by Gaurav Teotia Senior Manager
When you get a coupon for a 50% discount or any other offer, then definitely you will be very excited about it. If the same will happen with the moving cost of household goods, vehicles then it sounds great. We know moving to a new house can be a costly and hectic process. Especially when you have not planned it. In some situations when you have planned things but at the time of shifting suddenly, some unexpected expenses come out during shifting. Shifting of the home is not an easy process; it requires a lot of planning and homework.  So we have done some homework on your behavior so that your money should be saved. Here we will talk about how to save money during the shifting process and how to reduce moving costs and unexpected expenses which suddenly occur. Let's begin with a quick and easy solution.

Killers solutions to save or reduce moving cost while shifting

• Planning 
When we know shifting is costly, in that case never schedule your shifting in a hurry. You have to avoid the sifting as much as possible, if it's an emergency then you can. But you have to avoid it until you come up with something.  If you are aware that after a few months you are going to have a transfer or you have to face a transfer process, start planning after knowing about your transfer. This way you will get the best solution. You will get time to choose the service provider and will also help you in choosing the stuff which you want to carry to your new house. Never disclose the right date of the transfer, if the service provider knows about your urgent requirement, and they will definitely charge more from you, after seeing your urgency of the transfer. And at that point in time, you will feel helpless, and you will get another option and then you have to pay a lot. So, schedule everything before shifting, so that everything goes in your favor. 

• Sorting
One of the topmost requirements of planning to move is to sort out a few things.  This means separate the things which are not required in the new house and which are required. Make two different sections of the things. Practically speaking, always carry lesser things with you, so that you don't have to pay much. It is better to sell out the older stuff and the things which you haven't used for a long time and there is no chance to be used in the future. This way you will be able to reduce your load and you will be able to save money also. By selling the old stuff you will get some money also or you will get some extra pocket money. Also, you can donate things.
 
• Scheduling 
Every business has its off-seasons, month-end, etc. whenever you shift in peak season you have to pay an extra amount because all movers and packers are having a lot of deliveries and their charges are also high on the peak seasons.  Like this packers and movers also have off-seasons. If you plan to shift in the off-season, then it will favor you and the companies will charge less as compared with the rest of the season. It is always better to shift in the month of August to December, which is considered as an off-season for the movers and packers. When you hire any packers and movers in the off-season, they will cost you less, at that time you will get some amazing offers and deals because at that time a lot of competition is there and all are ready to give you services at a lower rate, so grab some amazing deals at that time. 

• Comparing
When looking for the services and looking for the quotations, we always find them very expensive, but actually, they are not. With the help of the right movers and packers, you can save money from the sudden expenses like packing supplies cost, transportation costs, security of the cost of your item, and you don't need to put extra time and effort into the shifting.
If you get the right moving company which offers services at affordable prices for that you need to do some homework. You need to do the proper research about the reliability of each mover before hiring them. At least you need to compare three companies' quotations. After comparing all the possible scenarios of the companies then only choose the right mover and packers company for you.

• Budgeting 
Every business and household runs on a budget. The basic principle says we have to learn how to save money and spend only on what is necessary. This principle works in every situation. While we go shopping for groceries or anything else. Now this principle will be applicable to the shifting. This will help you to control your expenses and avoid unnecessary expenditures. Don't stick with the budget, you need to be a little flexible because sometimes some sudden expenses occur and you have to pay them off. You can reduce the cost by doing a couple of things to make sure that you don’t pay unnecessarily like be careful while loading or unloading of the items, never take unnecessary things in the shifting which are not required in the future, avoid shifting in the peak seasons and do not travel in the peak traffic hours so that you don’t pay for the extra time spent on the road. So figure out each and every aspect of the shifting, this will help you and you will stick to your budget.
