Cross Country Moving, Interstate Moving, Nationwide Moving... just what kind of moving service is it?
Moving is something that most people handle differently. Some people go through a major stress cycle with each and every move while other folks seem to take to the process like fish to water. Regardless of how much of a moving pro you happen to be, there is a large difference betwixt moving across town in Tulsa and moving across the country. A local move is something you may be adept to handle on your own with numerous car trips and a few friends to assist. But, moving cross-country or even just a few states over will necessitate packing your belongings into a single trip, including all the bulky furniture, which means you will need a moving truck, some serious packing material, and most likely a team of expert movers to make sure you do not crush yourself with your own dresser or ding up the walls as you are moving things through.
But which moving service should you pick? If you're paging through a list of choices, especially for long-distance moving, it could seem like there are a lot of different types of moving services for long distances and every one has a different names. Actually, every moving company in the business in your city, your destination town, and all the places in between has a special name for their non-local moves. You may see Nationwide Moving offered, Cross-Country Moving, or Interstate Moving catalogued right next to quirky strange names like The Long Move or Anywhere-to-Anywhere. What if you are moving far but not physically crossing state lines? Do you require a different service for moving coast to coast or to a remote area? Finding out the variation between these services, or even if different names mean anything at all, can cause a major headache.
But fear not. What it boils down to is these are all different names for the exact same service. Of course, the particulars of what each company has to offer will vary from moving company to moving company, but what they are supplying is not a huge variety of location-specific services. A long-distance move by any other name is still a long-distance move. The imperative thing to understand is the distinction between this and 'local' moves which follow a distinct type of pricing and planning policies.
Understanding that you are comparing the same levels of service every time is a breath of fresh air for stressed out professionals and families about to make a huge move, but all these distinct names do make it difficult to search for and compare these services. To lend a hand, here's a little list of all the different ways that we have seen long-distance moves named. There are probably a few we have omitted because some moving companies get creative, but this can give you a starting point.
Do not let all these distinct names confuse you. While the search engine results could differ, these are all alike services supplied by different moving companies using slightly distinct wording. Each one of these services simply means that you will be moving more than a few blocks or towns from your current location in Tulsa.
