Understanding a Shipper's Moving Needs

2008-08-06T13:03:00.002-05:00

Understanding the shipper's moving needs is first and foremost in order to have a safe, organized and successful move. It all starts with either visiting with the customer and viewing their shipment or asking the right questions over the phone.

It is always recommended to view the shipment. This ensures that we see and understand the specific needs the shipper has, such as: crating of specific pieces, exact packing needed, bulky items that need special equipment or manpower, size of the shipment, obstacles that may impede the crews progress, stairs, elevators, parking distance, long carrier, shuttle, and most importantly...finding out what the individual shipper is most concerned about or what is most precious to them.

Now it is not always possible for an on site estimate to be done. Due to timing, sometimes we must find out as much as we can over the phone. We always start off with the size of the home. This gives us a great indication of the amount of furniture, size of crew needed, and weight of shipment. We go further than that. We find out if they have what we call specialty items, such as: pool tables, trampoline, grandfather clock, large glass, marble, granite, plasma TVs, or antiques. These are all extremely important when it comes to estimating a job. We do this to know if we need crating for marble, glass, or granite. In addition, pool tables require 3rd party services to remove the slate, disassemble the table and then reassemble. Grandfather clocks require the pendulum and weights and require re-installation and resetting the clock at destination.

All these are extremely importing when estimating a move and understanding the specific needs each individual customer. We pride ourselves on understanding these specific needs in determining a fair and accurate estimate.

Our Largest Move to Date

2008-06-30T13:36:00.003-05:00

This winter we embarked on an office move that was very large. It was moving approximately 85,000 lbs. We made 12 trips over a 3 day period and spent the 4th day reassembling 61 offices, 3 conference rooms and a storage room and all the furniture inside. For the most part it was an extremely efficient and great move. The destination building was under construction still and the crews got stuck in the elevator twice. Once for about 1:45 minutes. Other than items like that, the shipper was extremely happy and has since referred us to several other customers.

July 4th Celebration

2008-06-25T14:14:00.002-05:00

This 4th of July we are going to Skiatook Lake. The water is awesome, the beer will be cold and the fire works are tremendous. Nothing in the back ground other than large trees and watching the fireworks explode over the calm water of the lake doubles the effect. I strongly suggest you check it out.

We also have started partnering with Coldwell Bankers. We have successfully accomplished several moves for them in the last 6 months.

All My Sons Moving & Storage of Tulsa, Inc., recently moved a family from Claremore, OK to Bixby, Ok. AMS packed, loaded and delivered my belongings with out a hiccup. The crew was extremely joyfull to be around. The move took a little bit longer than expected but that is probably because I didn't quite know where everything was going. However, I loved my crew and am very impressed with the work and professionalism of the young men. I will recommend you to everyone, thank you.

Summer Vacation

2008-06-05T12:07:00.001-05:00

It has been so long ago that my family and me have taken a vacation. This summer we plan on doing something simple. Since my boys are getting a little older (5 and 3), we plan on going camping at Lake Tenkillers. It is in south-eastern Oklahoma. The start of the Ozark mountains. It is beautiful. We plan on getting a cabin right on the lake and start fishing, hiking, cooking and just getting away from the normal grind. With the hours we put in on a weekly basis in the Moving Industry, it would be nice to devote a few days to nothing but my family. Can't wait.

My Favorite Tulsa Restaurant

2008-06-03T07:49:00.002-05:00

In Tulsa there are a lot of places to eat. But for me, one place stands out. That is Mahogony's. The place specializes in steak but they have much more. Let me start by telling you about my favorite dish and what I order every time. I start with the appetizer - grilled scallops. I should also add that the environment is classy and a bit dressy. They don't serve beer at all but do specialize in a variety of martini's with a specific focus on the "Chocolate Martini and the Sour Apple Martini", both are great. Then I move to the main course - 14 oz fillet topped with Alaskan king crab and a side of garlic mashed potatoes. Finish it off with a cheesecake topped with raspberry sauce.

This place is a bit pricey but well worth it.

Proper Packing for your Move

2008-05-15T10:52:00.002-05:00

The purpose of the blurb is to discuss why you should let professionals take care of your packing prior to the move. Below are a few reasons one should consider before enbarking upon this task yourself:

1) Packing is time consuming, especially if you are unsure of what you are doing
2) Professionals have the proper material for each occasion and circumstance, i.e. (variety of boxes for the right items, newsprint for tight protection of glass, china, and other breakables)
3) Professionals have the know-how for each specialty item. Example: Did you know that when packing simple dinner plates that they should be individually wrapped in newsprint and placed vertical in the bottom of a dishpack? A Dispack is a special box constructed for "dishes". Placing them vertical gives support not only the box as a whole but to each plate placed in the dishpack. If you place them horizontally in the dishpack and placed one on top of the other, and if the top dish breaks, it usually means that all of the them in the stack will break. Simple tips like this will ensure a happy, safe and stress free move.
4) Letting professionals handle the packing for you also reduces your personal liability in the event it is not handled correctly.

All these are positive reasons to let the professionals handle your packing needs; Saves your time, reduces your liability, and is done properly.

Relocation Reviews

2008-03-15T12:37:00.003-05:00

The folks at All My Sons Moving & Storage recently moved my mother. The moving crew moved her, on my behalf, to a local retirement community. My mother would never go for moving from her home. She recently has become ill. The plan was for me to take my mother out for a long lunch and have the crew come in and pick everything up and relocate her belongings to her new home at the retirement center. The kicker is, everything down to the remote control had to be in the exact location so that she would never be aware that she moved. The All My Sons crew moved her without flaw. Her relocation happened in about 3 hours and to this day she is aware of the fact that she was moved. I could not have asked for a more cooperative and kind group of people. If you need local or long distance moving, relocation, storage, movers, packing or moving services, I highly recommend the movers at All My Sons Moving & Storage of Tulsa.

Nasty Divorce and Move

2008-03-14T16:23:00.002-05:00

Unfortunately I recently divorced. It was not pretty. I called several moving and storage companies to give me a quote. I decided on All My Sons Moving & Storage of Tulsa because they made me feel comfortable. I was moving out of a home in which my ex currently resided. I had to obtain a court order and police escort during the move. The All My Sons crew were extremely careful, professional, and watchful for my protection. I immediately felt protected because one of the three movers stayed next to me or kept an eye on me the whole time. My husband became violent and was eventually removed. All My Sons went above and beyond in protecting me while ensuring the move was efficient. This is something I really appreciated. Not only did my move go much smoother than expected, I felt I had 3 bodyguards with me at all times. I could never imagine that a locally owned moving company would display that kind of courage. I can tell you now, I will never use anyone other than All My Sons again.

Office Move

2008-03-14T16:16:00.002-05:00

I am the office manager for a very large Accounting firm in Tulsa. We did our investigating of moving companies and decided on a larger more known company, but wished we had originally decided to go with All My Sons Moving & Storage of Tulsa. Well, needless to say, we went with the more known company and after the first day we decided to fire them. That same day I call All My Sons and they agreed to tackle this very large move which consists of about 116 offices, 4 conference rooms, 1 archive center, and several open cubical areas. All My Sons showed up the next day with 15 crew members. They worked tirelessly for 3 days. Our entire office staff and partners really got to know the crew and owner. We immediately trusted them with their display of knowledge and work ethic. As the story turns out, we were successfully moved by Monday morning with everything assembled, uncrated, and unpacked. Never have I felt more confident and justified in my decision. Thank you again for all that you did.

Recent Review

2008-03-14T16:08:00.002-05:00

Recently All My Sons Moving & Storage of Tulsa moved me and my family to our new home. It was a very stressful time. I had recently remarried and was moving my belongings from one location and my now wife's belonging from another location and all of it going to one home. The move was quite large. It took the moving crew 2 days. One day was spent packing and the other loading and delivering 3 full loads. I was amazed at the skill, professionalism and real care the crew displayed. After the first few minutes I immediately feel in love with the crew and felt they were part of the family. They packed both homes in one day and not one item was misplaced or broken. A few years ago, I lost a wallet with several hundred dollars in it. During the move the crew moved a large library bookcase and behind was a wallet. The crew immediately called it to my attention and returned it to me. This type of character is very seldom displayed by any company much less a moving company, but was very much displayed by the All My Sons crew. I could not be happier with the move, the office staff and especially the crew. I will definitely recommend them to anyone and would never use anyone else other then them again.

Thank you very much All My Sons Moving & Storage of Tulsa.
