Q: Should you tip movers?

• <div><p>Tipping movers is not mandatory, and most professional companies do not expect it. However, it is a common way to show appreciation for their hard work and the care they take with your belongings and home. A standard tip is between 10% and 20% of your total bill, split among the crew, or about $10 per mover per hour, tipped individually. It's an especially good idea to tip if the movers work in difficult weather, handle specialty items like pianos or pool tables, provide extra packing services, or go above and beyond your expectations.</p></div>

Q: What’s included in a professional movers' cost?

• <div><p>Professional movers take care of safely loading, transporting, and unloading all of your belongings. Many movers also offer specialty pricing for whole-house packing, furniture disassembly, relocating fragile items, and more. You&rsquo;ll benefit from having a moving team take care of your move quickly and efficiently.</p></div>

Q: Can I take my potted plants when I move?

• <div><p>Yes, you can take your potted plants with you when you move if you use sterilized potting soil. However, some states have strict guidelines about this practice, so it&rsquo;s best to consult the Department of Agriculture&rsquo;s regulations surrounding pest control and plant types ahead of your move.</p></div>

Q: How do I ship furniture to another state?

• <div><p>There are generally three ways to ship furniture to another state: hiring professional movers, using consolidated freight, or through parcel shipping. Professional movers will generally pack your boxes in a truck and transport them to a storage facility or directly to your home. </p><p>A consolidated freight service will pack, load, and ship your items, but this is best to use for one or two pieces since your items will take longer to be delivered and will share truck space with other items. Parcel shipping such as UPS and FedEx is best for smaller items since there are size limits, and you&rsquo;ll have to drop the boxes off at a local branch.</p></div>

Q: Can two people move a gun safe?

• <div><p>In most cases, you will need at least three able-bodied people to move a gun safe. Since gun safes are bulky and heavy, they can easily tip when you try to load them on the dolly and onto the truck or trailer. The more help you can get, the better! You should also consider hiring a team of professional movers to help with this heavy-duty move.</p></div>

"My wife and I hired United Prime Van Lines to move our 2 bedroom apartment. The movers worked exceptionally quick, and fast. They took care of all our belongings. Paul and Javier continued to stay in contact with us throughout the move with a 6 hour drive in between. This was important to us as, the distance isn't short and out belonging are expensive. The constant stories you hear in the news about movers didn't help us when picking a moving company, however, United Prime Van Lines took all of the stress out of the move for us."
