Try and think, what was the last task you attempted without the aid of your smartphone or tablet? Whether you cooked a new recipe, figured out how to remove a stubborn stain from an article of clothing, or checked movie showtimes before heading to the cinema, chances are you consulted your handheld device for help and guidance. Digital technology has simplified our lives in so many ways and touches nearly every level of goods and services we consume today—even moving.
Technology has streamlined the moving process in recent years and has given customers a host of new ways to initiate and manage a local or long-distance move all from the palm of their hand. From obtaining a moving estimate to meeting the moving crew, technology is making moving easier. Learn how Atlas® movers innovate the moving process!
