NEW YORK, Nov. 11 /PRNewswire/ -- When it comes time to pack up and move to a new home, the experience can be mixed with many emotions ranging from excitement to dread at the prospect. To help consumers manage the process more effectively and take some of the stress out of moving, Relocation.com today launched its totally redesigned Web site for helping consumers connect with local moving professionals and other related services.
The site is a one-stop shop to help consumers answer their questions with expert advice about everything including costs, planning, packing, international moves, vehicle transport, self-service moving and much more. The site's printable planner and checklist helps consumers begin the process and get to their new residences with peace of mind.
Relocation.com assists with all the services needed to handle the life-changing event of moving with additional information about real estate (sales and rentals), mortgages, insurance, home improvement, storage and utilities.
The new Relocation.com Bill of Rights gives consumers added assurance in the quality of service they can expect and the safety and protection of their personal items. All Relocation.com professionals agree to uphold these rights.
"Moving can be a daunting task. By using Relocation.com to plan their moves and select professionals, consumers have the confidence of being well informed about the moving process and the security of knowing that they are working with quality service providers," said Sharon (Ron) Asher, chairman and founder of Relocation.com.
