Benefits of Working With A Trusted New Home Moving Company
We Have The Capacity For Your Move
New home moves often require larger capacity than apartment moves, especially if you’re moving from one house to another, because homeowners typically have more things to move than apartment movers. We have the ability to handle moves of all sizes, so whether you need 1 truck or 10, we’ve got you covered.
We Won’t Disturb Your New Neighbors
The last thing you need is to make bad first impression on your new neighbors. Longhorn respects not only our customers, but the neighborhoods we work in. We never leave trash behind in the neighborhood, we leave room on the street for your neighbors to pass, and we don’t disrupt the peace with excessive noise.
We Treat Our Community Like Family
Unlike national moving companies, Longhorn has kept a small business approach to business. Simply put, our customers are our family and we take great pride in our service to you.
Moving during time of low demand and high availability can save you money. Summer and Spring are peak moving season, while Fall and Winter provide an opportunity for cost savings. Additionally, weekday moves typically provide greater opportunity for deals with moving companies than weekends.

Key Things To Consider Before Moving Into Your New Home
Moving to a new home is an exciting time! But if you aren’t prepared, your big day could turn into a big nightmare. Longhorn doesn’t just want to help you move your things from one place to the next, we want to go the extra mile to make sure your overall experience is as stress-free as possible. Below we have outlined some important things for you to consider before your new home move. Not all of it relates to what a moving company can do, but we are more than a moving company. We are your moving partner.
Pack What You Can In Advance
In most cases, a significant number of items can be packed in advance of your move. Things like pictures, decorations, clothing, and other items that aren’t required for use on a daily basis can be packed ahead of time. This will save you a lot of time in the days before your move and on moving day. It will help you avoid the frantic rush of forgetting to pack certain things, and it will also give you an idea of the amount of packing materials you need for the whole move. You may be surprised to find out how fast packing tape runs out, or how many boxes you actually need.

Change Your Address
You’ve been writing your address for a while, and it may be as habitual as writing your name, but don’t forget to change your address when you move. You will need to let your employer know of your new location, as well as a host of other institutions such as your bank, your kids’ school, and yes, even your mother-in-law. While this may seem like a no-brainer, sometimes the most obvious things are the ones that get overlooked when you have a million things to do, so put this one on the check-list in bold.

Clean Your Old Home
It will take more time than you think. Even if you’re a very clean person, when you start moving furniture you’re bound to realize there is more to be done than you thought. Not only that, the process of packing creates messes in and of itself, so plan to clean in stages so you don’t have to do it all at once. Work on things that won’t get cluttered during the packing process, like the fridge, oven, microwave, and windows. If you’ve already sold your home before your move-out date, make sure you’re leaving it in the condition you agreed upon with the buyer. Even if the new occupants aren’t moving in right away, you don’t want to leave a mess in an unoccupied home that could attract pests.

Schedule Shutoff Of Your Utilities
This is the one that gets forgotten about most often. With all the things on your mind ahead of your move, you may not remember that your water, electric, gas, and internet services are all tied to your current address and will need to be canceled or transferred to your new location. This can be a costly mistake, because you may be on the hook for the next month’s service after you move if you don’t provide advanced notice to the providers before you move.

Consider If You Can Sell Or Donate Items
Most people accumulate items they no longer need or use over time. It doesn’t make you a hoarder....or maybe in some cases it does.....but moving is the perfect time to go through your house and determine what really needs to make the trip to the new home and what could be sold or donated. Not only could you make some extra cash or help others in need, you could significantly reduce the work and effort put into moving by eliminating items that will end up in permanent storage at your new home.
