The cost of using a mover versus doing a self move

In this tough economy, we know that every penny counts when it comes to your purchases whether it be groceries, new clothes, or your move in the local Chicago area. Many people are under the impression that moving themselves is more cost effective than hiring a mover. Often, this is a misconception. For example, renting a truck will cost you a base rate plus a charge per mile. You have to also fuel the truck up on your own dime. If the truck is not packed properly, like a professional mover can do, several trips will be involved, increasing the cost you pay for the truck and what you spend on fuel. If the truck is not packed properly, it can also mean boxes and goods being strewn about the truck and will cause subsequent damage. There is also the hassle of driving the truck, and when an untrained driver is driving a rented 24 foot truck, there can be some nerves and maybe even some accidents.

With All My Sons of Chicago, you have professional movers coming to your home and carefully pad wrapping your furniture at no charge. They will carefully pack the truck to prevent damages to your things. We provide free packing advice and over the phone assistance. We even provide free estimates! Most of all, we save you time and stress. When you use All My Sons, you don't have to beg your friends for a Saturday afternoon to help you move nor do you have to lug boxes down flights of stairs.
