Movers near me? Good or Bad lookup?

July 17, 2019 by movingworldwide Leave a Comment

Finding a reputable, reliable mover is critical to any relocation. Just looking up “movers near me” is not the best option. Furthermore, the Internet made it easy for almost anyone to create a professional-looking website and claim to be a “mover.” In reality, some are fly-by-night operators who may not even own a truck. To provide consumers with a symbol of quality they can trust for interstate moves, AMSA established the ProMover program. The Pro Mover certifies that members have passed a background check and agree to uphold the American Moving and Storage Association Code of Ethics.

Moving During the Fourth of July Holiday?

July 1, 2019 by movingworldwide Leave a Comment

6 things you need know below!

In addition to backyard barbeques and watching fireworks, many Americans will be taking advantage of time off from work this Fourth of July holiday week to move. While relocating on or around a holiday will certainly save you a few vacation days, it can also present several unique challenges. Here are 6 things you should know before moving during the Fourth of July week and on most other holiday occasions.

Travel

First and foremost, traveling during the holidays means dealing with traffic – and plenty of it! In fact, AAA (American Automobile Association) stated this year’s Independence Day holiday would result in 1.25 million more travelers in the U.S. than last year. According to the association, a record-breaking 44.2 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more away from home, meaning that this week is the “most traveled Independence Holiday weekend ever.” AAA also reports that the vast majority of travelers – 37.5 million Americans – will be on the road this week. So what does this mean for your move? Well, for starters, get up and out as early as possible. Make sure to check travel apps, such as Waze and Google Maps, to gauge the amount of traffic you’ll be dealing with. If you can, try to also avoid peak travel times and heavy rush hour traffic when driving through metropolitan areas.

Timing

It’s no secret that summer is one of the busiest travel seasons of the year. In fact, what is considered “peak moving season” stretches from Memorial Day to Labor Day, with roughly 70 percent of all moves taking place during this time. With this in mind, make sure you book a professional moving company as early as possible. If you’re planning to move during a holiday, such as July 4th, you’ll need to start your moving company search several months in advance. Planning a DIY move instead? Don’t think this requires any less preparation. You’ll need to reserve a rental moving truck well ahead of time and double-check whether the rental company is open during the holiday week.

In addition to early planning, you’ll need to get an early start on moving day. Getting up and out as early as possible will save you time and travel headaches later on. Most professional moving companies will want to arrive during the 8 to 10 a.m. time window during the summer months, anyway. This is because movers are hoping to beat the heat by moving during the early morning hours when it’s substantially cooler outside. Keep in mind that the intensity of the sun and UV rays are strongest from the hours of 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. So moving during this time frame is not ideal.

Pets

Those moving with pets should make sure they’re furballs are safe and secure while moving during the July 4th week. This is because the loud, banging Independence Day fireworks can send pets – particularly dogs – into a panic. In fact, the day after the Fourth of July many animal shelters are inundated with pets that panicked, ran away and got lost after hearing the holiday fireworks. It’s for this reason that you keep a watchful eye on Fido during a holiday move. PetMD.com suggests keeping pets inside at all times during the fireworks. You should also have them properly identified before the move. You can do this by microchipping your dog and attaching a tag with your contact information to their collar.

Weather

There’s little you can do to control the weather on moving day, but plenty you can do to prepare for it. Here are a few tips to help you move during the sweltering July heat:

Wear lightweight, loose-fitting and breathable clothing. Fabrics like cotton and linen absorb sweat and allow faster evaporation, so that you stay dry and cool during the move. Avoid wearing anything made of rayon or polyester. Also, stick with whites and neutrals, and make sure to cover your face with a hat.
The July sun can be dangerous. If you’re spending even a small part of the day outside, make sure to apply plenty of sunscreen. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends choosing a sunscreen that is water-resistant, that offers broad-spectrum coverage, and that has an SPF of 30 or higher. Apply the sunscreen 15 minutes before heading outside and reapply every few hours.
Drink up! Avoid dehydration on moving day by keeping a full day’s supply of bottled water near you throughout the move. The stresses of lifting boxes and coordinating a move can leave you sweating buckets. So make sure you (and your movers) guzzle plenty of H2O all day long.

Cost

While moving during a holiday may save you “vacation” days, it most likely won’t save you on costs. If you’re hiring a professional moving company to do the heavy lifting, be aware that they’ll probably charge you more to work on or around a holiday. This is due to higher demand during many holiday weeks, and higher demand in the summertime in general. If you’re moving yourself, know that gas prices may rise as well. AAA reports that while the national average gas price is currently cheaper than it was last year, the prices tend to increase slightly during holiday weekends.

Packing

When packing your belongings this Fourth of July holiday be aware that not all items will fare well in the summertime heat. Anything that has the potential to melt should be kept off the truck as long as possible. Make sure to pack electronics separately and try your best to keep them in an air conditioned environment. My advice is to label any boxes containing these items, so that you can get them inside to your new place as soon as you arrive. If you’re trying to figure out how many boxes you need you can get an estimate with our packing calculator.

Moving from Maryland?

June 21, 2019 by movingworldwide Leave a Comment

Moving from Maryland 15 things you will miss.

Moving from Maryland can be a big deal for some and sad occasions for others but in both situations you will have these 15 things that Marylanders love and will miss when moving from Maryland.

1.Maryland famous Steamed Blue Crabs.

There’s something communal about spreading newspaper down and pouring out a half bushel of piping hot steamed crabs onto the table top and letting everyone go to town, with more time spent talking and enjoying company than actually eating. It is a pastime and state treasure that you cant quite get the same anywhere else. Try Capt Billys for famous Steam Crabs! One of the top places in Maryland.

2. Old Bay on everything.

You have to wonder what is it that we Marylanders don’t put Old Bay on!

Moving from Maryland you may not get your craving for old bay wings elsewhere.

3. There’s no Christmas like a quirky Maryland Christmas.

You can always find something Marylandee around Christmas. Like this Nautical Christmas tree made out of what I believe to be …Crab Cages.

4. Where are the historic battlefields in your new place?

History enthusiasts will miss our many Civil War battlefields in MD.

5. Also what about the Re-enactments!

6. Ocean City

Officially the Town of Ocean City, is an Atlantic resort town in Worcester County, Maryland. Ocean City is a major beach resort area along the East Coast of the United States. The population was 7,102 at the 2010 U.S. Census, although during summer weekends the city hosts between 320,000 and 345,000 vacationers, and up to 8 million visitors annually.^[4] During the summer, Ocean City becomes the second most populated municipality in Maryland, after Baltimore. It is part of the Salisbury, MD-DE Metropolitan Statistical Area, as defined by the United States Census Bureau.

7. And chow down on some Thrashers fries.

Oh and you have to do some Thrashers fries when you go down to Ocean City.

8. You will miss Bergers cookies.

Berger Cookies offers Baltimore’s iconic fresh baked cookies, cakes and other delicious homemade desserts! Available for ordering online or at local retailers.

10. And where else will I be close to so many types of terrain…

Maryland’s nicknames: “America In Miniature“, “Old Line State”, “Free State” Maryland has been called “America in Miniature” because so much is packed into its 10,460 square miles of land and water. You can find just about any kind of natural feature here, except a desert.

11. Like mountains…

Four seasons of outdoor pursuits — including hiking, skiing, fishing and boating — are available for anyone wishing to explore the Western Maryland countryside, from its thick forests and rambling rivers to the state’s largest freshwater lake. Pockets of history also emerge amid small towns tucked into the mountains.

12. And wetlands.

Two broad categories of wetlands are found in the Chesapeake Bay watershed:

Tidal, or estuarine, wetlands are flooded with salt or brackish water when tides rise. Tidal wetlands are found along the shores of the Bay and the tidal portions of streams, creeks and rivers. As of 2010, there were approximately 282,291 acres of tidal wetlands in the Chesapeake Bay area.
Non-tidal, or palustrine, wetlands contain fresh water and make up 86 percent of the wetlands in the watershed. Palustrine wetlands are located on floodplains bordering streams and rivers, along the shorelines of lakes and ponds or covering broad, flat areas where water may collect (such as many areas on the Delmarva peninsula).

Wetlands can be further distinguished by the varieties of plants that grow there:

Emergent wetlands, often called marshes or wet meadows, are made up of grasses, sedges and other leafy, non-woody plants.
Shrub wetlands, known as bogs or shrub swamps, are characterized by low- to medium-height woody plants.
Forested wetlands, including wooded swamps and low-lying hardwood forests near rivers, are dominated by trees. Sixty-eight percent of the wetlands in the Bay watershed are forested.

13. You will miss the small Maryland towns…

14. And the excitement of local cities.

15. Don’t miss us as your mover! Worldwide Moving Systems

Cabinet update

how to stage your house using new hardware for kitchen cabinets

Instead of jumping up and getting entirely new cabinets you should consider repainting them and or getting new knobs. If you opt to get new cabinets you be facing a steep cost. Most cabinets range from $500 to $1,500 per box, and if your home have an average-size kitchen with 30 cabinets, you’re looking at a $15,000 to $45,000 investment. Umm so nope. We recommend just sprucing it up. New knobs can give a more more modern feel and may increase functionality of using the cabinets. We implore your to make sure your cabinets are not cluttered and dishes and glasses are neat and clean. Remove all multiple different shapes and sizes plastic cups and plates.Staging with simply nice glasses and plates give an model home look. Get the look: Lowe’s for under $5

Duvet Set Master Bedroom

Duvet_Master

Please don’t have bedspeads with flowers or little figurines or something with triangles and circles from the eighties. Please purchase a pristine simple colored duvet set with accent pillows to make sure your master bedroom looks inviting. Also remove access furniture and boxes or bags of clothes and place exercise equipment or any other items in storage or storage pods. Staging expert Julea Joseph from Reinventing Space recommends purchasing a new duvet set to give it a quick renovation with the color white as it will give a peaceful ambiance and photographs will when taking pictures for online listing.

Set of drapes

how to stage your house using drapes

Please do not have cheap dusty drapes up. Please do not have those temporary paper accordion blinds up. Take those down and dress up your living space with a curtains that are hung high to give a grandiose feel to the room. However, you may want a particular tone for your room. Find what works best for you by checking out these vibes :

Casual: For high-traffic areas, like the living room or the kitchen, hovering drapes are a practical option. This style gives just a finger space between the floor and the drape, leaving the hem clean and dust-free.
Tailored: To get a stylish, classic look, opt for drapes that have a slight break or fold above the hem–a sign of a custom design. An extra half inch will do the trick.
Formal: Puddling your drapes, or letting the hem fall in excess onto the ground, reveals a very dramatic atmosphere (perfect for some dining rooms). The longer the overflow, the more dramatic the room will look. This option has to be adjusted often since the fabric may move out of place.

Pro staging tip: If your drapes (or carpets) need a quick pick me up, rent a steam cleaner for a day instead of investing in a professional service (which sets you back an average of $51 per room. A rental will still leave your home looking rejuvenated–and only cost around $35 per day.

5. Wall Art

Understanding how to stage a house starts with de-personalization. To start, take down family collections and photographs. Taking yourself out of the picture, literally, will make it easier for your buyers to imagine themselves in your space. In their place, hang some simple wall art. It will fill your empty space and also act as a focal point for your room. Some tips to keep in mind when choosing a piece:

Likeability: You wouldn’t want to offend anyone who visits your home, so choose images that appeal to a broad audience (such as landscapes or flowers) instead of more personal ones (like religion or politics).
Size: Art that is too large will make a room look crowded, and pieces that are too small will get lost. As a general rule of thumb, select a piece that is 75 percent of your furniture’s space if it’s going to be hung above furniture. If it’s going to be hung above the fireplace, it should be close to the size of your fireplace opening.
Color: The colors in your home should be cohesive, so pick a piece of art that compliments your other accent items (pillows, rugs, vases, etc.).
Arrangement: Before nailing multiple items on the wall, lay each one out on the floor to see how you want everything to be arranged. Once you have an idea, trace each piece on a brown paper bag and tape it to the wall to decipher where you need to install nails.

6. Throw Pillows

how to stage your home with throw pillows

As you choose a design, it’s smart to go for warm neutral tones that will hide your furniture’s flaws. For example, you can mix solid and patterned gray pillows to complement an older gray couch. Since throw pillows are pretty inexpensive, they can be traded out every few months to achieve the perfect in-season look.

Pro staging tip: Don’t let extra pieces of furniture clutter your area since this can make it appear smaller than it is. As event planner and interior designer Eric Sowers says, the space itself should do the talking–not the furniture. Eric recommends renting a storage unit to keep your other (or outdated) furniture safe and out of the way when you’re showing your house.

7. Fresh Mulch

When it comes to enhancing your landscape’s curb appeal, you have to go beyond the usual tree trimming and weed removal. A great way to catch a buyer’s eye? With a fresh batch of mulch. Applying a new layer in all of your garden beds will control and kill your weeds while also giving your landscaping a new pop of color and enhanced surrounding plants. Some tips to keep in mind:

Thickness: If you’re using fine mulch, a layer of 1 to 2 inches will be sufficient. If you have coarser mulch, it’s better to use 3-4 inches. It’s important not to use too much of either type since it could stifle your surrounding plants. If your mulch is too deep, it will stimulate root growth in the mulch rather than in the ground–resulting in a shallow root system that is susceptible to cold and drought damage.
Time of year: Depending on your season, you may need to add extra mulch in the summer (to retain moisture) and in the winter (to insulate from the cold). To determine the best solution for your specific landscaping situation, it’s best to speak with your local gardening expert.
Quantity: Nothing is more frustrating than buying more of a product than you need, so make sure you are careful with your measurements. Generally, a yard of mulch will cover 300 square feet when spread an inch thick.

9. Dinner Party Set

how to stage your house with new dining set

Give prospective buyers a glimpse of what their hosting experience could look like by setting up your dining room table. And it doesn’t have to be anything extravagant. When staging your table, keep these ideas in mind:

Color. Pick one color scheme and stick to it. It’s best to use a solid color for plates and neutral tones for placemats and napkins. Avoid using tablecloths, since they can cheapen the look of your room and make it look like you have something to hide.
Spacing: If you have removable table leaves and extra chairs, it’s best to store them somewhere else. This will allow you to have more space to walk around the table, making the room appear more spacious.
Design: If you choose to add decorative items, such as bowls and candles, it’s best to group them in odd numbers. If choosing one large centerpiece, make sure it is seasonal and scaled to the size of your table.

10. Wall Mirrors

how to stage your home with hall mirrors

If you have a home with a hallway or space that lacks natural light, add a few wall mirrors. Not only do mirrors help bounce light around in dark rooms, but they make areas appear larger. When searching for the perfect mirrors for your home, keep the following in mind:

Size. The size of your wall will make a big impact on selecting the right mirror. If you’re looking to spruce up a larger wall (living, dining room or master bedroom), choose an extra large mirror between 25 and 31 inches on each side. If hanging in a smaller room as an accent piece, you can go as small as 10 inches on each side. To determine the best fit, measure your walls before making any purchases.
Shape. Square or rectangular mirrors offer a traditional look while circular or oval mirrors will give a simple but striking appeal. Avoid funky shapes, like triangles and starbursts, which may not appeal to everyone.
Style. To provide a sleek, simplified look, choose a simple wooden, metal or plastic frame. For a more formal, dramatic look, opt for a mirror with an ornate, gilded frame to serve as a strong focal point. Again, it’s best to stay simple here and avoid frames that are too unique (like mosaic styles and bright tiles).

If you want to create an even bigger effect, place a mirror (or a collage of mirrors) across from a window, allowing them to pull in more light from the sun.

Moving yourself? Here are some tips for you.

A lot to do!

Safe Shipping: Quick Tips For Protecting Your Furniture For Your Next Home Move

Admit it: moving can be such a pain. And if you’re not careful enough to protect your belongings there’s the risk of them not making it to your new home in one piece. If you’re in the middle of buying new furniture for this new home, save yourself the hassle and ship them directly to your new home and not your old home. Here are a few tips for keeping your things safe on your next move:

Get Geared Up

We can guarantee that you’ll need the following items: cardboard boxes, packing tape, moving blankets, bubble wrap, plastic bags, and plastic stretch wrap. If you’re not sure how much you’ll need, consider this: it’ll be better to have a little more gear than you need than not have enough -just make sure that the store you’re buying the gear from has a good return policy for anything left unused. Give all of your furniture and fragile belongings the proper protection they’ll need to reach its destination safely.

Take It Down

Don’t be lazy! You may be tempted to move your furniture straight to the moving truck without taking them apart. That’s a bad idea. Furniture, for the most part, is designed to be stationary so not taking it apart into more mobile pieces will do some damage when they start to jingle inside the moving truck. If time is limited, do the minimum of simply taking them down to subsections as opposed to taking them down completely. If smaller pieces such as nails and knobs had to be taken out, place them all into a small plastic bag, have instructions to yourself on how to put the furniture back together, label, and attach it to the furniture.

Loading Carefully

How you load your belongings into the moving truck matters a lot! The best way to do so is by distributing weight throughout the truck -that way, the truck will have an easier time steering. To protect your more fragile items such as mirrors and picture frames, try squeezing them between mattresses, sofas, or other soft furniture. Lastly, secure them all with straps so that they don’t start moving around.

However let us move you!

1. Peace of Mind

Planning a move can be overwhelming and stressful at times. Professional movers understand the best ways to navigate the roads and how to handle your belongings to keep them safe and protected. Knowing that your possessions are in safe hands will help to ease your mind on moving day.

2. Reliability

A professional moving company will often be the most reliable option, rather than attempting to move with the help of friends and family. Professional movers undergo rigorous training to learn the best moving techniques so that they can keep your belongings safe.

3. Accountability

A moving company will be held accountable for your move and will work to ensure that all of your belongings arrive at your doorstep safely. Relocating without the help of experienced movers gives you the responsibility of seeing that all of your belongings arrive safely, which can result in added stress during your move.

Its approximately 4,000 members consist of van lines, their agents, independent movers, forwarders, industry suppliers, and certain individuals and organizations (AMSA does not represent the self-storage industry).

AMSA administers the industry’s ProMover quality certification program, aimed at consumers. It offers its members professional training and certification and provides them with federal government representation, statistical industry reporting, arbitration services for loss or damage claims, safety and compliance guidance, federal government rate filing, professional conferences, public relations, publications, and annual safety and quality awards. It publishes a bimonthly magazine, Direction, and a quarterly data summary, Industry Trends.

Based in Alexandria, Virginia, AMSA is affiliated with 27 state moving associations and several international moving associations.

What is AMSA Pro Mover Certification important?

World Moving Systems are certified PRO MOVER’s under the Authority of the American Moving and Storage Association <AMSA>.

The American Moving & Storage Association launched a consumer protection and certification program called ProMover on January 1, 2009. This initiative is designed to fight imposters, known within the industry as “rogue operators,” by giving consumers an easy way to separate reputable, professional movers from con artists out to make a quick buck at their expense.

The ProMover program takes the worry and the hassle out of moving by helping consumers identify quality professional movers who subscribe to AMSA goals and by providing them with information and assistance with everything from finding a mover, to getting an estimate and packing tips, to understanding valuation and insurance.

In short why hire a pro-mover?

Millions of Americans have a safe, successful move each year with a certified ProMover. Here’s why you should hire one:

Do-it-yourself costs add up quickly: truck and equipment rental (pads/dollies), boxes/tape/packing materials, fuel, your time and trouble, snacks for helpers
You avoid unexpected problems: damage from lack of packing skills, personal injury, truck or van accidents
Your possessions are handled with quality and care: professional packing and handling using the latest technology and advancements in packing materials

Trust your move to an expert – a ProMover. More than 2,800 movers have been certified. Worldwide Moving Systems is one of them!
