Most Common Moving Myths According to Movers in Denver CO

You may be a bit intimidated to move after hearing about some of the difficulties that you may encounter on your way to your new home. But luckily, most of what you have heard is probably untrue. Here are some of the most common moving myths according to movers in Denver, CO:

It would help if you always moved on a Friday.

You may have heard that it’s best to move on a Friday so you can spend the entire weekend settling into your new home and unpacking. But you’re not the only one who has thought of this plan. Many people plan on moving on Fridays, which means moving rates may be more expensive because of the increased demand. If you are on a tight budget, talk to your moving company about which days (if any) are cheaper.

You don’t need to buy boxes.

Some people try to get by packing their belongings in any box they can find. This is certainly less expensive than buying new boxes, but is it wise? No! Moving boxes are built to be sturdy enough to hold your belongings and protect them from damage. If you rely on boxes that are not designed for moving, they may not be strong enough to hold the weight of your belongings. If you want to play it safe, it’s smarter to buy moving boxes than it is to use any old box you have lying around. Or, if you don’t have this expense factored into your budget, check one of these 8 places to get moving boxes free of charge.

You have to pack everything on your own.

Packing up all of your belongings can be a time-consuming task, which is why so many people dread doing it when they have to move. Luckily, you don’t have to pack if you don’t want to. Look for a moving company—such as Eden’s Moving Company—that offers packing services. These professional packers will take good care of your belongings and make sure everything arrives safely at your new home.

You’ll remember where you put everything.

Some people try to cut corners by throwing random items in boxes and sealing them up without properly labeling what’s inside. This is a recipe for disaster. No matter how good your memory is, you will not remember what you put inside each box unless properly labeled. Take the time to pack similar items together, and then write a clear label on the outside of the box that will help you quickly identify what is inside. This will save you a huge amount of time once you arrive at your new house and start to unpack all of your belongings.

Now that you know the truth behind these common moving myths, you know there’s nothing to fear when it comes to moving. So, there’s no better time to get in touch with the packing professionals to start planning your move! Contact Eden’s Moving Company to discuss local and long-distance moving services.

These guys were great. Very careful with my furniture and they were quick. Not one ding on the walls either. I highly recommend them. I will be using them again in the future.

I don't know what to say other than thanks Eden's! They helped me move twice now and both were smooth as you can expect a move to be. A broken cup or two but what do you expect, they moved my stuff across state lines and I have broken more moving myself, that is just part of the process. They were great about going over the coverage options too to ensure I was covered for any damages. Always get insurance for a move! Thanks again Eden's, I will recommend you to anyone!

The movers showed up on time, and did an amazing job dealing with some very difficult pieces of furniture. They moved things that I thought would be impossible to move. They worked hard and fast and were very careful with my walls nothing was scratched. Good work! Thanks!!

Highly recommended movers! We hired Edens movers for a local move in Lakewood CO and they did an outstanding job. The movers were professional and friendly and the entire move went smoothly without any trouble. From the start they were organized and clear and the price was more than fair. Thank you for your great job!

Best prices and great to work with. You have to wait a little bit longer for your stuff but they were very upfront about the time frame, gave us a range, and called a few days ahead of time. Our move was difficult because our stuff was in storage (we had already moved and due to another moving company dropping the ball we could not get back to finalize boxing everything up). They did a great job once they arrived organizing our stuff in storage carefully. I would highly recommend.

Save yourself the time and trouble of trying to do it yourself or hiring questionable movers - I fully recommend Eden's Moving Services to anyone who needs professional moving services! I used their long distance moving service, their storage service and their packing services and they did a great job. The teams where very professional and the entire move process was perfect.

My household has used Edens four times now with perfect results. The moved a massive Piano off the second floor – safe and quick. I hired them again with my recent long-distance move. The crew showed up on time, they were quick and careful with my stuff, and they made sure everything got placed where I'd need it.. Great experience once again. Will definitely use them again. extremely recommended.
