Did you know that there have been four soup kitchens opened in and around Hilton Head within the last year? Your local professional movers are glad to know that there are people in Hilton Head who are so kind-hearted that they choose to spend their free time volunteering to feed the homeless, less-fortunate, and otherwise hungry individuals who frequent local soup kitchens. Campbell Church Soup Kitchen opened last week in Bluffton, and is the first in the city. Other local soup kitchen operations include Grateful Hearts Soup Kitchen at Holy Family Catholic Church, St. Andrews By-the-Sea, and St. James Baptist Church Community Soup Kitchen. Crowds as large as one hundred people have been accommodated which brings a smile to your Hilton Head movers’ faces!

Your local moving professionals want you to know that Hilton Head puts the “FUN” into fundraisers! Relay for Life, a local organization that regularly holds all-night benefit events, has truly reinvented the way people raise money for a good cause! “Relay Rocks” is the pre-party to beat all pre-parties when it comes to raising funds for the Hilton Head Relay for Life event which will be held at the Island Rec Center on May fourth. For a flat fee, attendees of “Relay Rocks” events enjoy appetizers AND cocktails. “Relay Rocks” events occur somewhat frequently, and have raised as much as $800 dollars per night. The next “Relay Rocks” event takes place tomorrow evening, and will kick off at 5:30 at Applebee’s. Your Hilton Head movers hope that all party-goers have a lot of fun, and more importantly, stay safe!

High tides and strong wind in October have caused quite a bit of beachfront erosion here in Hilton Head, and on Thursday the island experienced the highest tide of 2011 at a whopping nine feet high! If you have recently completed moving to Hilton Head, the recent news of beach land erosion may worry you a bit, but in actuality erosion is a normal part of being a barrier island. Just as sand moves away due to erosion, sand also gathers due to the natural ebb and flow of the elements. In other Hilton Head news, the area known as our island’s heel will soon undergo operations to replenish beach land. Roughly one million cubic yards of sand will be added to the beach as soon as this week; special equipment will be moved to the island’s heel soon so that work may begin. The project should be finished on or before February 15th, and will be very advantageous considering that erosion of the island’s heel causes 100 feet or so of sand to move away each year. Barrier island life sure is interesting, isn’t it?
 

The Avid Gardeners club of Hilton Head recently received two excellence awards from the National Garden Clubs Incorporated. The Avid Gardeners won first place in the “Pink Glove” category for the 2010 “Plant it Pink Garden,” which craftily utilizes pink planter pots along the borders of its Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon design. The garden has been cared for by members of the Avid Gardeners and was funded in part by donations from various Hilton Head businesses. Your Hilton Head moving professionals here were so moved by the “Plant it Pink Garden” that we’ve considered starting up a garden of our own; perhaps your relocation specialists here will win another award for Hilton Head!

The second of the two awards was presented to the Avid Gardeners for the “Korosi Vegetable and Herb Education Garden,” which was put together as a way for children to get involved with the Avid Gardener’s club and also to promote healthy eating habits among Hilton Head kids. Way to go, Avid Gardeners! Your Hilton Head professional movers can’t wait to see what kind of garden creations you all come up with next!

Of the many words that can be used to describe a moving company, words like professional, quick, polite, and affordable seem to be what people are looking for. At least people who are looking to hire movers! You may have little to know experience with hiring a professional moving company, but with review sites such as Yelp, you can still hire a good mover confidently when the time comes to relocate. Looking for a professional mover in Hilton Head? Does the following review describe your ideal mover?

I moved to Hilton Head Island a few months ago and All My Sons Moving & Storage handled my move. I have moved numerous times in my life and this was by far the easiest!! The crew was professional and courteous and a lot of fun! The protected my furniture and home and made the transition as smooth as possible! I just want to recommend this company to anyone moving in this area!!!

Moving back to school, many college students have a very small dorm space to look forward to, and your Hilton Head mover realizes that this can be disheartening. Though small living quarters can restrict just about everything that you do while you’re at home, there are ways to make the most out of a small space. Your Hilton Head mover here is rather impressed with the gentleman in the video below. With only 258 square feet in his Barcelona flat, Christian Schallert still manages to live large. I wouldn’t doubt it if his renovated apartment made most people with large homes extremely jealous of this seriously cool pad! Consider the following video of this truly unique small apartment inspiration for what you can do after moving in to your dorm or other small habitat!

One of the most important components of your moving game plan is the over all budget. We’re not all made of money, so naturally adhering to a budget is paramount when it comes to relocation to a new home. Your Hilton Head movers are full service, however; the more services rendered by your moving crew, the more expensive your cost will be when all is said and done. For this reason, people tend to prepare for moving day by packing boxes, disassembling furniture, and more so that the hired movers are able to finish the job as quickly as possible. Some items are more difficult than others to pack, and your Hilton Head movers are here to help you with some packing tips.

Most people have moved locally from one home to another with a professional moving company. Reputable moving professionals in Hilton Head are renowned for providing pain-free moving experiences because they know how to move quickly and carefully. Therefore; if you have moved with a truly professional company before, the odds are that you aren’t the least bit stressed when it comes time to move to a new home.

Moving locally is easy and is not too complicated of a process at all when moving with a good moving company. However; you may not always be moving locally; your next move may be to a new home in a new state! The cost for a long distance move is naturally more expensive than a local move. Furthermore; the price structure is also different than the standard hourly rate cost associated with local moves within Hilton Head. For this reason, even if you know a good moving company who you intend to hire for your long distance relocation needs, you should plan your move much more carefully so that you know what to expect regarding cost and otherwise. Your professional movers here in Hilton Head are expert long distance movers. To make your long distance transition as easy as possible, we offer complimentary in-home estimator appointments so that you can have ever aspect of your upcoming cross country move laid out in plain English for you! Your moving pro here highly suggests that you schedule an in-home estimate if you plan to move in the near future, especially if you are moving long distance!

A very serious cluster of reports has come to the surface recently, and as it rouses much concern from your Hilton Head mover here, I feel it is my duty to discuss the risks which most people virtually never consider despite the direct contact each of us likely has to these risks each day. The very serious risks are none other than carcinogens, and these carcinogens can come into contact with each of us in more ways than you could possibly imagine; nobody is safe.

It has long been suggested that cancer-causing carcinogens can infiltrate the body using your own cell phone as a gateway. However; studies have shown more and more carcinogenic culprits which move the level of concern higher than it has ever been for many concerned citizens. Carcinogens can occur from cigarette smoke, –of course– alcoholic beverages, and even gasoline vapors. Surprisingly they can also occur from peanut butter, dry cleaning products, and even working a night shift job! One would not be the least bit foolish to have his or her household items moved and stored in a decontamination facility so that worries of carcinogenic risk factors in the home may rest.

It is with immense pride and relief that I report another recent finding: You’re in good hands with us because this South Carolina moving company in Hilton Head has undergone studies suggesting that our professional relocation services show low to non-existent carcinogenic risk as opposed to other Hilton Head moving companies (which will remain un-named). As licensed and insured moving professionals, we take pride in knowing our shippers needn’t worry about a transitional experience with us on the job, and it feels great to further push the safety envelope by offering carcinogen-free, full service professional moving services for all!
