I spent countless hours searching for the right moving company to help me move across town. After speaking to several other companies, I contacted Mclean Movers. They were, hands down, the best moving company for the job. I should have gone with my gut and hired them immediately instead of wasting time searching for other companies. I was on a tight budget and they made sure I didn’t exceed it.

I had a great experience with Mclean Movers. A few months ago, I was searching for some good packers and movers on the internet I found Mclean Movers, I had to move from Bowie to Mclean area, I so glad I found them and hired them to help me relocate to my new house. The quote and the money I paid after the move was nearly the same. The movers were very professional and they moved me to my new house quickly as they promised. They were careful and they worked without stopping for a break, I really appreciate all your effort guys!

I moved from Annapolis to Mclean and used Mclean Movers just a few months ago. When I called for an estimate they gave me all kinds of payment options and even had someone out there that afternoon to give me an estimate. On moving day, they showed up when they said they would, and helped me get everything packed up and onto the truck. They made my moving stress free. Great job guys!

Moving Hints:
• Start early- Almost everyone has more stuff than they think they do, and almost no one leaves enough time to pack it.
• Room Lists- Start by forming two room lists, one for your current place and one for your future place. This will help you manage what has to go where.
• Room Inventory- Go to each room and write down the types of things that need to be packed: furniture items, length of shelving, closets, etc.
• Time Allotment- Make sure to leave enough time. The most common timeframe reported by people moving is that it takes a month to pack. One study reported that it takes 4-5 hours to pack an average dorm room, so that should give you an idea of what’s involved.
• Calendar- Pull out a calendar and plan by day when each room will be completed.
• Delegation- If you’re moving with family members, agree with them exactly while tasks they will be doing and the date they will be finished.
• Track your progress- at least once per week track where you are against the date on the calendar. Revise your plan if you’re falling behind.
• Referrals- Get referrals from local real estate agents and friends who have moved recently.
• Licensing- Only consider movers that are licensed, bonded and insured.
• Research- Investigate your potential movers through the U.S. Department of Transportation, MovingScam-dot-com and the Better Business Bureau.
• In-home estimates- Evaluate a minimum of 3 movers based on in-home estimates of goods to be moved.
• Price- Price isn't the only factor- extremely low bids indicate a desperate mover.
• "Binding Not-To-Exceed"- Ask for written "Binding Not-To-Exceed" estimates.
• Avoid "rogue movers"- if you feel uncomfortable, trust your instincts! Never agree to move your possessions with anyone you don’t trust.
• When packing electronics, a picture is worth 1000 words- Use a digital or cell phone camera to take pictures of how complicated wiring (computer cords, speaker wires) is hooked up. Be sure to use plenty of light and careful focus so the pictures will be clear. Print each picture and put it in the top of the box holding the item. This will make hooking up the items in your new place much easier.
