Cross Country Moving, Interstate Moving, Nationwide Moving... just what sort of moving service is it?
Moving is something that most people handle differently. Some people go through a major anxiety cycle with each move while other folks seem to take everything in stride. No matter how much of a moving natural you might be, there is a large difference betwixt moving locally in Wichita Falls and moving interstate. A local move is something you might be adept to handle on your own with several car trips and a few helpful friends. On the other hand, moving from one side of the country to the other or even just several states over will call for packing your belongings into a single trip, including all the bulky furniture, which means you will need a moving van, a bunch of packing material, and in all likelihood a team of expert movers to make sure you don't smash yourself with your own dresser or scrape up the floors as you lumber down the hallway.
But which moving service should you choose? If you are paging through a catalog of alternatives, especially for interstate moving, it could seem like there are lots different types of moving services for long distances and every one has a different names. Actually, every moving company in the business in your locale, your destination town, and any place in between has a special name for their non-local moves. You may see Nationwide Moving offered, Cross-Country Moving, or Interstate Moving indexed right beside quirky unique names like The Long Move or Anywhere-to-Anywhere. What if you are moving quite a way but not physically crossing state lines? Do you require a different service for moving coast to coast or to a remote area? Figuring out the variation between these services, or even if different names mean anything at all, can cause an anxiety attack.
But have no fear. What it boils down to is these are all unique names for the exact same service. Sure, the particulars of what every company has to offer will vary from moving company to moving company, but what they are offering is not a huge variety of location-specific services. A long-distance move by any other name is still a long-distance move. The imperative part is the contrast between this and 'local' moves which follow a separate set of pricing and planning standards.
Knowing that you're comparing the same kinds of service every time is a relief for anxiety-filled professionals and families about to embark on a big move, but all these unique names do make it difficult to look for and compare the services. To lend a hand, here is a quick list of all the distinct ways that we have seen long-distance moves referred to. There are probably several we've missed because some moving companies get creative, but this will give you a starting point.
Don't allow all these unique names befuddle you. While the search engine results may fluctuate, these are all the same services provided by different moving companies using slightly different wording. Each one of these services simply means that you will be moving more than a few blocks or towns from your current location in Wichita Falls.
