Attempting to move on your own, or even getting help from your friends or family, may seem like a great way to save money on your relocation. The fact is, however, that is not typically the case. Trying to move on your own will almost always end up taking you far longer than it would take if you had professional interstate movers there to help you. On top of that, moving on your own can result in some pretty significant injuries due to lifting heavy items, dropping something on your foot or otherwise getting hurt.
