Moving from Phoenix, Arizona with Long Distance Movers
The warm climate, diverse and rich cultural and historical backgrounds are just some of the things that attract people to Phoenix, Arizona. Located in the Valley of the Sun, Arizona’s capital is among the popular American cities to move to. If you consider moving here, our Phoenix movers will make your relocation as smooth as possible. But before you enroll in this Wild West adventure, let’s find out more about this amazing city.
Located in the Sonoran Desert, this city is among the hottest in America, with temperatures above 100°F in the summer and around 67 degrees in winter. It is also the sunniest metropolis in the US, with 334 sunshine days a year. The Greater Phoenix Area has a population of nearly 4.5 million, while the city core counts around 1.6 million people, which makes it the only state capital with more than a million people living there. The Phoenix metro area is commonly called the Valley of the Sun because it is located in the valley of the Salt River and is surrounded by mountains.
The name Phoenix was proposed by pioneer Phillip Darrell Duppa, who said that the new city is rising on the ashes of ancient native Hohokam civilization, like a Greek mythological sunbird. And in fact, the most crucial part of the city, its irrigation system, was built on top of the old Hohokam systems. Water is something you will learn to appreciate around here, but even if this impossible city is located in the middle of the desert, people managed to have plenty of it. Let’s just say Phoenicinas love their gardens, golf courses, and pools. In fact, one of Marilyn Monroe’s favorite pools was here.
Temperature can be high, and yes, it is true you can cook an egg pretty much everywhere, but because there is no humidity, you will not feel the heat. But the weather is not the only thing that makes this city such a hot destination. In recent years it has become the most popular place to move to, and many young professionals aged 30-45 have moved here – where the development of new strong technology-based markets made the economy of the Valley very fast-growing.
Yes, that is right. If you decide to move here, there will be plenty of job opportunities, a low cost of living, and affordable housing waiting for you. Renting a one-bedroom apartment in the city center will cost you around $1,200, while you will pay $1,000 for the same apartment outside the center. But considering that in the Valley you will go everywhere with a car, proximity to downtown doesn’t have to be a big factor when renting or buying a house.
When we are at this subject, buying a home will cost you $307 per square foot in a city center and $171 outside of it. The Valley of the Sun covers a vast area of around 2,000 square miles, so you can imagine there are a lot of neighborhoods for you to choose from. Here are some of the hottest neighborhoods in the Valley:
Like many Phoenicians, you will learn to love the outdoors. After all, it is an endless summer, a dream come true for many. PHX is famous for its outstanding hotel resorts, pools, and desert gardens – and one of the most famous is Desert Botanical Garden. The long trail that is spreading on the 140-acre property will lead you through the most unique botanical exhibitions you ever saw, and not only that, you will enjoy a variety of cactuses, lush lagoons, exotic flowers, and other plants but arts as well. Speaking of succulents, Arizona is home to the most amazing saguaro cactus. And since the city is in the desert, there is no wonder many activities are arranged in the desert, too – festivals and music events.
You should also pay a visit to a ZOO, Arabian Horse Show in Scottsdale, Renaissance Festival, go on a hike on the White Tank Mountain Regional Park trail, and see the city from a new perspective. Now it is time to leave your umbrella and to pack your jeans (jeans are mandatory here,) and get ready for a truly amazing adventure, and our Phoenix movers will make sure that this life-changing transition goes without stress and troubles.
Long Distance Movers, with years of experience and many satisfied customers, are moving company specialized in big relocations. So, if you are moving cross country and need a reputable and professional team of movers in Phoenix, you came to the right place.
We strive to make your move as smooth as possible. Our employees will make sure all your needs are met in the best possible way. And the best part? The price of our moving services is based solely on an inventory list. And why is this important? With our company, there are no hidden costs. We set our quote based on your inventory list, so it doesn’t matter if you are relocating pianos or a pool table – your move will cost the same. Before we give you a precise estimate of the costs, you can contact us on our website for a free quote. After this, our agents will come to your home to give you a precise in-home estimation based on your inventory list.
One of the most challenging things about a long-distance move is packing your entire house. This is why we provide our customers professional packing services. Our movers in Phoenix will handle your belongings with the utmost care, and you can rest assured that the safety of your items is our top priority. We use blankets, custom crating (for things that are unusual size or shape), furniture pads, bubble wrap, and top-notch boxes to pack your belongings most efficiently and professionally. Our professionals are trained and skilled packers, and they can pack everything you need. They will disassemble and reassemble your furniture of all shapes and sizes, and pack paintings, statues, musical instruments, electronic devices, and so on.
But what about your belongings that are small enough to fit into a box? We’ve got you covered there, too. If you wish that our professional crew pack most or all your belongings, go for a full packing service. Still, we at Phoenix long distance movers know some items are delicate, and maybe you don’t want us to handle them. This is why our company offers a partial packing service. With partial, we will only pack the things you tell us to pack. But bear in mind that if we pack more than 15 boxes, we consider that full service.
We have a year of experience in this industry, and we know how much good relocation and safety of your items depends on quality boxes and packing supplies. So we’ll come to your home well prepared. Whether you go with standard packing services or opt for a partial or full one, our team will bring all the necessary boxes and other supplies (like bubble wraps, blankets, furniture pads, and others) with them, so you don’t have to worry about acquiring them.
If you wish to ship your car from one corner of the country to another, it can be done for a reasonable price. This means you don’t need to worry about hiring a different company to do the car shipping. When you move, you get the whole package and best of all you can even choose what kind of auto transport service you want.
When we talk about the car shipping business, our moving services Phoenix are the best in the field. With us, you can choose to ship your car in an open and enclosed carrier. An open trailer is most commonly used because of its price (it is much more affordable), and it’s convenient, especially when the whole family is being relocated and more cars are involved. With the open carrier, your car will be safe and secured, but it might need a little washing upon arrival. We can not protect them from bad weather and road debris.
The insurance coverage for open trailers is lower as well, and it goes up to $100.000 if any external damage occurs, which is rare, but it can happen. After all, accidents and nasty weather are something none of us can foresee. With an enclosed trailer, you will not have these kinds of problems and worries, but you will pay more. This type of service is usually used for luxurious and sports cars. But if your car has sentimental value for you, you can freely choose this option as well. Insurance for this service goes up to $500,000 in damages.
You can also choose between two types of pickup and delivery options. Door-to-door delivery means we will pick up your car at your front yard and deliver it the same way. This option costs more but you will not have to go anywhere to pick the vehicle up. The only exception is if your street is too narrow for a trailer to come in. In this case, your car will be left at the nearest commercial parking lot. The other option is terminal-to-terminal, and which requires you to leave your car at the nearest parking lot of our long distance movers in Phoenix AZ, and your car will be delivered to you at the terminal at your new location as well.
If your relocation got complicated (your new place is not done yet, or you have to leave your house earlier,) don’t worry – we got your back. Just for these kinds of situations, we offer our customers free of charge storage facilities so they can store their items for a month. Our storage units come at various sizes and prices, so you can choose the best fit for your budget. No matter what kind of units you take, you can be assured that your items are safe. With the best quality surveillance system and climate control, your stuff will be protected from robbery and humidity as well.
Our long-distance movers in Phoenix provide our clients with mandatory moving insurance. Even though our professionals will handle your items with the most care, accidents can occur, rarely though it may be. This is why we have basic insurance of 0.60 cents per pound of damaged goods if anything happens. We know that maybe this price is not as high as you would like. This is why we encourage our clients to take a full coverage policy.
Bear in mind that our insurance becomes effective from the moment our professionals start handling your belongings and ends when they are safely delivered to your new location.
Now that you know all about PHX, you probably plan to move there, like many other young professionals. It is time to start making all the arrangements necessary for your relocation. Contact our agents and arrange a meeting with them. Our advice is to begin the relocation process as soon as possible, at least one month before your move. This way, you will have plenty of time to wrap up things, and our professionals will give you all the necessary help you need in this whole process.
