Once you've found a great new condo, house or apartment on HotPads.com you'll need to think about getting all of your stuff to your next place. If you've got too much stuff, you may even need to think about getting a storage space. Check out the HotPads Moving & Storage Center for information on moving companies, boxes, packing supplies, self-storage providers and tips on moving. Good luck with your move!
(P.S. Remember to recycle all those boxes and newspapers!)
Moving & Storage Resources
Moving Companies
Like nuclear waste disposal and dental surgery, some things are best left to the experts. If you want to simplify your move with a bunch of burly men handling the whole show, learn about moving companies and get a moving quote here.
Truck and Van Rentals
Nothing beats spending an afternoon with friends eating pizza and drinking beer. Especially when those friends just helped you move and all it cost you was pizza and beer. But you will need a truck or van, and here's where you go to find out what your options are and where you can get a quote. Just remember, the beer's only for AFTER you've returned the van.
Boxes and Packing Supplies
Whatever you do, don't scrounge for used boxes behind the supermarket. You're liable to bring along some unwanted smells and small critters when you move. Get new, sturdy, boxes and packing supplies from our partner, UBOXES.com.
(And don't forget the bubble wrap. We love popping bubble wrap.)
Self Storage, Mini & Mobile Storage
If all of your stuff won't make it to your new place (and Mom & Dad want the use of their garage back) then it's time for you to look into getting a storage space. You have more options than ever before, and some companies will even pick up your stuff for you. Brilliant!
Connect Your Utilities
Nothing's worse than hopping in a shower with no water or plugging in your respirator without electricity. Remember to activate your utilities before you arrive! HotPads has partnered with WhiteFence to help you activate all of your utilities online.
