On average, Americans move once every five years. Moves today are not what they were a generation or two ago, when most of us had many fewer possessions (and fewer kinds of possessions). Today we have to consider not only how to get our clothes and books and housewares and kids’ toys from here to there, but we are also worried about how to pack computers and big-screen televisions and how to move three cars (with only two family drivers), exotic plants, and our Mexican gray parrot and black Lab.
The response to these sophisticated needs has been an astounding increase in the kinds of information and services available from professional movers. The pre-moving packet handed to you by a van line may well include advice about how to make the move easier for your children and how to prepare your pet for air or road travel to its new home as well as a Web site ad-dress where you can get information about calculating the cost of your move yourself. These services are, of course, in addition to the more traditional services movers still offer, including packing with materials specifically designed for each kind of item and doing an inventory of your goods.
