South Bay Homes and Real Estate

When you’re in college moving is easy: some boxes, your car and a few trips back and forth from one place to the other. As an adult with a family, however, moving becomes an entirely different beast. If you’ve never moved with the help of a moving company before, the Rocky Rockwood team has put together some quick hints to help you out!

1. Most moving companies who service the South Bay real estate area calculate the cost of your move based upon the weight of your things. Your moving company will come to your home and walk through it and then provide you with a weight estimate based on the contents of your home. Always make sure to ask how additional fees are calculated: last minute additions or subtractions can often mean quite the difference in price!

2. According to some of our Torrance real estate agents, most moving companies provide you with two options: full packing or no packing. Full packing is where the moving company packs all of your possessions for you. No packing is when you pack up your home yourself, though the moving company might provide you with pads and blankets to protect your furniture.

3. Many Torrance moving companies provide extra services like extra insurance, extra storage and extra labor. Ask how much these services cost-the extra labor costs of having the moving company assemble your furniture after the move might be worth the amount of time and effort it will save you!
