Straight Answers to Your Moving Questions
What does a local move cost?
It depends on the size of your home, the crew needed, and any specialty items. Most studio and one-bedroom moves start around $350–$600. Two-bedroom homes usually land between $600 and $1,200 depending on furniture volume, stairs, and parking access. Quotes are free and include all standard equipment, furniture pads, and shrink wrap.
How far ahead should I book?
Two to four weeks is comfortable, especially from May through September and around the first and last days of the month. We do keep same-week and sometimes same-day availability open when the schedule allows.
Are my belongings insured?
Every move includes basic valuation coverage at no extra charge, and we carry up to $1 million in cargo insurance. For art, antiques, or electronics we offer full-value protection that covers replacement cost, and we document condition before and after.
What can't you move?
Hazardous materials are out: propane tanks, gasoline, paint, solvents, ammunition, fireworks, and perishable food. Live plants can't travel on long-distance moves due to agricultural rules. Keep documents, jewelry, and medication in your own car. We go over the full list during the quote.
How long does a move take?
A studio or one-bedroom usually runs two to four hours. A two-bedroom averages four to six. Three bedrooms and up can take six to ten hours depending on furniture, specialty items, and the distance between addresses. You get a time estimate with your quote.
What happens if something is damaged?
Report it within 72 hours. We review the claim, assess the damage, and resolve it through repair, replacement, or compensation based on your coverage. Most claims close within five to ten business days.
