Packing Your Mirrors Packing mirrors require special attention. You can safely wrap your mirrors in tissue paper or cover the mirror face with masking tape. However, if you have more expensive mirrors to move, you should consider investing in boxes that are specifically designed for transporting mirrors.
Taking Inventory Taking inventory is a great way of organizing and managing all of the different tasks you have to keep track of, and if you format it in a checklist style, you can easily separate the things you have yet to do and what you’ve already completed. Also, make note of the conditions of your belongings so that you have something to refer to once your belongings have been transported to your new home.
Your Relocation List Once you’ve decided that you’ll be moving, it’s time to plan out your steps by making a list. In the same vein as a to-do list, you should start separating different tasks such as packing order, contacting your primary care provider, transferring records, discontinuing utilities, and everything else by a weekly breakdown. Don’t be afraid to add more things as you go along, and by the time moving day arrives, you’ll be prepared to move in without any reservations as to whether or not you’ve missed any crucial details.
Removing the Weights in a Grandfather Clock If you can’t afford to hire a clock specialist to service your grandfather clock, you can carefully remove the weights yourself. You should always don cotton gloves before you change/remove anything inside the clock. Remove the weights piece by piece and note each of their respective positions so you can reinstall them in the correct order. If the weights are suspended by cables, break off an adequately-sized piece of Styrofoam, cut a slit through the middle, and fit the Styrofoam around the pulley. This way, it'll prevent any damage your pulleys may receive during transit. Afterwards, remove the weights.

Starving Students Inc Ben 25 Aug 2011 The North Hollywood branch of Starving Students moving company... The North Hollywood branch of Starving Students moving company recently “helped” my wife and I move from our home in one side of the Valley to the other. I chose the company because I knew the brand, respected the business model (they started small and still reflect a community spirit) and, as most people agree, their prices were reasonable. Nonetheless, things took a turn for the worse when we arrived at our new home. Furniture, including lamps, a dresser and a brand new crib purchased just months ago for the arrival of our newborn son and other items were significantly damaged beyond repair in the move. We were in shock, needless to say, when we saw what had happened to our things, but nothing could have prepared us for the reaction we got from the so-called “supervisors.” “Be glad you got insurance,” he told us, smugly, without one hint of regret or apology or accountability. With my wife and two children nearby, I tried to confront him about what had happened and his next response was even more shocking: “Everyone makes mistakes, even God. Look at your wife, for example,” he said. This was by far the most sexist and irresponsible individual I’ve ever come across and he deserves to have his “moving credentials” stripped for life because he has put an otherwise fair and decent business at risk. It is true: “accidents happen,” and mistakes are made. However, this man is clearly not someone who should be leading a crew of “experts” who have been put in charge of handling someone’s personal belongings. In fact, we were told by this “supervisor’s” crewmembers that this individual has a history of abusing customers and that they would like to see him leave the company for good. I urge anyone contemplating a move to avoid Starving Students, at least the North Hollywood office, at all costs. Our insurance claim is pending and likely it will be approved. We will be able to replace our damaged items. We are fortunate in that respect. But the larger issue here is about respect: Had my wife and two children not been close by, I don’t know that I would have let this poor excuse of a human walk away without a physical reminder of the value of not only respecting the customer, but all of human kind, including women and God. Boycott this company like the plague! 1.0000

Seattle Movers was the cheapest one out of all of them. So i decided i would use them for my move from Oakland to Seattle. Their reputation really did give me a good feeling, since as soon as the movers arrived I knew i was getting a professional service. Seattle movers rocks the boat! 4.0000
