Top 10 Moving Company Trucks:
For most companies, their logo and choice of branding is what makes them stand out from the rest of the crowd. With moving companies, it's just a little bit different. While branding makes the company identifiable from its competitors, an express moving company's choice of storage and transportation is just as important. Below are images of the top ten moving company trucks:

USA Politicians Express Moving Concerns for Wildlife?
I came across this Craigslist advertisement (or plug) in the political discussion section of the forum. The plug was titled:
"Eco-Lovers of the USA Express Moving Concerns for Wildlife"
I'm not much of an environmentalist, and to be honest I didn't even mean to click on the link. I was much more interested in the one above it titled "Aliens Give Barack Obama Foreign Advice" but my finger slipped and I found myself in the midst of a tree-hugging article. Here's a small quip from the post on Craigslist:
"Many thought with the Bush regime coming to an end, he could do no more harm to damage the United States or the world. We thought that with him at the Olympic Games kicking back and taking time off, the people pulling his strings would too. Yet as we all know, nothing ever goes as planned, and with the ever looming demise of the Republican controlled government they seem to have taken to the strategy of doing as much damage as possible in the shortest amount of time. Playground tactics, but most effective. This time it’s not anti-war protesters that are angry; it’s the environmentalists of the USA that have declared Bush’s latest action an outcry. Bush and his administration have decided that they want agencies to make up their minds about wither human expansion such as bridges, tunnels, buildings, and dams have a negative and/or harmful impact on the animal population. But what does this mean and what are the reasons behind this strange necessity to completely change the Endanger Species act which hasn’t seen a single edit since 1986? "
There was a link at the bottom which took me to the RSS feed page of an Author named Fred McCoy. Most of his ramblings spanned from the political to the mundane, but they were always on point and interesting enough that I subscribed to his feed and get updates whenever he posts a new article anywhere.
I digress.
The article explains that tree-huggers of the USA Express Moving worries for wildlife because of our [sarcasm]excellent politicians[/sarcasm]. Honestly, I think that getting rid of the endangered species act, or even modifying it so that businesses and federal agencies have to go through the proper channels such as scientists before starting a project, is a bad idea. It pretty much means that any company, at any time, can destroy any section of land for a new mini-mall owned by a Chinese company. That is definitely not what we need in America right now.

[ An Idiot’s Guide ] – Choosing a Moving Company
First and foremost, you should make sure that you choose your moving company in advance, after all you’re going to spend not only a lot of time talking to them about their services, but you will also have to make sure to plan and coordinate everything so that nothing. I repeat NOTHING, screws up/gets lost/breaks. You should pick your moving company at one month –two months ahead of time to avoid any negative and unnecessary events. This will also give you leeway room in case your moving company cancels or you find a more reliable one.
It seems to be the normal trend that moving companies are usually more busy at the end of the month, as well as Fridays and weekends. As a result, they may charge extra for these days(Much like hotels down by the beach where you just might be moving to). When you know which company you will be moving with, call and ask them when their less busy days are. The more flexible you are, the less the cost will be.
Also, let the movers know what you are expecting and ask plenty of questions. To help you, here are some thoughts you might want to keep in mind before contacting a moving company in order to get the best and most accurate quotes:
-What are your preferred moving days?
-How far is the move?
-Is it local, long-distance, or international?
-How much assistance will you need with packing?
-Will the moving company be expected to pack everything or will that be left up to you?
-Let the Moving company know if they are moving fragile or valuable items.
-How much stuff does the moving company have to transport?
-How much insurance will be needed?
It’s been found that many citizens of the USA express moving concerns when it’s finally time to leave their homes. Having to choose a moving company only adds to the stress. A good way to find the best moving company is by word-of-mouth and recommendation from others. Also, many reputable companies are available online. All of their information is available on their website. Remember, don't be afraid to ask if you have questions. With this advice, your move should be enjoyable and much less stressful.
