There is a multitude of benefits when it comes to living in downtown Detroit. You can be closer to restaurants, shops, and your favorite things to do. In addition to the shorter commutes to the things you love, you can save money on transport by using public transportation or walking where everything is close together. Furthermore, the new downtown areas are presenting more work opportunities and available jobs which makes it desirable for those in the workforce. As such, many people are interested in living in downtown areas and not just urban areas. Moving to downtown Northville, Plymouth, or Ann Arbor have its own special appeal, but it is not the same as moving to Detroit. Unfortunately, moving to any downtown can present its own unique problems.
Detroit is a city with a little bit of everything which makes it the perfect place to move. However, moving to Downtown Detroit can be difficult for first-time movers or people with little experience. Unlike suburban areas, downtown Detroit is extremely crowded. This leads to lots of pedestrian foot traffic and motor vehicle traffic which can affect the efficiency of your move. Additionally, driving downtown can be confusing due to the confusing layouts and one-way streets. Moving into multi-floor complexes can also be a big hassle for the less experienced. Hiring a local moving company with experience in the area you’re moving to can relieve a lot of stress in your move to downtown Detroit.
There’s a lot to do in the downtown areas of smaller cities. In areas such as Plymouth and Northville, local store owners own cute shops and the city comes together every season to celebrate holidays, local artists, and the community. While moving to a downtown area in smaller cities or townships may be easier than moving to downtown Detroit, it can still be a difficult process. Often, these smaller downtown areas have limited parking time and a lot of foot traffic. This foot traffic can make a move more strenuous and untimely. Also, multi-floor buildings in these areas may not have elevators which results in repeated trips up and down the stairs. By hiring a trusted mover near you, you’ll solve these issues!

It’s important to know what to expect from professional movers. Moving is one of the biggest stressors a person can experience. As a result, many people hire professional movers to make the process easier. However, understanding the expectation of the movers and yourself can make moving a cakewalk. So, what should expect from your professional movers?
Depending on the moving company, some of the expectations may vary. However, there are a few general expectations that all moving companies should meet. First of all, the movers should arrive on time for the job. Nobody likes to be kept waiting, especially when it comes to moving. While being a few minutes late can be forgiven, if it’s going to be longer than ten minutes then the movers should call you. Once the movers arrive, they should have a truck that can fit all of your items in (unless specified otherwise). You should also have at least 2-3 movers from the company.
Now, what they move can vary. While all moving companies will move boxes and furniture, there are a few things that moving companies will not move. For Men on the Move, those items are listed on our non-moveable items. In addition, moving companies can refrain from moving dangerous items Most importantly, they are responsible for moving your items in and out of the moving truck! While there are expectations for the movers, the client also has some responsibilities.
To make this easy, we are going to use Men on the Move’s expectations for clients. First of all, clients are responsible for packing. Pack everything in boxes instead of using plastic or paper bags. For all boxes, they should be:
After packing, clients are expected to prepare parking for the moving time. You need to reserve an ample amount of space for the moving truck. If the truck needs to use street parking, you need to inform the moving company about any meters so they can be capped by the city. During the winter, you need to clear the parking area and walkway from snow and ice. Contents of desk drawers should be emptied, however, file cabinets and dresser drawers’ content can remain (as long as you remove breakable items). If you need the movers to move appliances, it is the responsibility of the client to disconnect them before the movers arrive.
