<h1>Apartment Community Managers - Tips on Using San Diego Movers and San Diego Moving Companies</h1>

Moving is a traumatic experience - no one likes to move.
In most situations residents contract directly with movers and
may even ask the community staff for a San Diego Mover referral.
However, there are many situations where apartment communities
contract directly with San Diego moving companies to move their
residents. The situations for needing to contract a moving company
typically involve water or other damage to a unit, a leasing
incentive for a new resident or retaining a current resident moving
to a different unit, model moves, unit renovations, condo
conversions, or evictions.
There are 3 different levels of service you can offer. In order
of level of service they are 1) move only, 2) pack and move, and 3)
pack, move and unpack. By far the most common level of service is a
"move only". This means that the resident must be ready when the
San Diego movers arrive and the community is paying only to move
the resident's possessions.
The next level of service is "pack and move". This means the
movers are packing the resident's possessions, and moving them to
the destination. Each successive level of service increases the
cost of the move. So, how long does a move take and how much should
it cost? With each move there are 3 variables that affect how long
a move takes, and thus the cost of each move. They are access,
preparedness and what is being moved.
For example the same amount of possessions going from a first
floor unit to a first floor unit in the same community will go much
faster (and cost much less) then the same move from a 3rd floor
unit to another 3rd floor unit 25 miles away. The more prepared a
resident is, the quicker the move takes place. Being prepared means
having all electronics unplugged, possessions completely packed and
organized, etc.
Lastly, a move with expensive, fragile antiques, collections and
breakables takes longer then a move with everyday, standard
furniture and possessions. Regardless of which level of service is
offered, the San Diego moving company should always prep and pad
wrap all furniture, offer free use of wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap
any fragile possessions and disassemble and reassemble beds, and
other furniture as required.
Any San Diego moving companies you use should be checked out
thoroughly. Household goods moving is a regulated industry,
regulated by the California Public Utilities Commission (P.U.C.).
The laws that regulate moving have an odd name, the Max Rate Tariff
4. You can check to see that a moving company has a valid license
(a CAL T permit) on the P.U.C.'s website at 
<a href="http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/tmis/" target="_blank">http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/tmis/</a>. At this site you
can also confirm that the company has current worker's
compensation, general liability and cargo insurance. It would be
advised to also check the company's rating with the BBB and
preferably use a member of the SDCAA.
Worker's compensation insurance protects the community should
any of the mover's workers get injured. Liability insurance
protects the actual community from property damage, and cargo
insurance protects the household goods of the resident from damage
and loss.
Before the move starts, the resident is required to sign a
contract called the Agreement for Moving Services. On this contract
the resident selects a level of liability for the mover in case of
loss or damage to their possessions. The most common level of
liability coverage selected is the free, basic coverage. This
limits the liability of the mover to 60 cents per pound per
article. Thus if a TV that weighs 80 pounds is lost or damaged the
maximum liability of the mover is $48.00. Higher levels of coverage
can be selected by the resident, but it adds significant additional
cost to the move and is rarely if ever paid for by the
community.
Local moves (less then 100 miles between origin and destination)
are charged by the hour. Thus you want to use a moving company that
understands that your time is money and has crews, equipment and
knowledge to move efficiently.
Generally, moves without packing fall in the $400 to $1,000
range, but as indicated above, there can be variables that put the
final cost outside of that range. Each move is unique so it is best
to consult with a moving company that you know and trust before
undertaking a move.
