If a new house is part of your New Year, you need to know about Bellhops. Often referred to as the “Uber of moving,” Bellhops is roughly half the cost of traditional moving companies. But their unique service isn’t for everyone. Here are 5 ways to know if this next-gen mover is right for you.
1. You’re working on a tight timeframe
Maybe you enjoy the soothing sounds of on-hold music, or waiting for a call back from a company. If not, you’ll appreciate Bellhops’ online instant booking feature. Rather than wait for a slow-turn moving quote, you simply plug in all your information on the website and receive a quote right on the spot.
2. You’re planning a small-scale move
If you live in a 5-bedroom house filled with precious antiques, Bellhops isn’t for you. (They can’t insure or move pianos, antique furniture, and other highly valuable items.) While they specialize in bungalow, condominium or apartment moves, you can still take advantage of serious cost savings. In the greater Chattanooga area, Bellhops offers labor-only moving help (you supply the truck) as well as full-service moves (they supply both the labor and the truck). You can choose the service based on your specific needs.

3. You appreciate clean-cut, energetic and optimistic movers
Every ‘bellhop’ must be currently enrolled in college and is hand-picked for their work ethic and optimism. Much like Uber, ‘bellhops’ claim the jobs they want when it works with their schedule. Bottom line, they want to be there and their enthusiasm shows.
4. You’re not moving but still need a helping hand
Doing a little redecorating for the New Year? Opt for the “In-Home Move” option for help rearranging furniture or “moving” items from the attic to the dump! Simply tell them how many bellhops you need, for how long and when and help is on its way.
5. You want highly rated movers
Bellhops has a 4.8 out of 5 rating on Google and 5 star ratings on Yelp. Customer comments includes things like, "I can't recommend them highly enough!", "They exceeded my expectations!" and "THIS IS THE BEST MOVING COMPANY EVER!!"
