Greensboro Moving Company Ready to Work for You

The winter months are a great time to turn inward and organize; thoughts, ideas, rooms, spaces etc.  Our lives change and evolve and sometimes the right moment comes up urging us to make changes in our homes as well to reflect a new chapter. Perhaps your kids have gone off to college.  Perhaps you are taking on a home business and want to set up an office space. Another possibility is to prepare space for a new hobby. There are many reasons that we would want to rearrange the interior space of our homes. What have you been dreaming about? Are there areas of your home ready for a change?

Sometimes these changes require muscles, equipment and hours you just don’t have. Steele & Vaughn would like you to know that we are a Greensboro Moving Company ready to assist you with your home rearranging projects. We can ensure your safety by handling your heavy objects for you, including safely and carefully moving your furniture to a new location.  Let us do all the work.

Sometimes people choose to store furniture and boxed up items they are not using in the garage, basement, attic etc.  We not only can move it for you, but we can offer specialized wrapping of your pieces to protect your upholstery and wood from the harsher environments and possible pests often found in the storage areas of a home.

Winter Movers

/in /by

It is still officially autumn, but tell that to Mother Nature. She seems to have a different schedule for us this year. With over 63% of the country currently covered by snow, it seems that winter has indeed arrived despite the calendar.

Traveling has been treacherous across much of the nation with yet another large storm predicted for this weekend to affect a huge area.  How does this affect the moving industry? Well luckily it is not our busiest time of year, however, we still have Greensboro movers on the go who need to get their household contents to their new destination.

Steele & Vaughn is a long distance moving company serving Greensboro movers and the greater North Carolina area. Steele & Vaughn is prepared and experienced when it comes to harsh weather and long distance moves, and has the nationwide resources to move you in any weather conditions. No matter what the weather, and how many states we need to cross, we will bring your goods home.

Just a reminder to our Greensboro movers- please be safe along your own move journey. Whether you are flying to your new destination or driving, be prepared if you are moving to or from a winter weather affected area. Be sure to pack the essentials in case of a weather emergency. Keep an eye on the weather reports and airport closings/cancellations etc. You could be stuck at an airport or on an interstate.  Airports aren’t the best place to be stuck but they are warm and have pretty much what you would need for a longer than planned stay. Stuck in a storm on the road is another story.

We highly recommend that our Greensboro movers planning a winter move, read the Winterize Your Vehicle Checklist on FEMA’s ready.gov website for preparing your vehicle for long distance winter travel and what to have on hand in your vehicle in case of a winter emergency. Also check out the Winter Driving segment at disastercenter.com. You will want to know these life saving tips in an emergency.

Steele & Vaughn wish our Greensboro movers a safe journey home this winter. Always check ahead and plan to avoid weather affected areas along your travel route. Stop ahead of a storm and wait it out in a hotel. Arrive safe and sound at your new destination.

Moving Fraud-It is real. Protect yourself

/in /by

You have heard the stories about rogue movers – and well, it has happened again. The Department of Transportation has shut down 5 more moving companies for fraud. Three of the companies are in Southern Florida, one in South Carolina and one in Maryland. Read more about this story here in the Miami Herald.

Steele & Vaughn would like to remind Greensboro movers to protect yourselves when choosing a Greensboro moving company.  A great place to start is this Moving Fraud Protection Checklist put out by the US Department of Transportation Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration. Their website Protectyourmove.gov has a wealth of information on how to ensure that you are choosing a reputable and honest Greensboro moving company.  On their site you can also run a search on a Greensboro moving company and see if they have a complaint history.  In addition, you can visit the American Moving and Storage Association and look for an AMSA certified Promover.  These movers meet AMSA quality and service standards.

Moving can be stressful enough. Do not be taken advantage of by a rogue mover. Protect yourself and your belongings and do your research. Steele & Vaughn is proud of our reputation and history. We have the credentials to prove it with customer testimonials right on our site, a Better Business Bureau Accreditation, plus an AMSA ProMover certification. We are the trusted Greensboro moving company who will see your belongings safely home.

Don’t be a Greensboro mover victim of fraud. Do your homework and let us know if we can assist you in any way. Your research will go a long way in ensuring your belongings go all the way home. Happy and Safe Moving!

Donate Food Before You Move

/in /by

Steele & Vaughn would like to remind our Greensboro Movers that as they are preparing for their upcoming move, food storage items can weigh a lot and increase the cost of your move. Why not lighten your move load and donate your excess food items to your local food bank?

This time of year it is easy for Greensboro movers to find places to donate food. There are donation drop-offs in many area stores, churches, school etc. Also you can check out Feeding America to find a local food bank that may accept your food donation or direct you on where you can drop it off.

So why not pack up your food and drop it where it is most needed instead of loading it onto the move truck? Lighten your move load to save moving costs and help feed those in need. It’s a perfect match. We here at Steele & Vaughn wish all of our Greensboro movers a warm and bountiful Thanksgiving.

 

The Benefits of Temporary Storage

/in /by

How are you doing with your fall sorting and purging? Autumn is flying by. The busy holiday season will be upon us in a flash. This is the best time of year to take stock of what you have and what you will keep before a move. Your move costs will be based partly on the weight of your move load. You will surely save money on your move by purging unwanted items now. Throughout this fall season we have been sharing ideas and resources for sorting through the contents of the home with our future Greensboro movers.  There are still a couple of weeks left before the bustle of the holidays takes front stage. Time to move more stuff!

As you looked through closets, attic, basement, garage, shed, you got a true sense of what you need and want and what you will be leaving behind.  Steele & Vaughn shared resources and ideas for recycling, donations, on-line selling, etc.  And do not forget the possibility of holding a yard sale.
So now you are left with everything you will definitely be taking with you on your move. Some Greensboro movers may have used the sorting exercise as a time to start packing up items they will not be needing before moving day. Do you have furniture and boxes that are in the way of home showings? It is always best to show a home on the market that is free of clutter, personal items and abundant storage items. This helps the buyers “see” themselves living in your home. A great way to clear the way is to use temporary storage space.  As your trusted Greensboro mover, Steele & Vaughn offers temporary storage space. Our facilities are clean, climate controlled, and secure.  Come moving day, we can load your storage items along with the rest of your household contents and move everything to your new residence.

Also, keep our storage space in mind if you will be moving to temporary housing before you can move into your permanent home. We offer many solutions for short and long term storage. Steele & Vaughn can provide for all your moving and storage needs.  Good luck to Greensboro movers with all pre-move preparations!
