Even self-proclaimed minimalists will tell you that moving everything you own can quickly get expensive — even if you’re only moving a few blocks away. And while some moving costs are unavoidable, there are plenty of ways to cut costs and save yourself a headache.

Save During Your Next Move

1. Don’t use a moving company.

When you hire a moving company, most of what you pay for is the labor needed to pack up your home in one day. But when you choose to work with a company like Go Mini's Franchising, LLC., you can pack up your entire home in a few weeks, and according to your schedule.

2. Know how to find inexpensive packing materials.

No one wants to spend hundreds of dollars on boxes and packing materials that will just end up being thrown out once you get to your new home.

Go Mini's Franchising, LLC. has partnered with UBoxes to ensure your valuables stay safe and secure, without breaking the bank! Whether you need supplies for the entire home or just one room, we supply:

Boxes
Packing peanuts
Packing tape
Glass & dish packs
Mattress covers
So much more

3. Time your move well (if you can).

While this may not be possible for everyone, you can save a lot of money by moving during traditionally less expensive times, like the fall and winter. Because most people move at the beginning of the summer, many companies offer discounted rates during “off-peak” times.

4. Sell and donate as much as you can.

Moving is a great time to take stock of what you have. If you come across clothes you haven’t worn in years or small appliances you no longer use, consider selling or donating them. This will cut down on the amount of stuff you have to move while also earning you a little extra money.

Go Mini's Franchising, LLC. is committed to minimizing your worries and maximizing your storage space. We can work with your needs and your schedule to ensure you have the best storage experience.
