Gone are the days when you would need to take a day off work to showing a handful of movers around your home so that they could measure up everything that needed to be packed and shipped. Some clever techies have come up with a number of tools to make the inventory process much simpler with an app based survey tool that links the Mover to the Movee via smart phone video call – the app helps to record and estimate the volume of the items that need to be moved, so that the Mover can accurately estimate a cost for the door to door moving. This also makes the quotation more accurate.
There is also a number of assignment management systems available for companies with employees working on short and long term assignments overseas. The software offers the businesses complete functionality, and transparency across cost-estimates, to consignment tracking, expense management, and even visa and immigration issues.
its always best to shop around for international moving quotations, and there are a few websites that offer a one-shop for introducing you to a handful of Movers who specialize in providing international removal services. Clickmoves recommends www.intlmovers.com and/or www.movehub.com
Of course, at the end of the day, technology cannot replace the people, boxes, trucks, boats and planes, that are required to actual perform the door to door move – the technology now employed at least makes the process a little easier to plan.
