Moving Industry Conference: moving a little ‘slower’ than usual

The housing bust, mortgage crisis and financial meltdown have affected everyone.  In this newstimes.com article about the International Association of Movers Conference in Florida moving companies discuss their battle through the slow times yet are optimistic about the future.  The big stat that’s is the 30% decline in year-over-year decline in non-corporate relocation.  That’s a pretty big hit.  Their are few positive signs beginning to appear for the housing market and a turn around would greatly improve their outlook even further.

What this means for individuals and families moving is that not only is there a greater likelihood that movers will be available on your preferred moving dates and you may also have an advantage to negotiate bigger discounts or included services.
