Since any distance more than 100 miles is categorized as long distance, most of the relocation in which people seek the help of movers falls in the long distance category. Further, interstate moves are also longer distance moves even if they may not be long considering the actual distance. Long distance movers generally provide both long and short distance services. The charges will obviously vary based on the distance and the weight of the goods to be transported. Besides that, some movers charge differently, based upon whether the movement is within the state or interstate. In such cases, even with the same distance, and same amount of goods, charges may be different. Different states have different laws and levies for movement of trucks, so that, even when they are neighboring states, the operating movers may charge more when they have to cross borders. Another thing to consider when selecting movers is their packing charges, which will also vary from company to company. Some long distance movers do the packing cheaply so far as they are given the job of moving as well, but may charge more if they are requested to do only the packing. Other movers may charge less for packing so far as the distance to be transported is long so that the overall bill will not be small, but will charge more if the distance is not much. And there are others whose packing charges are always the same and are not tied up with other issues. Yet another factor that affects the charges of long distance movers is the location and the type of residences at the starting point and destination point. Sometimes the entry to the house or apartment may not be big enough for the truck to be unloaded bang in front of the home. This would obviously raise the charges since the movers might have to manually shift the luggage for a certain distance. Within the apartment complex also the presence or absence of elevators will affect the charges of the long distance movers. It would obviously be cheaper if goods can be hauled up through elevators instead of half a dozen staircases. Even where there is an elevator, all packages may not fit into it, necessitating another change in the charges. Another thing that will affect the charges of movers is the customers need for a temporary warehouse facility. Comparison-shopping on the Internet is the best way to select the right long distance movers for you. But before comparing, note down all the above points, and consider to what extent they will affect your specific case. Then compare how different movers charge for each of these categories, add it all up, and you will easily be able to select the right one for you.
