I Thought That I'd Hate This Move

By Laura Hawn


I have always hated moving. As a kid, we'd barely stay in one place for over a year. Just when I might start to think "Yeah, this is my home," mom or dad would get another job somewhere else or we'd have to move to stay in the changing school district. It got to be so bad that I would start leaving most of my stuff in boxes just to save time for the next move that I knew would come.

I'd only unpack things I needed, like blankets, clothing, and a couple select toys. As I got older, I still hated moves. I hated moving to my college dormitory, I hated moving to my first flat with my roommate, and I hated moving back home when mom became sick.

There seems to be a family tradition; in every single move, we always end up losing something. It could have been a toy, a tape, a DVD, a blanket, a shirt anything; but at least one thing was always lost in the move. That was one more reason I never liked the moves. The last time we moved as a family, we moved to New York City, and mom searched for "NYC movers." That was years ago, and we were only in New York for a couple of months.

Now, I find myself having to move back to NYC, for work. So I have gone online and looked up "movers NYC." Pages and pages of results popped up, and, not really expecting that I would like this move one way or the other, picked the first company that jumped out at me; Ben Hur Moving & Storage.

I clicked on it, and the page that turned up was really easy to utilize. I got a quote online, and booked an appointment for them to come out, expecting them to be three or four hours late, as has always occurred with movers in my experiences. To my great surprise, they arrived early, helped me finish packing the boxes, and got everything on the truck pretty fast. When I got to my new house and unpacked my stuff, I found, again to my great surprise, that nothing whatsoever was missing! This was the first time this had ever happened, and I know thatmovers played a very sizeable part in that. So, I ended up not hating this last move, all because of the great movers I hired.
