Considerations when choosing a Kansas City moving company

Moving to Kansas City doesn't have to be a stressful experience. Before starting your search, make sure you've gone through the following:

  1. Must-haves, and what you'll be willing to compromise on. You may need to give up certain amenities to live in your favorite neighborhood, or otherwise look for a smaller layout or a different apartment type.

  2. Your search horizon. The ideal time to start searching is between 1-2 months before your planned move-in date. However, don't be stressed if you only have a couple weeks to go; a surpising amount of rental inventory is usually available for immediate move-in.

  3. Your favorite neighborhoods. We've put together a curated list below of some of the more popular areas to get you started on where to live - whether you're moving by yourself or with a family, looking for a residential area or one in the middle of the action.

  4. Documents you'll need when applying for an apartment. These will vary depending on the landlord, but most require verification of employment and income, your credit report, and references from previous landlords.

  5. Whether you'd like to live alone or with roommates. Roommates can mean considerable cost savings upwards of 50%-60% depending on the amount of people

Tips for moving to or within Kansas City

Facts about Kansas City

Kansas City is affectionately known as the “Paris of the Plains” because it has more boulevards than any other city in the world, besides Paris. Kansas City is also home to Country Club Plaza, which is considered to be the first suburban shopping center in the United States. The tallest building in the city is a half-sized replica of La Giralda, a cathedral bell tower that used to be a minaret.

 

Kansas City is also famous for being the place where Charlie Parker played his first paying gig at the Country Club Plaza. The city had a reputation for being rowdy and rebellious in the 1920s, and there were a number of jazz clubs in the area, which is something Kansas City is still known for. You’ll also be able to find a comfortable bed once you arrive since Kansas City is home to Temple Slug, the oldest waterbed store in the world.
