"The movers were very knowledgeable and professional. Edwin kept us laughing, which isn't easy in the midst of a move! We had 4 movers and they didn't leave until everything was placed and assembled exactly the way we wanted. This is how moving should be!"
"Moving is nobody's favorite thing to do and hopefully I won't have to move for a while but if I ever move again it would be through Headway. They showed up early, the team was professional and courteous throughout, and I couldn't believe how fast they operated. I would highly suggest for anyone having to move in the future."
"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."
"This team of movers did a great job for us. We had a complicated move from multiple locations (which included packing at one location) into another location. They not only took great care with our property, they made it all happen in one day. They were courteous, helpful and highly efficient. They made would could have been a super stressful day much more manageable! Thank you, Quality Movers!!"
"We had to move our household to two different destinations after the house was sold. Mom moved across town and we had our new home. We contracted both moves with Direct Relocation Services at a very competitive price."
"Absolutely the best moving company that I have ever worked with. They not only used pads to protect the contents, they shrink wrapped each item. They were and are the best moving company I have ever seen. Thank you Andy and the amazing crew."
"The move from SC to PA went flawless, customer service was great, communication was great the whole move was painless , movers were respectful and cared about our needs, it was the best move we have ever had."
"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!"
Moving companies offer a variety of service packages to suit different needs and budgets during the moving process. They typically provide loading, unloading, and transportation services, using specialized equipment to handle heavy and bulky items. Services can also include packing assistance, where professional packers securely pack belongings to ensure their safety during transportation. Some moving companies also offer temporary storage options, as well as unpacking services upon arrival.
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.
Choosing a reliable moving company is critical because you’re entrusting all of your belongings to the professional movers, so you’ll want to make sure you consider the following:
The experience of the movers and the number of years in the industry
The add-on services provided, like packing and storage
The warranty or insurance coverage to protect your belongings
We also recommend confirming that the movers are properly licensed using Angi’s state licensing tool. You can check for certification from organizations like the American Moving and Storage Association.
If you don’t have dividers, wrap each wine glass individually using bubble wrap or packing paper to cushion both the bowl and delicate stem. Secure the wrapping with tape and place glasses upright in a sturdy box, layering soft items like dish towels, crumpled paper, or clothing between them to prevent shifting. Fill any gaps with padding to keep glasses snug, and label the box “FRAGILE–HANDLE WITH CARE” to ensure careful handling.
No, not tipping movers isn’t considered rude. Tipping is optional, not expected. There are plenty of alternative ways to show your appreciation without tipping.
