Making Moving Easier With CableMover – With Home Depot Giveaway

| Fri 08-05-11

CableMover Logo

I’ve never moved and had to worry about moving cable television. From what I understand from a number of friends and acquaintances it can be quite a hassle. We moved from one part of a city to another once and had to do it on foot and by hand, we had no car and nobody willing to help. Hopefully moving utilities isn’t half the pain that moving the furniture was… Summertime is the prime time for families to move, as they don’t want the kids to miss school. I can’t imagine moving in this heat and getting to my new house to find there was no television or internet to relax and unwind with.

CableMover is a complimentary service provided by the cable industry to help consumers make the move of their cable tv, internet and phone services from one house to another within the United States a smooth one. Users need to supply some information in an online form and it will start the process of scheduling an appointment for their services to be connected at their new home. The site also offers resources including help changing your address, moving tips, and getting movers quotes – all information to help you make sure that important things don’t fall through the cracks and to help incorporate technology into your new home. There’s even tips and advice on moving from HGTV’s Lisa Laporta and tech jpournalist David Gregg.

Here’s a brief video clip from Lifetime’s The Balancing Act with David sharing some moving tips and information on CableMover.

    My worst moving experience is the movers backing a truck up into one of the pillars on the house. What a nightmare!

    Ha! I moved just last October. And moving day came when my husband was working out of state! I moved everything I could by myself, then called in some manly men to move a couple of big pieces of furniture. It was a mess! And I was exhausted for a week!

    We moved from IL to WV and I had to drive the truck, towing a vehicle, through the mountains! YUCK!

    It’s my worst and my best–when I was pregnant with my daughter I was put on full bedrest due to health issues and we were moving from our college town to the settle down town. My mother in law and grandmother in law had to clean the whole house to make sure we got the deposit back on our apartment. All I could do was watch because everytime I tried to do anything I was reminded of doctor’s orders.

    My worst moving memory has to be when I moved into my first house 4 weeks after my first child was born. We quickly discovered that there were mud wasp nests no virtually every window of my new home. :-(
