Allowing a moving company to pack your belongings isn't without risk, so before you hire professional household movers be sure to check their credentials and references thoroughly. You are likely to have items you don't want them to pack - make sure you pack them yourself, or tell them, clearly what you expect them to pack and not pack. Its always good to take an inventory before allowing anyone to come in and pack your belongings - and if you can, take photos.
Most household moving companies provide insurance and are consummate professionals, but some can cause more damage than the cost of hiring them, and its important to have redress when moving belongings. Their insurance should be carefully examined to make sure it covers everything - this will also give you an idea of what they will and won't pack - and what extras (such as mattress covering) they'll provide. Companies can come in and pack your house in as little as one or two days - so its important to know what to expect and when to expect them. It is prudent to stay and watch them packing (and possibly pack some of your own things) so make sure to allow for that when planning your move.
Professional household movers are experts at what they do, and they usually have a good understanding of what is a valuable piece of furniture or belonging as opposed to one that is not......but these expert household movers have no idea of what has sentimental value to you or your family members. Careful planning and clear instructions can prevent any misunderstandings and possible damage to personal property. Plan ahead and explore every detail with your household movers.
