How do you protect my furniture when it is being moved?The two keys to safely transporting your furniture is in the wrapping of the item and loading of the truck. The item should be wrapped in the room it occupies at the origin and then carried to the truck – not vice versa. Carrying it from the room and through the house is when the real possibility of damage can occur if it is not properly protected. Wooden furniture gets wrapped in moving blankets, upholstered furniture gets shrink-wrapped. Safely and correctly loading a moving truck is both an art and a science! Heavy items create a stable "base" and getting the rest of the items to snugly "fit" into the load so they will travel damage-free takes years of experience to master. Our drivers are some of the best in the business! Reverse the process at destination and your furniture should be in the same condition in your new home as I was in the old one!
-
Do you offer on-site estimates?Yes, especially recommended for larger moves with packing.
-
Do you offer packing services and materials?For a standard move you pack the boxes and we blanket and shrink-wrap the larger and fragile items. If you want us to pack any loose items we just charge for the time, plus any boxes and materials used.
-
Am I supposed to tip the movers?Most customers choose to tip 15%-20% to the crew which provides them with top-tier, professional, courteous service, but it is not required.
