Tips for rescheduling moving services

August 9, 2012 - While planning ahead and setting a moving date is important in a smooth relocating process, there are many things that can come in the way of moving on time. Severe weather and family emergencies can force people to reschedule. These tips can help those moving when having to change the date for their big move.

Using a moving company will make relocating less stressful, but it's important to know their policy for scheduling. Depending on the situation and reason for changing the date, some companies may be able to be flexible. This can often come as a fee, as they will have to store your items if they've already been picked up. However, the fee for rescheduling will likely still be lower than the cost of switching companies at the last minute.

In some cases, moving services may be able to alter the initial contract if notified of the need to change the date in enough time. Those relocating should remain as flexible as possible and understand that movers may not be available on the exact date needed, as many other consumers schedule their services in advance too.
