"The move was a smooth and pleasant experience for us. We were really stressful before the move. However, Toni and his friends were professional and really did a great job in helping us move from Harrison, NJ. Highly recommend others to try Ziptozip moving for your move."

"moved from a 2 story home into a 3 story home.  I HAD MANY LARGE HEAVY  pieces, all of which went to the second and third floor, in the new home, except for the ding room buffet china cabinet and hutch.  It took them four hours.  Only wish they could have put the bed and futon back together again.. But for just 2 men I WOULD say they did an excellent job.  do not hesitate to call o the Affordable guys  for all your moving needs

"I was pleasantly surprised with the ease of my move. Although it was a short move, the two men doing it were great. They were professional, pleasant, efficient, polite, and a joy to deal with. They packed the truck took it to the storage unit and unpacked it in about two hours. They handled my belongings with care, not harming a thing. I would definitely recommend and use again."

"Very, very well. Lite Movers helped us identify the cheapest way to handle our complex move. They were wonderful to work with and sent us a great team of movers. Prices are reasonable, service was great, and they'll haul your unwanted furniture for a reasonable cost. A friendly, professional team from the moment you call to the end of your move."

"I had a mixed experience with Flex. They were able to get the job done eventually, but they showed up at 10:15 for an 8:00 am move, with no ETA or call to say they would be late. Customer service didn?t provide any real info, they just promised the movers would provide an ETA (which they never did, although they did show up eventually). I get that delays happen, it?s just bad to not give the customer any update, and bad that customer service doesn?t have access to info about where the movers are. The movers seemed a bit lethargic, although they got the job eventually. Some minor scuffing on the furniture and walls. Understandable but not ideal."

Moving questions, answered by experts

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

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.

Plastic bins are excellent alternatives to moving boxes. They’re more durable than the traditional cardboard. Have any unused suitcases? Those can make for great storage solutions for your long-term needs. Avoid plastic bags or anything that doesn’t allow for breathability.

Gym equipment can be heavy, so it’s best to transport it using a furniture dolly. When dealing with treadmills, weight machines, or other bulky items, hiring professional movers or roping in some friends and renting a moving van makes sense.

The number of boxes you need to move depends on the size of their house and whether your style is minimalist or maximalist. However, on average, most people need around 60 boxes to move. It’s essential to pick the correct box sizes to ensure efficient packing.
