Packing is not a one-day affair; it takes time, sometimes weeks if you do it between work, kids, and everyday responsibilities. On the other hand, packing professionals take just a few hours or, at most, a day.
Kai Moving Pro Tip: Our clients never fail to express their amazement at how quickly our team completes a full packing job. This allows clients to devote more time to other moving activities, such as setting up utilities or bidding farewell to neighbors.
Moving can be a rather stressful activity. Why add to the stress by attempting to do everything single-handedly? Hiring a packing service mitigates one of the most stressful and tedious tasks involved in the moving process.
When you give Kai Moving the responsibility of your packing, you can relax knowing that your belongings are being expertly managed.
Professional packers receive training on how to pack quickly, securely, and efficiently. It means your dishes, TVs, mirrors, and other valuables are far more likely to survive in transit.
Our industry-grade materials and techniques guarantee the safe arrival of everything, which is especially important when moving long distances or transporting fragile items.
When Kai Moving handles your packing and moving, it is easier to process claims if any damage does occur. Since the movers (not you) did the packing, it reinforces your protection under most valuation and insurance policies.
Conversely, if you handle the packing from start to end and something breaks, reimbursement can be tricky, especially if the item was not packed correctly.
