It is said that "those who fail to plan, plan to fail" and Carey believes that careful planning of your move is key to making it a pleasant one. These resources should help you in the planning phase of your move, and if you have any questions, please contact your nearest Carey office.

Estimate

The first step in your moving plans should be getting an estimate of your moving cost. Carey's highly-skilled professionals will be glad to prepare a quick estimate for you. It only takes a minute to do and can be handled right from our website.

Checklist

Moving can be a trying experience, especially if not well planned. At Carey we are committed to making your move as smooth as possible, so we have provided a checklist to help with your preparations.

Preparation

Your first contact with Carey Moving & Storage will be with one of our relocation consultant. Advising your family on every aspect of a well-planned move is the primary responsibility of this professional.

The relocation consultant will come to your home to explain to you and your family the many services that Carey offers. Having done that, the relocation consultant will perform a survey of everything in your home that will be moved — and he or she will probably point out things along the way that can't be moved (flammables such cans of paint, for example), that may require special attention (crating for a slate-top pool table, perhaps), or that must be prepared for the move by you or a third party (disconnecting a gas dryer or draining a waterbed are two common examples).

This survey allows the counselor to provide you with an estimate of costs (free online estimate) and various pricing options you may choose from. Once you've selected a mover, you'll be asked to sign an Order for Service at which point your relocation consultant will register your move with Carey.
