Move Discounts for Veterans

At Liedkie Moving & Storage, we are always looking for ways to help our movers in Albany to keep their total move costs down. We know that moving your lifelong belongings long distance can really add up. Last week we shared about our Move Discounts for Seniors 50 + moving long distance. We also provide Veteran discounts on long distance moves for our movers in Albany.

 

Veterans’ Program

Liedkie Moving & Storage participates in the Arpin Van Lines’ Veterans’ Program. The Veterans’ Program is designed specifically for those who proudly served our country. This program provides for complimentary products and services, as well as special discounts on long distance moving for movers in Albany including:

  • A reduction of 20% off of any full valuation declaration.
  • A mini packing kit of up to 15 various size packing boxes (not to include mattress boxes), plus a roll of tape.
  • Guaranteed pickup and delivery dates—subject to a 4,000 pound minimum shipment weight.
  • If storage-in-transit needed, 1 free day for every 2 days paid (excluding the first-day charges)

In order to qualify for the Veterans’ Program, one member of the customer’s household must have served in a branch of the U.S. Military or the U.S. National Guard. A retired Military ID, Form DD214, or a membership card in a military veterans’ organization must be furnished as verification and provided to the agent prior to the signing of an Order for Service.

Taking advantage of our Veteran’s Program if it applies to you, can save you a substantial amount on your long distance moving costs. We are proud of and look forward to serving our US Veterans. If you have any questions or are ready to take advantage of our Veteran’s Program, simple contact us.

Move Service Discounts For Seniors

Moving can be expensive. You want to make sure that you are keeping your costs down as you go through the process.  One of the ways we at Liedkie Moving & Storage  suggest our Albany moving customers can  lower their move costs is by lightening the move load and donating and recycling as much as possible before move day. We featured many ideas and resources for donating and recycling in our April blogs in support of National Recycling Month.

There are other ways to save. Did you know that there are often move service discounts offered to special groups? As your affordable Albany moving company, Liedkie Moving & Storage offers money saving discounts to Seniors who are moving long distance. These savings can really add up and get you where you need to be with your move budget.

Seniors 50+ Program

As a proud Arpin agent, Liedkie Moving & Storage is pleased to offer the Arpin 50+ Program for our Albany movers over the age of 50 who are planning a long distance move. Services include:

  • Complimentary Mini Packing Container Kit-Upon request, we will provide you with a “mini” packing container kit at no charge to you. This kit consists of up to 12 various size packing boxes (not to include mattress boxes) plus a roll of tape.
  • Complimentary “First Night” Unpacking Service-We provide you with complimentary “First Night” unpacking at no cost to include: 3 containers of any size (except mattress cartons), 1 dresser mirror carton, and complete unpacking and set up of 2 beds of any size (excludes waterbeds and canopies).
  • Discounted Valuation Protection-Protecting your possessions is a critical part of your move and the chief responsibility of a respectable Albany moving company. Our 50+ Program also provides a thirty percent (30%) discount off of our Full Replacement Value Protection Coverage (with zero deductible). This represents a considerable savings to our 50+ Program participants.

*Proof of age of one household member moving is required. 

If you have any other questions about our 50+ Program or are ready to take advantage of it, simple contact us. We would love to hear from you.

Cool Moving Facts for a Hot July

Here we are in the middle of the warmest month of the year. It’s a hot July. Movers in the Albany Capital Region are looking for ways to keep cool and calm as they prepare and carry out their Albany Capital Region move. We here at Liedkie Moving & Storage do not have control of the weather, but we would like to offer a time out from the heat of the day to offer some COOL moving facts with our movers in  the Albany Capital Region.

Fact #1-The moving industry took hold in the 1800s surrounding the expansion of the railroad system. The first specialized horse drawn moving wagons were introduced at the turn of the century.

Fact #2-Hiring a local moving company to handle your move can cost less than renting a truck and moving yourself.  At Liedkie Moving & Storage, we cover labor, packing, insurance and transportation including gas and tolls. It really adds up when you cover the entire moving process yourself.

Fact #3-According to the US Census Bureau, the average American will move 11.7 times over a life-time. We are proud to report that many of our customers choose us again and again for their moving and storage needs.

Fact #4-43 million Americans move each year. That is the same number of people that enjoyed camping in 2011. That is a lot of movers and campers! Are you camping this summer to stay cool?

Fact #5 According to the Employee Relocation Council, moving is the third most stressful life event following death of a loved one and divorce. At Liedkie Moving & Storage, we feel that it doesn’t have to be. We pride ourselves on delivering a stress-free move.

Fact #6-Ok, this one is not a moving fact but we just had to include it! In 1984 President Reagan announced July as National Ice Cream Month and the third Sunday of July as National Ice Cream Day. Movers in the Albany Capital Region, why not take a cool break from all things moving and enjoy an ice cream?

At Liedkie Moving & Storage we are dedicated to providing all the support and resources our movers in the Albany Capital Region need to ensure you keep your cool during your move. Enjoy that ice cream!
