Movers work in all kinds of locations: in homes, offices, warehouses, shops, etc. They may spend a lot of time driving trucks to transport items to new locations.
Moving is a physical job and takes a fair amount of strength and endurance. Movers spend most of their time on their feet lifting heavy objects. They do a lot of bending, crouching and walking. If they aren’t careful, movers can injure their backs from all this lifting.
Movers work in teams, usually with one person acting as the leader. They work under time constraints because clients usually want jobs done by a certain time.
They may work in the day, evening and on weekends. They have to meet their clients’ needs, and as most people work during the week, movers may have to work weekends to match their clients' schedules. They occasionally work very early mornings.
Those employed by household moving companies usually work a lot at the beginning of each month because more people tend to move at this time.
