"Moving is a difficult, often stressful time, and I was so pleased with the movers and  this moving company!    I will definitely use them again, and based on my experience am happy to recommend them to friends and colleagues.
Making the arrangements for the move by phone was quick and easy.  They quoted me very accurately for the move, which i appreciated - no last-minute unexpected higher costs at all.
The movers arrived within 10 minutes of the scheduled time.   i was grateful they agreed to 9 am and not their 8:30 am usual time, so i had a little more time for morning preparations.
The movers were friendly, but also very professional and knowledgeable about the move.  They were the ideal combination of unobtrusive, but offered advice and reassurance when needed.   They were also extremely fast and efficient - much quicker than i anticipated, and had I been better prepared and had fewer personal items, the move would not have taken 4 hours. 
We had expected to have to hoist my sofa from the 3rd floor windows to the ground.   This would have been $100 extra, which i agreed upon during the booking process.   The movers determined onsite that they could move the sofa down the stairwell and not charge me the $100, which i also appreciated.
At the new place they checked with  me on where i wanted each furniture item, so they could set it up for me properly the first time, and were patient about moving boxes that were better suited in a different area, or the storage unit.
i was unsure how and how much to tip them, and so asked them in general what happened, and they were very gracious in how they responded, leaving it up to me, and appreciative of the cash tips received.

"Utilizing All Service Moving for the move was a very positive experience. They had good communication, answering several questions prior to the move and did a final confirmation just prior to the move date. As for the physical move itself, Jose, Abraham, and Alberto were polite, diligent, and careful moving the many items, and managed to complete the move more quickly than anticipated."

"I hired them for a move from California to Montana in January 2021. I was very skeptical about finding a trustworthy moving company but Best Quality did an awesome job! All the staff was professional and did a great job! They stuck to the price we agreed upon, no games trying to get more. I had a great experience with them and would recommend them."

"Francisco and the team were absolutely fantastic. Moving out, everything was packed securely and quickly. Moving in was so fast, and everything was unwrapped and set up exactly how we needed. Will request them for the next move!"

"These guys are the best movers I have ever dealt with. They are professional, responsive and they really do care about moving you with the least amount of stress. They moved a 3 story Laboratory over 2 days for me. 4 truckloads of very sensitive lab analyzers and not one scratch or dent. From the office personnel to the moving crew these guys are without a doubt the best. If you need to move anything I would highly recommend Hauling Moses !! I will use them for any future moves without hesitation."

"I had a great experience, all my items were moved swiftly and carefully. I had to coordinate dropping off and picking up a few pieces of furniture at multiple locations, and Simon and Alberto made sure everything went smoothly."

Moving questions, answered by experts

It costs an average of $4,565 to move out of state, but prices vary significantly based on the specifics of your move. Your total price tag will depend on the load size and the distance you’re traveling, but you can expect it to cost significantly more to move out of state than locally.

Start by removing any obstacles in the moving path, such as side tables, lamps, or other furniture. If your couch has legs, unscrew them. Measure the couch and the stairway to ensure you have enough room; if it seems unlikely, examine the shape and size of the couch and decide whether it might fit better up the stairway and through doorways on its side, held diagonally, or moved in an upright position.

Consider putting the sofa on a dolly to go up the stairs. It should be able to fit upright on a standard dolly with wheels. You’ll still need to lift the dolly—with the couch on it—up the stairs, but it will reduce the physical strain. The person holding the dolly should pull the couch up, while the helper should be on the other side, keeping the couch secure and steady.

If you don’t have a dolly, the person in front should lift the couch slightly higher than the person in the back to create more stability. The person in the back should also be the stronger mover, as most of the weight will be distributed there.

It is not difficult to drive a U-Haul truck or other rental truck, and you don’t need an additional license on top of a standard government-issued driver’s license in most cases. However, those unaccustomed to driving large vehicles may have difficulty adjusting to the maneuverability of a rental truck. Parking can also be more difficult.

The amount you need to save depends on the cost of living in your new home country, your visa requirements, and the cost of health care and insurance.

The average cost to hire professional movers is approximately $1,700, but the total price can range from as low as $920 to over $12,000 depending on the move's complexity. For local moves, typically under 100 miles, costs generally fall between $920 and $2,530. Long-distance moves are more expensive, with prices ranging from $2,700 to $10,000 or more.

Several key factors influence the final cost:

  • Distance and Home Size: The mileage of the move and the size of your home.

  • Number of Movers: Hourly rates can range from $25 to $50 for one or two movers, increasing to $100 to $200 for a team of four or more.

  • Services: Additional services like packing, unpacking, and storage will add to the cost.

  • Specialty Items: Moving large or delicate items such as pianos, vehicles, or large aquariums incurs extra charges.

  • Timing and Access: The time of year, your specific moving date, and the ease of access to your home can affect rates.

Don’t forget to account for other potential costs like moving supplies and tipping your movers.
