Do you know the terms Moving and Relocation? What is the difference between them? If you don’t know, Guardamuebles y Mudanzas will tell you.
There are many reasons why people decide to move from one place to another, sometimes within the same town, community or country. Most often these are linked to positive changes related to obtaining a new job, the search for better study opportunities or the possibility of a different environment for the family.
In any case, they will always bring with them a moment that, for most people, generates stress and deep concerns: the transportation of material possessions. Mainly because this involves an expense, both financially and physically. Of course, there are ways of making things happen easily and at little cost, which also depends on whether it is a large or small relocation, whether what you need is a moving or a relocation. What, you thought it was all the same thing? No, they are not.
Let’s take a closer look…
What is a Relocation?
To give you a fairly clear idea of what a relocation is, we could define it as a small-scale removal, since it involves moving objects of small volume from one place to another. These things can be boxes, household appliances, utensils, suitcases, luggage, and even some furniture, such as a chair or a stool.
When requesting a transport service, it is important to be clear that only the transportation is included. The contracting party is responsible for packing, loading and unloading. Of course, this is usually a low-cost job, because it involves only the driver.
What is a Moving like?
What characterises a moving is the transfer of all furniture and objects from one residence to another, therefore, greater efforts are urgently required. People hire companies that, in addition to the vehicle for the transportation, are directly involved in the process of packing, loading and unloading the belongings.
From an economic point of view, removals requires a little more investment, but the physical and mental benefits are truly incalculable. The companies’ equipment ends up preventing a lot of headaches, discomfort and drudgery.
Key differences between Moving and Relocation
The main difference between moving and relocation has to do with the number of personnel involved. One person as a driver is all that is needed to carry a load.
On the other hand, movings implies, depending on the quantity and size of the objects, the deployment of a whole staff specialised in each of the tasks to be carried out, before and during the mobilisation process.
The type of transport used also differs. Movings must be carried out in lorries or vans and, for certain eventualities, cranes or semi-trailers may be used. A car or motorbike is useful for relocations.
Another notable difference is in terms of service. Moving companies have exclusive services for residences and businesses, while relocations can be used to bring recently purchased household appliances and utensils home, without having a specialised service.
