Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions about packing, moving, storage, or moving day? We've answered some of the questions our customers ask most often.

Yes. Our team can handle everything from packing a few fragile items to packing your entire home. We can carefully organize boxes, protect furniture, and prepare your belongings for transportation.

Not necessarily. We can provide a range of packing materials, including moving boxes, protective wrap, packing paper, tape, and other supplies. If you prefer to pack yourself, we can also help you determine how many supplies you'll need.

Furniture can be protected using moving blankets, protective wrapping, padding, and careful handling. Larger pieces may also be disassembled when appropriate and safely reassembled at the destination.

We can assist with carefully packing and transporting many fragile household items. During your estimate, let us know about particularly delicate or valuable belongings so we can discuss the appropriate handling and packing requirements.

Storage options can be useful when your move-out and move-in dates don't line up. Contact our team to discuss your storage requirements and available options.

Keep important documents, medications, valuables, chargers, toiletries, and a change of clothes with you. Make sure pathways are clear and that pets and children are safely out of the way while the moving team is working.
