June 6, 2013U-Pack is a great moving method to use when relocating. The idea that you pack your belongings and a moving company transports them saves you a lot of time and energy. However, you still have to pack and load, not necessarily the easiest chore to take on.
When it comes time to loading the U-Pack and you need manpower to make it happen, you have two options. You can either ask your friends for help or you can hire moving labor to do the job for you. Unlike a Full Service Moving, the labor hired will take your direction, only loading the U-Pack for you if that is all you need done.
When you hire moving labor to help you with only one aspect of the move like loading, you are not only saving money, but you remain in more control of your move. When hired, laborers will bring dollies and tools to take apart and reassemble any furniture that you need loaded, making the task a little less stressful for you.
To hire moving labor, simply call U-Pack to see if they have any staff members who can assist you for a fair price, or search the Internet to hire temporary helpers. College students often procure part-time employment by acting as moving laborers, so if you can, post a message on the billboard at a local college near you.
There is help out there, it is just a matter of making a couple of calls or searching the Internet. And remember, help is on the way, so be patient and do not attempt to load the U-Pack on your own since you can sustain injury that will keep you from moving anywhere!
After you have hired help and are settled in your new space, please take a moment and fill out a moving review to share your experience with others who may need help loading their U-Pack.
