1. Peace of mind - Moving can be stressful. Experts list marriage, divorce, the arrival of a new baby and job change and moving as some of the most stressful life events. If you are moving and are coupling one of these other events with the move, you may be maxed out. Give yourself a break. Let yourself, and your friends and family, off the hook and hire movers.
2. Physical Safety - This might not be something you think of initially. If you were to accidentally hurt yourself (back, knees etc.) you could be off work, possibly without pay. You wouldn’t be able to unpack your boxes and set yourself back months. Worse yet, one of your friends or family members could get hurt. Just a quick slip, and a friend of yours is out of commission. Leave it to professionals.
3. Time and Energy Saver - You’re moving into a new place. You may have sold your old place, or are moving out of an apartment. You’ve got cleaning, organizing, packing and unpacking to do. Don’t waste that time moving boxes and furniture from a truck into the new place. Use your energy and time to unpack, clean and make your new place into a home. You’ll thank yourself later.
4. Safer for your stuff - You have money invested into your belongings. Don’t take the chance that a caring friend accidentally drops it and your belongings become damaged. Save yourself the hassle, time and money of replacing furniture by leaving it to professionals who know how to wrap furniture safely and get it to your new place all in one piece. (Make sure your movers carry insurance.)
5. Stress level/Worth the money - At the end of the day, it’s just not worth the time, energy and brain space to enlist your family and friends to move for you. You use professionals in every other area of your life, and moving should be no different. Professional movers can get you completely moved into your place, put your furniture in the correct space/areas where you want it, safely and in record time for a reasonable cost.
