Sean and his team are amazing. They were very efficient and hard working. They made my move stress free! It was a pleasure working with them. They even took a sofa to the dump for me. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing moving services.

Moving questions, answered by experts

Hiring professional movers is usually worth the investment. These moving pros have the expertise and experience to get the job done quickly and safely, saving you time and potentially avoiding damage to your belongings. Professionals are especially a good idea if you’re moving long distances or large, bulky items, like furniture, pianos, or vehicles. Pros will also know when you need moving permits based on where you live and whether or not the moving truck will block traffic.

A house may need to be moved due to land redevelopment, to avoid demolition, to preserve a historic structure, to adapt to zoning changes, or to relocate to a safer or more desirable location because of climate change.

Movers know the best way to pack different items to protect them during a move and make the most of the space in a moving truck. You can pack your belongings to save money, but there’s a higher risk of damage.

Moving brokers are required to advertise that they aren’t moving carriers. While it might be buried in the text of the ad, they need to say somewhere that they aren’t the provider of moving services. Moving brokers should also display their Department Of Transportation number in their advertising. Read all of the advertising materials carefully and ensure your moving company is registered.

Hiring movers to help during a move can take a load off your shoulders, but you might still want to cut costs where possible. A few ways to help save money while hiring movers include:

Moving during the off-season (typically from October through April) when rates tend to be lower
Move during the week to avoid any weekend surcharges
Seek out moving supplies from friends and family—they might have all the tools you need!
Store boxes and bubble wrap for the next big move if you move frequently
Use towels and clothes to wrap breakables
Use suitcases to pack belongings
Ask the moving company about special coupons or deals
