For the sake of good ol’ Mother Nature, Colorado lawmakers are currently contemplating a mandate which would require all newly constructed buildings to be equipped with low-flow toilets. The law would also apply to bathrooms undergoing renovations. There is speculation over whether passing the law would be an apt move considering that it would apply to Colorado residents’ own homes; however, many people and organizations are already jumping onboard the proposal. Your Denver residential movers are definitely all for environmentally-friendly new laws, and will be happy to provide removal services for future toilet replacement projects. Keep it green, Colorado!
What do you do when drivers just don’t seem to get the hint that reckless driving is not appreciated in your neighborhood? Do you hire professional movers to relocate to a safer neighborhood? Or do you take matters into your own hands? Well, if you are a resident of Larimer County, you may simply join in a neighborhood effort to construct and maintain man-made speed bumps to combat the issue. That is what several residents living along Raw-Hide Flats Road settled on, and for years their six speed bumps which they made with dirt managed to control the speeding issue which mounted-speed-limit signs as well as home-made “slow down” signs failed to accomplish previously. Your Denver movers don’t suggest going the route of the aforementioned residents as local law enforcement has recently gotten involved which has proven less than favorable for all involved.

For those who attended, we hope you had a fun and inspirational time. For those who missed today’s free event, no sweat!

There is something in Denver for almost everybody; and in Colorado in general. Particularly though, Denver is known to be a top destination for single women on the move. As any local knows, Denver is most fitting for those with an active lifestyle; year-round mountain sports, ideal weather in the summer, and a vivacious nightlife scene are among the many appealing elements which beckon people to move to Denver. And particularly for single men, considering that Colorado is currently the most physically fit state in the nation, attractive single ladies can be added to that list of Denver-living perks! Go Figure.
Moving boxes can be your best friend while you prepare to relocate to a new home. However, there are situations when plastic tubs are a better option than cardboard boxes. For transporting items which will be unpacked, cardboard boxes cannot be beat; cheap material that gets the job done. However; for items which you will keep packed away –maybe seasonal clothing or Christmas decorations– cardboard boxes can be an invitation for small pests.
Your Colorado moving specialists here in Denver have had many experiences with moving boxes which have turned out less than pleasant due to the unwelcome guests for which cardboard boxes often provide shelter. To avoid discovery of pest colonies in your home, sticking to seal-able tubs for any long term storage needs in your home is your best bet.
“Because anyone with a truck and a website can claim to be a mover, our industry is plagued by con artists who don’t adhere to standards for honesty and ethical conduct…”
This sad-but-true statement from American Moving and Storage Association president, Linda Bauer Darr, is a harsh reality about which your Denver area movers educate would-be victims of rogue movers on a daily basis. What is a “rogue mover”? If you have ever moved and have no clue what a rogue mover is, you are very fortunate! A rogue mover is a relocation service provider that operates dishonestly and at the expense of its customers. Disreputable movers often quote a low attractive price for a move over the phone, only to refuse to unload their moving truck at a customer’s destination until they pay a price much higher than what was originally estimated. With your furniture literally held hostage, you have little choice other than paying the inflated price that the dishonest mover demands simply because you didn’t do your research before hiring the company. Professional moving companies try their best to inform people who are planning to move of the difference between the two types of relocation service providers, but we cannot reach everybody. If you have not yet moved, you can easily avoid a moving day disaster by simply researching a mover before you hire. Organizations such as the Better Business Bureau and AMSA are devoted to protecting consumers from encounters with rogue movers. Don’t become a statistic!
