If you move often, you might be looking for ways to expedite the process. When working alone, packing and loading tasks can take days to weeks to finish up. After all that, you must turn around and unload, then unpack to complete the move. Luckily, you can choose to perform bulk packing procedures found at Augliera Moving And Storage to complete this process much faster. Here are the pros and cons to consider.
Pros
Bulk packing involves setting all of the boxes on a pallet or in a pod to load and unload them as a single unit. Since you won’t be lifting the boxes manually, this means you can use larger boxes than you would normally.
To avoid lifting injuries, you likely didn’t load the boxes with more than twenty to thirty pounds of belongings. Now you can easily place more than one hundred pounds in a single box without worrying about your back. Furthermore, you save on tape since the boxes stay contained on the pallet or in the pod.
Cons
The biggest con is the inability to complete the move on your own. Unless you own a forklift, you must hire a Mover in Connecticut to maneuver them in and out of the truck. Movers can utilize their pallet jacks and forklifts to quickly load up the materials into the truck. Once you’re finished loading up, simply step away and let your Mover in Connecticut finish the job.
You’ll also need to direct the movers to the right areas when placing the pallets or pod into your new home. You can have them unloaded in the driveway or the garage. By placing them in the garage, you can remove and unpack the boxes at your leisure. Belongings placed in the driveway need to be brought inside, one by one, to protect them from theft and bad weather.
Make sure to communicate with your movers throughout the moving process to keep your belongings in good shape. Let your movers know when they are working with delicate, valuable or antique belongings, so they can put a bit extra care into the process. Good communication ensures your bulk packing and moving process works as intended.
