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.
Registering In a New State When you’re moving long distance, you should prioritize what items should be packed first amongst other considerations. Registering your car is also something to be aware of since you’ll assumedly be crossing into another state. Remember that each state has its own set of rules in terms of vehicle registration and tags, so be sure to research it prior to your move. That way, you can take the necessary steps once you’re there.
Heavy Duty Moving If you’re looking for a full service mover that transports heavy cargo like boats and RVs, keep in mind that there are certain regulations placed by the Department of Transportation that movers have to abide by. For heavy equipment such as tractors, moving companies should offer specific accommodations for safe transportation such as registered blade guards, an adequately sized pintle hook, and wide selection of trailers. Some moving companies don’t even require you to disassemble your equipment. Take steps in figuring out which available service works for you and go from there when you’re looking for a company to move your heavy equipment.
Taking Out Shelves Anything with shelves should be removed from their respective pieces of furniture before you move. This includes bookcases, television stands, curio and china cabinets, and hutches. Be sure to keep your shelf pins together in the same plastic bag once you're done.

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
