your time, the stress of getting everything lined up like the manpower to help lift and load the truck and then the fuel, blankets, hotel and motel bills or sleeping in an uncomfortable bench seat to get the rest you need to make it safely to your destination. Then what if the rental truck breaks down and so they bring you another truck however, you will have to unload the broke truck and load the truck that they brought you or get towed and be delayed in which will really ruin your moving plans and the time you have set aside to get the task finished.

The most Four valuable tips for your out of state move

Resources & Tips

The most Four valuable tips for your out of state move

By ecmmovers|2023-01-05T22:28:12-05:00January 5, 2023|Resources & Tips|

These are the Four most valuable tips that are suggessted during any out of state move. During many people’s lifetime an out of state move can difficult especially for the first time move. These are the Four best steps to follow to help you in your long distance move.

Tip one:

When moving out of state selerct a moving company that is not a franchise but is a small business company.

Why ?. If you select a franchise company chances are you will have to wait at least 21 days for a move to the southern states like Florida and the Carolinas. If you are moving to the west coast or southwest states figure about 30 days before you get the delivery. With a small company chances are you will get direct ” exclusive delivery” without the long wait because you have better things to do other then waiting like getting your things there so that you can start your new job on time without having to already started the new job then have your things arrive in which can complicate things. This senario also happens when you book with a large company as they will not run ” Exclusive moves” without overcharging you. The small company however has more wiggle room where they can give you that ” exclusive direct delivery in a few days and thus, meeting your moving requirements.

Tip two:

Deal with a small company as they are not looking to meet a monthly moving booked quota as what they are looking to do for you is to give you a quality move that is seamless without any glinches.

Why ?

Avoid to many ” cooks in the kitchen” as this is a process where with a franchise your belongings are loaded by the first franchised office ” First cook” then off loaded into their warehouse to wait for the second ” cook ” to load it onto their truck then it goes to another franchise unloaded then reloaded to be delivered out to your new residence and by this four franchise agents have handled your belongs. This process can cause a lot of damages to your belongings and it has been proven to be a fact.

Book your long distance move with a small moving company will assure you of no double handling of your move, direct delivery without the risks of damages from to many cooks in the kitchen.

Tip three:

Avoid dealing with a franchise moving company because most franchise offices have an age limit on movers to move your precious belongings.

Why ?.

The age limit for a franchised company to hire a mover is 33 years old for the labor end. This policy can certainly put your home furnishings at risk of severe damages because of their constant turn over and hiring of new help that chances are not experienced movers. Your best bet is to book your move with a small non franchised moving company because they will have movers that have been with them for decades and these men most likely will be older but will have the expertise that you are looking for on your move to ensure your move is a seamless one with a great moving experience.

Tip Four:

When selecting your moving company always make sure that you get all of the services for your long distance move in writing before the service will begin and remember that a company that does out of state moves can’t take any deposits for the move until after your belongshas been loaded onto the truck and the pick up end and packing end of the service has been completed.

Why ?.

Out of state moving companies are required to list all of the services that are to be provided in writing before the services begins as required by regulations.

Eastern Connection Movers a Long distance moving company will provide you will an upfront in writing estimate of the cost for your move and will provide direct delivery of your home effects to any state in a timely manner.
