Relocating: How Many Movers Will You Need?

When you’re moving to a new home, it’s understandable if you need someone to help you move. While you can always ask your friends to do it for you, it’s also highly recommended that you hire a local moving company to help you. That way, you can get the job done much faster. However, whenever homeowners are moving, most of them tend to ask themselves a recurring question: how many people will they need to help them out? 

According to experts, this actually depends on the size of your home. Here’s how many people you’ll need to help you move:

Small Apartment

If you live in a small apartment, and you have an average amount of furniture, you should only need two movers to assist you. With their help, you should be able to get all your things to your new home within four hours.

One to Two Bedroom Home or Apartment

Similar to a small apartment, if you live in a one to two bedroom home or apartment, you should only need two movers to help you. Within five hours, you should be moved to your new location.

Two to Three Bedroom Home or Apartment

On the other hand, if you’re moving from a moderately sized home with two to three bedrooms, experts say that you would need three movers to help you pack up and move your belongings.

Three to Four Bedroom Home or Apartment

If you live in a home or apartment with three to four bedrooms, it would take you eight hours to pack and unload your things in your new home with the aid of three movers.

Four Bedrooms and Up

Finally, if you live in a home that has four bedrooms or more, you would need the aid of five movers to be able to move out within eight to 10 hours.
