Long Distance Moving: How Do Van Lines Work?

Moving over long distances can be a complex and demanding process. Luckily, van lines streamline this process, and Corrigan Moving Systems, one of the best agents for United Van Lines, is ready to make your long-distance move a breeze. Having a good idea how top van lines work will yield a deeper peace of mind for your imminent long distance move.

How Van Lines Simplify Long-Distance Moves

Van lines are an essential component of the modern relocation industry, offering comprehensive solutions for long-distance moves. The core principle behind van lines is collaboration. These networks bring together a variety of independent, local moving companies, each giving its expertise to create a smooth and efficient move for customers. Van lines are made up of hundreds of privately owned, independent moving companies. Van lines establish standards and criteria that all of those local moving companies, also referred to as "local agents", must meet in order to keep their status with the van line.

If you are moving locally in Auburn Hills or within the state of Michigan, then your move will be completely handled by your local agent. If you are moving to another state, then van lines establish the rules related to that interstate move. This includes fees, available dates, and timeframes. Local agents, like Corrigan Moving Systems, adhere to all rules and standards established by the van line for all interstate moves.

1. Consultation and Planning

Your interaction with a van line begins with a thorough consultation. Here at Corrigan Moving Systems, our pros work closely with you to grasp your specific needs, preferences, and the timeline of your move. This important information forms the basis of a customized moving plan, carefully tailored to your requirements. Your sales rep and move coordinator are employed by Corrigan Moving Systems, but they will abide by and follow policies set by United Van Lines for interstate moves.

2. Packing and Loading

Once the plan is in position, our highly skilled crew takes over. They meticulously pack your belongings using high-quality packing materials to ensure they reach your new home in pristine condition. Packing is an art, and our experienced movers handle it with exceptional care and precision. Loading is also a vital step, and our professionals excel at protecting your belongings for the journey ahead.

3. Transportation

Transportation is where the strength of van lines becomes clear. With a vast fleet of properly maintained trucks and a network of agents strategically located across the country, we can easily transport your belongings to your new home, regardless of the distance. Punctuality and the security of your belongings are our top priorities. Your driver could work for Corrigan Moving Systems or for a different United Van Lines agent.
