Choosing a Moving Service: What to consider

Capsule is local and helping North Texas DFW

Choosing a moving service or moving and storage container company? If your shopping around a container company to use, you might find it a bit confusing now that you realize there is more than just one company. I’ll walk you through some pricing models and what you might want to evaluate.

Here are the quick things to Consider:

Beware of “No transport fees”
Get all your costs upfront and in writing, advertised pricing is not your pricing
Beware of high storage rent
Beware of term commitments
“Transparent Roof” means it’s plastic, not Steel

Moving & Storage Container Pricing

CAPSULE

Capsule has a low constant rent with no term commitments, with flat transport fees. We do not charge more in rent if we keep it, and we do not charge by the mile. What we quote, is what you pay. It’s all month to month so no early move out penalties. This keeps it simple for you and for us. Transport fees help keep the monthly rent low and helps customers based on need. Not everyone is needing the same type of move or storage, we typically move it 2,3, or 4 times.

Other Moving Container companies:

Beware of “no transport fees”. That’s because there usually are, read the fine print if they travel more than 20-30 miles from their shop, there is a set $ per mile you’ll get charged after the delivery. These are gimmicks that usually result in “no transport” but a high monthly rent. This is bad for 2 reasons, you’ll get an charge you didn’t know about and a high rent. This is problematic if something goes wrong and you need it longer, because you’re going to pay that very high rent again. Most people who choose this route, think they only need it one month, but get a big surprise at the final bill.

Others may charge more rent if you keep it with them. One red flag to keep in mind is that if you only need them to store it for a week, but you keep it on your property for 5 months, your paying 5 months of high rent. Just because they kept it with them for one week.

Another thing to keep in mind is term commitments. This is when you say you’ll probably need it for 6 months, and the company quotes you based on 6 months of rent. Beware if you move out early from what you originally said, you may pay a penalty. Term commitments you make at the beginning also tie into transport fees along with rent, any deviation may result in a high unexpected transport fee.

80 % of our customers that needed it one month or less had issues with a contractor, realtor, or title company that resulted in longer storage.

Moving Service Reviews:

When choosing a moving service or moving and storage container company why are reviews important? I’ve been told, there’s no difference, they all the same thig, and that couldn’t be further form the truth. The containers and service between competitors can be like day and night.

We are very proud of our customer satisfaction level and our online reviews. Like choosing a traditional mover you will want to do your research on them. They are not all just a box, they are not all the same.

Google, Facebook and twitter are good places to look for customer reactions and feedback. Yelp too, but it isn’t Used as much in our industry because their platform doesn’t conform to our niche industry.

Also, many boast about “transparent” roofs. That’s because they are plastic, we live in Texas, get a steel roof.

We hope this helps you in your search for the right company. We hope we can help you out

Packing a CAPSULE…

So, lets say you’ve made a smart decision and decided to use Capsule moving containers for your local move here in DFW. Now all you need to do it pack, but although some things might seem obvious it’s always good to go over the basics on how to pack before you start. Packing a Truck, and a moving container are fairly the same. When Packing a CAPSULE there are three basics, heavy stuff on bottom, secure it using straps or packing it in tight, and try to distribute weight evenly.

Pack up the walls and across the ceiling, like 3-d Tetris.
Start with the heavy stuff first like dressers at the bottom, then pack up with the lighter weight stuff from there.
Larger heavy furniture should be placed around the edge of the Capsule container. Try to do distribute the weight equally around the left and right side of the Capsule moving container.
Stand longer items up tall to take up less floor space and allow for more room on the floor. Packing up, is harder than using more floor space.
Stack lighter boxes on top. Boxes should be stacked by weight not size. IF using boxes accordingly, smaller boxes hold heavier stuff.
Do not underestimate using boxes. The help organize and allow things to be stackable.
Use straps to hold anything down that could fall over or slide. Do not ratchet stuff down to hard, just enough to keep stuff in place.
If you have got bolts from taking things apart, use baggies, and label them.
Label boxes.
Do not be afraid to use different size boxes, they come in handy when wedging stuff into place.
Load the things you’ll need first at the new place last, and at the doors.

All that seems like common sense, but its good to go over before you start.
