"We heard of all service moving from a family members’ recommendation. Move went very smoothly! Nathaniel, SeaBass and Dominic really took care of our furniture, everything was neatly wrapped up so nothing would get damaged. Would hire again!"
"Movemasters handled a relatively small move for me across Denver. Everyone I interacted with was extremely responsive, efficient, and polite. When it came time for the actual move, the movers were on time, fast, and conscientious about not damaging the furniture or the doors/walls/floors as they disassembled and moved the furniture. When they unloaded at the destination, they pointed out that one item (the leaf for my dining table) had been chipped and offered to have it fixed. (I declined, because it was on the underside of the leaf and I knew it could easily be fixed with some wood glue.) The fact that they pointed it out, when it would have been months before I noticed (if ever) speaks volumes about their integrity and professionalism!"
"The move went extremely well. Ian's company and crew were extremely professional. It was the most professional crew I've used to move my smoker. I give them an A+++ rating!"
"Steven Zubia and his crew crushed our move out and move in, and drop off at a storage unit. The guys were courteous and efficient. Highly recommend for your moving needs!"

"I called United Prime Van Lines only 1 week before my move - they were extremely helpful and accommodating. On the day of the move we hit a snag, as there was someone else moving on my floor at the same time and we only had 1 elevator. They made the most of it and we moved a lot of stuff down 4 flights of stairs in a timely manner. Trustworthy and competent!"
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 helpful for safety reasons to pack knives in their own box and clearly label them. This way, movers can take extra caution when moving these boxes and pack them in the moving truck accordingly. Plus, it will remind you to use extra caution when unpacking that box in your new kitchen.
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.
The base rental cost of a truck is cheaper, on average, and they tend to offer more room than a container. However, the total cost depends on the rental period, distance, move size, storage needs, and travel costs. The main benefit of choosing moving pods is that you don’t have to drive a large truck by yourself, and they can double as storage space. Shipping containers are more efficient for long-distance moves than trucks.
