Moving Can Bring Your Family Together

Everyone knows that moving can be hectic. The transition can be hard on the parents, on the kids, even on the pets… especially if moving wasn’t a decision you were happy to make. Maybe the family had to relocate because of dad’s recent job offer in another city. Maybe moving was due to a foreclosure. And so on. In any case, All My Sons Moving and Storage of Austin recommends getting everyone involved. This will create a bond between all the family members, making the transition easier for everyone. Get the kids involved in packing, let them gather their books, toys, shoes and place them in boxes. At the dinner table in the weeks prior to the move, discuss your new area. Bring up the positive things about your new neighborhood. You could even discuss what type of moving company you’d like to hire. Express to your kids how important it is to you that the movers transfer your belongings with care to reassure them about the safety of their own belongings. Your kids are probably attached to certain items around the house and you want to make sure they know they will get them back once they move. If you’re looking to move in and around the Austin area, let the All My Sons Austin movers take care of all your moving needs. With four generations of moving experience, they’ll do a great job and help you move stress-free.

Save on Your Utility Bill

When you move into a new place, it’s a chance for a fresh start. You get to rearrange your new house or apartment, maybe buy new furniture, everything is clean and feels like new. All My Sons Moving and Storage of Austin suggests rethinking some of your old ways and establishing new ones. For example, little improvements here and there can save you money when it comes to your utility bill. All My Sons of Austin movers suggest unplugging appliances like large screen televisions or big stereo systems, as much as 75% of electricity is used while they’re off. That’s money down the drain. Change your light bulbs, compact fluorescent bulbs use about 25% of the electricity of standard bulbs. All My Sons of Austin movers also recommend checking your insulation because that has a significant impact of your heating and cooling bills. You can try using fans instead of air conditioner during certain times, it’s much cheaper than running the AC. Another quick tip is to turn off the computer when you’re not using it. These are all little changes you can do to save money in your new home.

My Experience With All My Sons of Austin

My name is Charice and I was moving from Austin to Salado and hired a moving crew from Austin called All My Sons Moving and Storage of Austin. I found them online, after a while of researching. They’re website seemed to be very informative, so I called them up. Everything went well, from beginning to end. The customer rep on the phone was great and helpful, she even had a few tips about packing which came in handy. The All My Sons of Austin movers were very efficient. They worked fast and can take direction really well. The even protected my mirrors with some extra padding that they had. It worked out great. I really thought moving would be very hard and make me anxious, but I guess hiring a reputable moving company helps. I mean besides the actual packing, I really didn’t do too much. All My Sons of Austin did it all. Even when we got to my new 2-bedroom condo apartment in Salado, they placed all my belongings in the correct rooms, so I didn’t have to transfer things and items around once they were gone. I really recommend these guys, these Austin movers know what they doing.
