Man With A Van At The Risk Of Sounding Rabid I Think The Best Moving Option for The Young Urban Dweller

Versatility is really the biggest advantage to hiring a man with a van.

Hiring a man with a van when you are moving products and goods is an excellent idea. Here are several benefits and advantages:

Vans are versatile in that both items ranging in size from furniture to the smallest pieces of tableware, can be handled. Experienced van crews know how to pack everything expertly so nothing ever gets broken or ruined and damaged. And, no move is short or long for them. Unlike most major moving companies, they will even move you around the corner if that is what you need, as basically as they will carryover your products all the way across town. They also have different cost points so their rates are very versatile as well. There is no fixed, set amount to pay because they primarily use the exact same size vans for all of their moves sizable and tiny. This is unlike the major moving companies who charge different rates.

Convenience
Because man with van guys are a microbusinesses operation, they must offer affordable fees to keep building up their customer base. And they do exactly that. Since all the vans they use are on the smaller side compared to the largest of major company moving trucks, they get much better gas mileage and they can then pass these cost savings onto their customers. Some of them even work on a sliding scale fee for individuals who cannot afford the original estimate if it is a small move. This makes moving even more affordable and personable for the customer. Overall, there is nothing negative to say about these men and their vans for hire. They do a very professional job at areasonable and fair cost.

Unlike the largest of moving companies, hiring a man and van is very simple and effortless. There is no long waiting time involved between setting up the move to and from your locations and arranging the move. The man runs his operation as a tiny, locally owned business and that makes the service much more personal and convenient. You contact him and report the move to him and he'll offer you fast, written estimate of the cost. People in the cities use man with a their van services on a regular basis because the service is fast and you are treated like an important individual in lieu of like some anonymous number in the event you hired from a sizable moving company with sizable trucks.

Two van services that I have used and like:
Van Stand they are the best man with a van wranglers in New York. What I like about them is that they work on standardized rates and they are friendly. Two Ivy League Chumps with a Van
are affordable and are nice guy artists. The rotating cast of characters have worked well for us.

My First Moving Blog Post Here in Brooklyn

Did you hurt yourself after your last move? I did that is why I hate moving. As a result, I decided that it was time to think about hiring movers. I started to fantasize about about all the money I would save on pain relievers. Movers have all the right equipment, such as blankets, and dollies, to make moves go safely and efficiently. More importantly I would not have to do any lifting or receive any crappy moving tip emails from friends and family. New York City is not a fun place to drive, especially if you are driving a moving truck in the Brooklyn, Manhattan or Queens. I did not want to hire any flat rate movers. What I decided to do was hire a Man with a Van from Brooklyn NY NYC that would work for a fair price. I and (I am sure you share my sentiments) want to make sure that my stuff arrives at my new home safely. As such I decided it was important to hire someone who knows what they are doing. As you can well imagine, hiring a professional man with a van will save you time and make your move a less-stressful experience. There are many Vans in New York. That is not the problem. What is the problem is finding a reliable van. Craigslist and Backpage do not cut it. That is why I ended up using this new service VanStand. VanStand works with prescreened van movers. I found their website to be nice and simple, totally void of the usual marketing nonsense. To make things even better the two guys who helped were handy, helpful, personable and efficient. Take it from a guy in Brooklyn who hates to move.
