FORGOING FRILLS

Get the most out of
your moving dollar

MORE CANADIAN families
move during the months of July,
August and September than the
combined total for the remaining
nine months of the year; for many
of them, the prime concern is how
to get the most out of their moving
dollar.

As a matter of fact, some 35 per
cent of all moving families will

service before closing the ledger on
the costs of your move.

Another way to save money is to
consider a container service of-
fered by some van lines if you need
to store your goods while you are
painting your new home, taking a
vacation or looking for a new
place to live. Under certain condi-
tions, your furniture can stay in

the container and, since handling
of your furniture is reduced, you
may realize some important sav-
ings, particularly on short-term
storage costs.

Finally, discounts and yarious
incentives offered by competing
movers can go a long way toward
reducing the cost of your move.

forgo the frills offered by profes-
sional moving companies in favor
of the do-it-yourself route.

If your family is moving this
summer, you may be comparing
the cost of moving yourself to that
of a professional mover. With the
foresight to add up the hidden
costs of a do-it-yourself move, you
may be able to spare yourself some
costly hindsight.

If you opt for a no-frills move, .
make sure that you have accurately
assessed your skill, stamina and
physical condition as well as that
of your assistants. Make sure also
that you understand the respon- a
sibilities you face with a rented : he We do bation
