How to Safely Move in the Days of COVID-19

If you don't have to move during the Covid-19 pandemic, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend that you wait it out. However, if you really have to start packing your bags, there are several tips you should put into consideration to guarantee your safety. Read on as we have prepared a detailed insight into some of the critical things you should know that will significantly help you make your move in the safest way possible.

Ask Yourself- Is Moving Essential?

The answer to this question will depend on a few factors. If you have a lease ending or you feel the need to relocate to a safer state based on your current situation, you should ensure you have access to the critical services that can allow you to relocate. Fortunately, while the majority of countries have ordered the immediate but temporary closure of "non-essential" businesses, moving service providers are still operational in almost all states.

All you need to do is make a decision to make and contact your desired moving company. However, it is also imperative to note that the closure of non-essential businesses varies from one country to the other and, therefore, you ensure you conduct your research before making your decision. Notably, in states where lockdown orders have been instilled, moving companies are considered to be essential.

Do You Need Moving Service Providers?

Typically, it is possible to move all by yourself. However, what are moving companies doing differently? Will you benefit more from contacting them? Well, the majority of companies are taking the Covid-19 crisis very seriously and have installed security protocols specially designed to guarantee the safety of their customers and employees. Coast Movers is one of the best companies that offer exceptional moving services. Besides a virtual move estimate, there are several practices that the ideal companies should incorporate. These include:

Ensuring the follow local and federal guidelines in social distancing and sanitizing
Wearing gloves and face masks
Stocking their trucks with hand sanitizers
Frequent sanitization of their trucks and equipment
Practicing social distancing at all times

Notably, all the above services are specially designed to ensure that moving or relocating is conducted in the safest way possible.

What Next?

Apart from contacting your service provider to help you move, you should ensure you know what to do in case you want to cancel your contract or check their policy. If you want to check your moving company's Covid-19 policy, you are required to visit their website or contact them directly. Like many operational essential companies, they have likely set their own rules of operation under the pandemic. What's more, the best way to cancel your move is to contact them directly. The best thing about contacting Coast Movers is that you don't need to be in the truck during your relocation. You can stay at home or in another safe location. They contact you when everything is done or when they need your clarification. Contact them today and there is no doubt you will enjoy working with them

 Verified Great Experience.  Needed a couple of movers to help move in my Daughter for a job relocation.  On short notice Coast Movers came through.   Jonathan, the owner, was super helpful.  Along with a good price they helped out when we had a vehicle breakdown and had to change the move date/time on less than 24 hours notice.   The two movers that came out were polite and worked very fast.   Great experience and I highly recommend Coast Movers.

 Verified I only needed a baby grand piano to be moved from a friends house in GH to ours in GH, so I contacted Coast Movers. The owner, Jonathan, was great in helping me understand what was involved, and later got me in touch with Jason, who took care of the scheduling. They did a great job in getting the job done around their other bigger jobs, and went out of their way to make it happen seamlessly. The three man crew knew how to handle the instrument, including disassembly, protecting, and re-assembly. All done in a little less than three hours from start to finish. The pricing was fair and honest, and I was more than happy to tip the crew for a job well-done. Oftentimes, some movers will trap customers once they have your items on the truck, only to tell you then that the price is going to be more than quoted. I've had that happen to me in the past, but in this case, the price was exactly what I was told it would be! Now I understand why Coast Movers has been in business for 15-years. It was a bonus to find a local company to support, too. Thank you, Coast Movers and the excellent crew who helped us with this project yesterday!

 Verified The 3 man team that moved my son was amazing. For 7 hours they did not stop moving except for a short lunch break. Coast Movers moved from a 3 story place with lots of tight corners to a 2 story with more tight corners and didn't damage a single wall or piece of furniture. They brought supplies to protect our walls and doorways and furniture and treated every box/piece of furniture like it was their own.

 Verified I've used Coast Movers more than once in the past. I've also referred friends and family.
I've experienced and heard nothing but great things!
I'd definitely recommend them if you're in search of moving service in or near the Gig Harbor, Seattle, or Kitsap area! Good communication and easy to deal with! The price quotes
And expected move times were right on the money. And prices were lower than expected. Always Less than competitor's prices.
