"We moved on a day when it poured nonstop, but GXL Moving movers brought floor runners, wrapped every piece in plastic, and worked carefully to keep both houses clean. They didn’t rush or complain – just adjusted and kept everything dry and damage-free!"

"Owen and Max were amazing! They were on time, super sweet, and helped me move up 4 flights of stairs. They really were the best. Will be hiring again for my next move!"

"Jayrod and Dominic were professional and great efficient workers. They introduced themselves and made sure they understood our needs, going over all the pieces that needed to be moved room by room and carefully completed the task. I am using them again to move more furniture this week."

"We had Patrick, Joseph and Kevin move us from a third story apt to a single level house. They were absolutely FANTASTIC! They called when they were supposed to call to confirm the move, called when they were arriving, and did an excellent job with the move! They were professional, personable, and great movers. I had a nightmare experience last time I moved and this time I did my due diligence with research. I'm so glad I did! My initial contact with Chris was also exceptional. Don't hire anyone else - hire this company!"

"Affordable Piano Movers & Storage moved an upright piano for me into a new home and up difficult stairs with a hair-pin turn. This was NOT an easy task and they did an excellent job, were on time, courteous and professional, and got the piano moved in gently to its new home on the second floor. Highly recommend hiring them if you need a piano moved!"

Moving questions, answered by experts

Using moving pods is generally cheaper than hiring a full-service moving company, primarily because you handle the packing and loading yourself, which eliminates labor costs. The cost savings are most significant for long-distance or cross-country moves; for local moves, hiring a moving company might be the more economical option. Renting and shipping moving pods can cost between $2,000 and $5,000, depending on factors like distance, the number of containers, and the weight of your items. Some services also charge a monthly rental fee of $75 to $200. In comparison, hiring a professional moving company for a long-distance move typically costs between $2,700 and $10,000.

It is best to book a moving company two to three months before your move-out date. This provides enough time to compare rates, organize your belongings, and find an available crew for your desired day and time. While you might find movers with only one or two weeks' notice, some companies require booking up to 90 days in advance.

Planning ahead is especially important if you're moving during the busy summer season when demand is highest. Summer weekends, in particular, book up quickly. Securing your movers well in advance helps you avoid the stress and potential extra fees of last-minute arrangements.

You should consider hiring professional movers for moves that seem too daunting, dangerous, or involve large, heavy objects. The larger your home and the longer the distance, the more likely you are to need professional help. A moving service can take the hardest tasks off your plate and reduce the risk of personal injury. However, if you are only moving a few light items, you can save money by moving on your own and renting a truck. Keep in mind that a DIY move requires significant planning and time. A hybrid option is also available, where you hire movers just to lift and transport heavy items to your vehicle.

Murphy beds can be relocated, but moving them requires disassembly and may involve potential wall repairs. Professional help is recommended to ensure safe removal and reinstallation, which may incur additional costs. Improper handling during the move can damage the bed’s mechanisms or structure, so careful planning and expertise are essential.

In most cases, you should get a full month’s notice for a move date. If you’re renting, your landlord or property management company is required to give the same amount of notice as your pay period length. So, if you pay rent each month, they will need to give you a month’s notice unless your leasing agreement says otherwise.
