It seems like everyone is using artificial intelligence for what were previously essential in-person services these days. From ordering at a drive-thru to getting in touch with a customer representative, you have to navigate the AI first. Most of these interactions don't quite work as well as intended too.
So...
Opting for AI moving estimates may seem like a good alternative to the time and effort of being present for an in-person consultation. However, there are many benefits to in-home moving estimates over getting an AI consultation.
AI Can't Clue You into the Vibe of the Company
It's impossible to get a feel for the kind of people who will be working with you, packing your belongings, and relocating them to another home through AI video assessments. An in-person consultation just gives you more information about the type of people the long-distance mover hires and how those people treat customers.
You May Have Trouble Getting Answers to Questions with AI
An AI chatbot or visual estimator can only give you information based on the material it was trained on. If you have a question it doesn't have an answer to, the AI will just tell you to ask a member of their customer service department anyway. However, the customer service reps might not have the real world moving experience needed to answer your questions.
AI Might Not Think to Ask About Different Areas of the Property
Your residential movers will happily pack and transport all of your belongings, but they'll still need to get an accurate estimate for everything. This means getting video footage of sheds, garages, basements, and even outside furniture and seasonal items.
An in-person moving estimator have a better chance of seeing the outside storage and other items, and asking about them during a consultation.
It's Hard to Estimate Weights of Different Materials Through a Video
Unless the move estimator is there to physically attempt to lift certain items, it's going to be hard to get an idea of what some items weigh. Your in-person move estimator can check items, like dressers, countertops, and furniture. This is vital for getting an accurate quote for your long-distance move.
