Cross Country Moving, Interstate Moving, Nationwide Moving... just what sort of moving service is it?
Moving is one thing that folks handle differently. Some people find themselves in a major worry cycle with each and every move while others seem to take everything in stride. No matter how much of a moving pro you might be, there is a large difference betwixt moving locally in Killeen and moving across the country. Across town is something you might be capable of handling by yourself with numerous car trips and a few friends to assist. However, moving across the country or even just a few states over will mean packing everything into a single trip, including all the heavy furniture, which means you will need a moving van, a lot of packing material, and probably a team of expert movers to make sure you don't smash yourself with your own dresser or ding up the floors as you are moving things through.
But what moving service should you choose? If you are paging through a catalog of options, especially for long-distance moving, it may appear like there are a lot of different types of moving services for long distances and every one has a different names. Literally, every moving company in the business in your current town, your destination locale, and all the places in between has a unique name for their out-of town moves. You may see Nationwide Moving offered, Cross-Country Moving, or Interstate Moving listed right beside quirky uncommon names like The Long Move or Anywhere-to-Anywhere. What if you are moving quite a way but not actually crossing state lines? Do you need a special service for relocating coast to coast or to a remote area? Finding out the dissimilarities between these services, or even if different names mean anything at all, can cause a major headache.
But have no fear. In actuality, these are all unique terms for the exact same service. Of course, the details of what each company has to offer will fluctuate from moving company to moving company, but what they are providing is not a big variety of location-specific services. A long-distance move by any other name is still a long-distance move. The imperative thing is the distinction between this and 'local' moves which have a distinct type of pricing and planning policies.
Understanding that you are evaluating the same types of service every time is a welcome breather for stressed out professionals and families about to embark on a life-changing move, but all these different names do make it challenging to look for and compare the services. To help, here's a little list of all the distinct ways that we have seen long-distance moves called. There are probably several we've missed because some moving companies get creative, but this will give you a baseline.
Don't let all these unique names bewilder you. While the search engine results may fluctuate, these are all similar services offered by different moving companies using slightly different wording. Each one of these services simply means that you will be moving more than a few blocks or towns from your current location in Killeen.
