"Overall, my experience was very good. The person who helped me with my quote was responsive and personable. We did have some communication issues regarding some of the items we wanted moved. We crews that helped us with the physical move worked very hard and provided solutions when issues came up. The single recommendation I could provide to anyone is be 100% sure everything you want to move is on the digital inventory at least 5 days before moving day. The day of the move, I found things were missing on the digital inventory even though we talked about it."

"I highly, highly recommend Best Moving Service. From the moment I emailed the company and then called and spoke with Doug for a quote, everything was handled with utmost professionalism, and they made it all as easy as possible. The information was all provided in a clear and honest manner, and the company was very diligent about confirming everything. As a veteran of numerous moves, including cross country moves -- and thus a veteran of every type of positive and negative experience -- I was somewhat stressed about this small move because we were on a very tight schedule. Turns out there was nothing to worry about. Art and Albert showed up right on time, the move went quickly and smoothly and with great care for our items, and we were all incredibly pleased by the experience. We have a couple of other moves coming up in the future, and Best Moving Service will be our go-to!"

"I highly recommend this company! Karl was very responsive to my needs to move from an apartment to a home. On moving day, his crew (Victor, David & Mike) contacted me with their arrival time, and when they got to my apartment, they quickly got to work. They were very professional and friendly and took great care with my furnishings. Give Karl a call if you need to move!!"

"All moves are stressful because there are a lot of moving parts (pun intended) but Derek and his team, both the So Cal AND the Boise folks, were just top notch. There's not enough time or space to convey what I was most impressed with about A-R, the company, or Derek Zimmer, chief in charge. Derek is just masterful when it comes to the tetris, puzzle + geometry of efficient packing and loading. But it is his clear, calm demeanor that made the difference in my overall satisfaction with his services. In the realm of moving and relocation services, he is wise beyond his years and I can highly recommend his company, A-R Moving."

"I used beefcake moving ten years ago to move me from OC to LA. I recently used them again this time to move me back home to Kentucky. I see theyâ ve come a long way, nice to see they have the same moving crews as well. They were a pleasure to deal with. Happy to recommend them."

"We hired Silver Star Moving and Storage to move furniture from many rooms to other rooms, our garage and PODS while we were having our hardwood floors refinished. A 3person crew (Justin, Javier and Jose) came on time and had all the dollys, plastic wrap and other moving equipment to move our home contents. They took extra care while moving the furniture from storage to the rooms with newly refinished hardwood floors. They took very extra care and no scratches in the flooring was done and the furniture, washer and dryer were professionally wrapped and stored. They will be back to move items from our pods and garage after the wood floors on the upper level are refinished. The office staff were also very helpful (Sabrina and Amy). They followed up after the move to make sure all went well. We would highly recommend the Company"

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Moving a washer and dryer may require a permit as it involves changing the plumbing in a home. Plumbing related permits cost between $50 to $500, but a pro can typically handle this process end to end. Always check with your plumber beforehand if a permit is needed and how that may impact project timelines.

Hiring professionals ensures safe transport of belongings, reducing stress with full-service options such as packing, loading, and delivery. Their expertise in logistics and handling provides a smooth relocation experience, meeting all regulatory requirements.

A reasonable moving budget for local moves is $880 to $2,540, while you can expect long-distance moves to cost between $2,700 to $10,000, depending on distance, house size, and other cost factors. You can calculate your relocation budget by totaling the cost of your moving services, such as renting a moving truck, hiring professional movers, and packing services.

To move a couch through a narrow doorway, first measure the couch and the doorway to ensure it will fit. For a close fit, you can create more space by removing the interior door; tap out the hinge pins with a nail and shift the door sideways to remove it from its hinges. You may need to turn the couch on its side or move it in separate pieces, if possible. Using furniture sliders can also help you slide the couch through the doorway.
