How Move Management works.
First, a Movenet Move Counselor will conduct an initial consultation to understand your specific needs and requirements. Your Move Counselor will then create a detailed plan and timeline for the move, considering factors such as the size of your household, the distance of the move, and any special considerations. They can also advise on how to make your move more sustainable, for example by leveraging choice of transportation versus time and cost, or when to rent furniture at the destination rather than take everything with you. In some markets, we also offer a “discard and donate” service to take care of items when moving out.
Your Move Counselor will then coordinate with various service providers, such as movers, packers, and transportation companies, to ensure that everything is scheduled and organized. They will request multiple quotes for your choosing to ensure you are receiving the best market price possible. Our vetted suppliers will handle all the logistics, including packing, labelling, and inventory management. During the actual move, the Move Management team will oversee the process to ensure that everything goes according to plan. With them handling any unexpected issues or challenges that may arise, you can focus on settling into your new home. Movenet will also coordinate post-move support, including unpacking and setting up your new space. We can also offer competitive insurance rates for your move through our own transportation insurance policy.
