How to save on moving your home? Many are wondering, indeed, this is perhaps the first question that comes to mind for those who decide to face a move. Yes, because there can be enormous differences between one estimate and another, and it takes very little to raise or lower the cost by a few hundred dollars (if not more!). We know it well, that’s why we decided to draw up a list with some valuable suggestions for those who would like to reduce the costs of a move but don’t know where to start. Thanks to these five tips, you won’t spend a penny more than necessary, without sacrificing the quality of a move that lives up to your expectations.
It has also been shown that moving is one of the most stressful events in life, for this reason it is useful to rely on a specialized moving company, while you can take care of the various bureaucratic procedures:
It will be necessary to think about the contracts in the new house and the cancellation of the utilities. Understand whether it is necessary to request a transfer, a connection or a takeover.
To save money, you can consider changing suppliers and choose the best offers on the free market.
Check the internet coverage in the new home and evaluate the best internet offers.
Make a change of residence and request the assignment of a general practitioner to the ASL.
Remember to cancel the waste and register with the new Municipality (if it is different).
1) WITH GROUPAGE REMOVALS YOU SAVE UP TO 50%
Ever heard of combined removals ? If the answer is no, you must at least consider the hypothesis and the benefits of a groupage move. It is a valid alternative to the traditional move, with the difference that compared to the latter you will have to share transport with other people. There are no particular risks, but there is the great convenience of optimizing costs by virtue of the subdivision of spaces within the same van. All you need is a little more patience: when there is the minimum number of people needed to justify the transport, you will be contacted to schedule the appointment and make the necessary arrangements.
