There are many moving companies out there, and it doesn’t come as a surprise that more than a few are scammers. Montreal in-particular is experiencing a growing number of these scammers and articles are flooding the web about this pandemic (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/rogue-movers-scam-montrealers-for-hundreds-of-dollars-1.2685835). Essentially you’ll be trusting inexperienced one-man-shows with flimsy tools, baseless rates and contracts and unreliable trucks. Here are a few things to look out for.
Ever bought a piece of furniture that didn't fit in your home or even up your stairs? A mere inch can make that difference so precise planning is important. It is always important you've got a floor plan before you move. It makes the move more efficient, less stressful and less spontaneous. It also avoids any future back-aches on larger furniture. Measuring your home dimensions isn't the sole factor, many forget to consider their stairways, elevators, door entries (whether it's a bedroom or the main entrance, the two can sometimes differ), windows and even the height to your ceiling for chandeliers and ceiling lights.
Moving large furniture is never a pleasant task, it's a constant headache trying to tackle how to approach the issue at hand. Some furniture can stand the test of time, but sometimes a move is all it takes to damage our beloved (and expensive) furniture. There is a right way to prepare your furniture for the move and as professional Montreal movers, here are a few tips we'd like to share with you.
