Clean Out the Fridge Have you taken care of your refrigerator? Remember, you need to empty, defrost, and clean it out before the movers can load it. We recommend that you unplug your refrigerator and freezer at least 24 hours in advance before loading day. Leave the doors open so that they may come up to room temperature and air dry.
Packing Your Table Lamps When packing your table lamp, make sure you have an adequately sized box to accommodate it. If you can't find a carton that fits the size of your lamp, a dishpack carton will work as a substitute. Make sure you line the bottom of the box you're using with enough cushioning. So before you start packing your table lamp, remove the bulb and the lampshade. Wrap the lamp's cord around the base. Avoid using packing tape as it may strip the paint or outer coating of your lamp. Afterwards, cover the lamp in bubble wrap and fold over the edges on the top and bottom before you tape. Put the lamp in the box and fill any spaces with extra bubble wrap to prevent shifting during transit.
Basic Furniture Moving When moving furniture, make sure to remove any glass surfaces and pack them separately. Wrap them in moving pads to prevent any possible damage during transit. Never slide or drag your furniture along hardwood floors; carpeted dollies or furniture glides are a good investment for moving heavy pieces of furniture.
Wiping Up Residue Once you move into your new home, take some time to check inside your cabinets and drawers. The management most likely had pest control take care of any extra roommates after the last tenant left, but you can never be too sure if the pesticides are harmful to people. Get a dishrag and wipe inside your drawers and cabinets.

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
