Rhode Island, RI - Best Moving Companies & Movers

Because Rhode Island is so small, there are a number of long distance moving companies in Rhode Island with experience moving individuals and families across state lines.  This beautiful little state has a high density of higher learning institutions like Brown University, the University of Rhode Island, Salve Regina, Roger Williams, Bryant, and the New England Institute of Technology.  Because of this, many Rhode Island movers have student moving services, and some specialize in this type of moving.  The Naval Base at Newport keeps military and government personnel moving to and from Rhode Island as well, so Rhode Island movers may also specialize in these moves.  Getting Rhode Island moving quotes is easy when you are prepared.

Here are some tips on collecting Rhode Island moving quotes:

• 1. Rhode Island movers will want to know how much stuff you need moved.  If you are moving from a small apartment in Providence, you will have less than someone who is moving from an estate in Newport. 

• 2. In-state and long distance moving companies in Rhode Island will also want to know where you are moving.  The distance and ease of transportation will affect the cost.  For instance, Rhode Island moving quotes for moving from Cranston to Narragansett will be much cheaper than if you are moving from Portsmouth to Australia with Rhode Island long distance moving companies that specialize in international moves.

• 3. Check to see if you have any items that require special care.  Piano moving needs special attention, as do antique furniture, extraordinarily heavy items, sophisticated electronics, and valuable/fragile art and collectibles.  If you have any of these things, you will need to ask about the specific experience Rhode Island movers have with your particular items whether you are moving them to a different neighborhood in Charlestown or around the world with long distance moving companies in Rhode Island.

• 4. Decide how much help you want from the in-state or long distance moving companies in Rhode Island you are considering.  With some short distance moves (like from south Providence to North Providence) you may want to transfer your own belongings and get help moving your special care items.  However, if you are extremely busy or crunched for time, you may need full service packing and moving services.  Knowing ahead of time exactly what you need makes it easier to get accurate Rhode Island moving quotes. 

Always check the references and professional reputation of potential moving companies before signing contracts!
