| There are two types of estimates you could receive from your Southampton County Area mover. The two types are Binding/Non-Binding Estimate: A binding estimate is an agreement with the mover made in advance of the move. A non-binding estimate is the carrier's approximation of the cost based on the estimated weight of the shipment and the accessorial services requested. |
 |
| You may want to arrange for someone to take care of the kids (and pets) while the Southampton County Area movers are packing and loading your items. Have the caregiver bring the kids back home prior to the truck leaving as it important for young children to understand where their belongings are going. |
 |
| Decide on Tipping your Southampton County Area movers. Should you? It is completely up to you. Many individuals do tip the driver and let him disperse the portion to the crew that they think is appropriate. You decide! |
 |
| Have a big screen tv or expensive vase. Your Southampton County Area mover may charge a fee for High Value Article. These are items included in a shipment that are valued at more than $100 per pound. These items should be disclosed to the mover to ensure they are protected accordingly. |
 |
| In some cases a Southampton County Area mover may speak with you about Accessorial (Additional) Services. These are services such as packing, appliance servicing or unpacking that you request to be performed (or are necessary because of landlord requirements or other special circumstances). Charges for these services are in addition to the transportation charges. |
 |
| If you are going to have friends or family help in the moving process, line these people up ahead of time, as people need time to 'fit' your moving day into their day. Have someone on standby, as people get sick. Have your Southampton County Area movers ordered as far in advance as possible. |
 |
| If you have children, pack special items for the kids. Have the kids pack a box of their "special" items, things that they'll want to have nearby as soon as you all arrive at your new home. Point this box out to the Southampton County Area mover so it's one of the first boxes to be unloaded. |
