Milwaukee Moving to Single-Stream Recycling Plan

milwaukee — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 20:48:18 +0000

Milwaukee’s recycling program has begun moving over to “single-stream” recycling. What is single-stream recycling? Simply a style of recycling which does not have near the sorting requirements of traditional recycling where different types of glass metal and plastics are separated depending on the material. Not only will Milwaukee’s move to single-stream make recycling more convenient for participants, it will also enable Milwaukee to accept more types of material such as used pots and pans. The change to Milwaukee’s recycling plan will also reduce the use of oil which is also a plus. Overall, the transition to single-stream recycling for Milwaukee sounds like an excellent move!

Milwaukee Movers Love New Water Slide

milwaukee — Mon, 02 May 2011 22:18:21 +0000

If the Cherry St. Bridge is part of your weekly route, you may have noticed a seemingly out of place water slide painted on a wall bordering the Milwaukee River. Your movers here frequently pass the ad/artwork and it has certainly grabbed our attention. A brilliant head-turner, the water slide painting starts at the top of the wall, and winds down ending cleverly where a natural water pipeline is to flow into the river. The already thought provoking piece of street art is actually part of an ad campaign aimed at increasing awareness of the importance of river water sanitation, and just became a little more thought provoking as the water flow was turned on today at noon! The advertising firm behind the water slide ad is called thirsty boy, and apparently has a lot more up their sleeves as far as raising river awareness is concerned. Your Milwaukee movers here are a fan of the message, and definitely a fan of the brilliant visual; we can’t wait to see what Thirsty Boy has in store!

It Could Be Worse!

milwaukee — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 20:47:48 +0000

Things don’t always go the way we would like them to. Furthermore; some things go so terribly wrong that you almost expect to wake up soon from what must be a vivid nightmare. As a professional Milwaukee mover, you hear about moving related horror stories on a daily basis; people learn the hard way sometimes that hiring less-than professional movers is extremely detrimental to not only your personal property, but to your sanity as well.
Recently, I came across a news story which made me cringe. It is bad enough imagining what it must be like to be in the place of those who have had a local move botched by a fly-by-night moving company. This story takes the cake for the “It Could Be Worse” prize by far! The news story tells of a local demolition company and how they leveled the wrong house! Imagine pulling into your drive way to the pile of rubble and debris that used to be your home! I can’t imagine what the owner of this wrongfully-demolished home could possibly consider as a could-be-worse scenario.
When the going gets tough it can always be worse. But why wait until disaster strikes to think this way? When it comes to moving in Milwaukee, you have a neighborhood professional mover available night and day to safely deliver your belongings to your new home. Yes it can always be worse, but can’t it always be better too? Of course it can! Hiring professional movers for your relocation needs is the solution for avoiding nightmare relocation situations. Nightmare situations where your only optimism exists in your imagination of what else could have gone wrong that didn’t. If you’ve been burned by a non professional Milwaukee moving company recently, it could be worse; you could have been the home-owner in the wrongfully-leveled house news story. And you can always hire reputable movers next time!

Saving Money

milwaukee — Tue, 30 Nov 2010 16:13:48 +0000

Saving money is a practice that should never cease. If you really put your mind to it, you’ll see that saving money is easy, almost as easy as spending it! One of my favorite money saving tricks is surely a technique that we’ve all been familiar with since childhood. Find a bottle, a jar, a bucket, any container that you’d like and empty your pocket change into it as often as possible. Each deposit is so small, yet pocket change reservoirs add up quicker than you think. It almost feels like free money! Have your bank help you save too. Lots of financial institutions have developed creative techniques to help you tuck little amounts of money away at a time that really add up as the months go by. Such as Bank of America’s “keep the change” program. It is important, as any savings expert knows, to avoid dipping into your savings. Pretend like your savings funds don’t exist if you have to, and never stop saving. Little by little your savings may end up being the down payment on a gorgeous new house or sports car.

Your local Milwaukee moving company is very much devoted to helping you save money! Anytime you hire reputable Milwaukee movers to relocate your home, you are sure to be in the hands of skilled professionals who will move you very quickly and efficiently. As one of Milwaukee’s top professional moving companies, we know that helping you save money is one of many ways we can show that we care.

Have you ever thought about why most people decide to move to a new location? The US Census of 2009 discovered that most Americans move because they desire a new or better home. The owner either out grew their existing home or just desired a new location with better amenities. Another major reason was that people wanted cheaper housing. Let’s face it, because of our recent economic woes; it’s still a buyer’s market. Are you looking to move in Milwaukee or out of the area? What’s your reason for moving?

Moving 101: Basic Terminology

milwaukee — Fri, 01 Oct 2010 17:31:18 +0000

Here are a few terms that will assist you with your upcoming move in Milwaukee.

Accessorial (Additional) Services – services such as packing, unpacking, extra stop, or shuttle that you request to be performed (or are necessary because of landlord requirements or other special circumstances). Charges for these services are in addition to the transportation costs.

Agent – an affiliated moving company authorized to act on behalf of the van line. The agent may handle the booking, origin, hauling and/or destination services.

Bill of Lading – customer’s receipt for goods and contract Bill of Lading – customer’s receipt for goods and contract for transportation. The customer’s signature acknowledges that the household goods can be loaded on the van and “released to the carrier.”

Binding/Non-Binding Estimate – a binding estimate is an agreement made in advance between the customer and the mover that guarantees the total cost of the move based on the quantities and services shown on the estimate. A non-binding estimate is the carrier’s approximation of the cost based on the estimated weight of the shipment and the accessorial services requested. A non-binding estimate is not binding on the carrier and the final charges will be based on the actual weight and tariff provisions in effect on the day of the load.

Booking Agent – accepts the order for the customer’s move and registers it with the van line. The booking agent may or may not be the origin or destination agent.

Bulky Article – to ensure safe transportation, some articles included in a shipment (i.e., big screen TVs, motorcycles, hot tubs, etc.) require extra handling and/or blocking. Our tariff provides a schedule of extra charges for such articles.

Carrier – the moving company providing interstate transportation of household goods under whose Department of Transportation registration the shipment is moved.

Claim – statement of loss, damage, or delay to a household good shipment while in the care, custody or control of the carrier or its affiliated agent.
