Emergency move: do it yourself or hire a moving company?

Managing an emergency move

An emergency move almost always comes unexpectedly and usually certainly not voluntarily. There can be various reasons why someone has to move urgently: a death, a divorce, the termination of a lease, sudden water damage or fire damage. All situations for which you are not or cannot be prepared. A lot suddenly comes at you if you have to move to another home in a hurry or have to clear out a house. Below we tell you how you can manage an emergency move properly, without it causing too much tension for those involved.

Want to do an emergency move yourself?

If you want to save money, you can of course do an emergency move yourself. Make sure that you have enough friends and family ready on moving day to pack and carry your belongings and that you have transportation to transport your belongings. Also make sure that you purchase more than enough moving boxes for the small items and that you have protective materials at home to transport large furniture without scratches or dents. If you have to go from location A to location B within a few days, it is a major operation to carry out an emergency move yourself. Be warned: the stress involved can quickly cause tensions between people during the move! If you ask us, that is not necessary. In the event of an emergency move, call in a moving company in. This will save you a lot of hassle!

Emergency move with moving company

We are not suggesting that an emergency move be done with a moving company without a hitch: the hassle of the short time frame in which the move has to take place gives you enough paperwork - address changes, etc. - to not be able to think about everything at once. But by hiring a moving company, you at least arrange the most important thing: the move itself. Why is it best to leave this to a moving company? A moving company has a lot of experience with emergency moves. They ensure that the move goes smoothly. They take care of the packing and unpacking of your belongings, the transport, the assembly and/or disassembly of your furniture and the removal of waste. So your move is arranged urgently!

There is no need to worry about an emergency move

Most people dread an emergency move. We explained why above. But we would also like to reassure you: by hiring a removal company, you can be sure that your move will go smoothly. You will then have little to worry about. If you organize the paperwork and inform the authorities yourself, you can be sure that everything will be back to normal quickly, even in the event of an emergency move.
