"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."

"Our move included a detached workshop with tools, storage cabinets, and equipment that required careful loading. The crew asked how we wanted the items grouped and followed the arrangement throughout the move. Heavy cabinets were secured properly, while smaller tools remained packed together. Unloading at the new property was organized and efficient. It was clear they had experience handling more than just standard household furniture."

"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."

"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!"

"Need a mover that handles any type of moving or storage need? - short term removal and storage (for delayed moves or home remodels) - short distance commercial or residential moves? - short or long distance freight service? - short or long distance commercial or residential moves? Then you need to call Joseph Green at On Time Movers. They have helped me and my clients with all of these items and DELIVERED (pun intended) EVERY TIME. In fact, the only thing I would change is the name, because they are so much more than an ‘ On Time Mover’ they are a LIFE SAVER!! Thank you Joseph and the team at On Time Movers! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"

Moving FAQs, 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.

If you are trying to reduce costs, then you should move to Hawaii during the off-season. Typically late spring and fall is when flights and other accommodations are most affordable. The weather is also milder, which makes unpacking more pleasant.

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.

Generally, you should avoid using your car as a storage space if you’re using a shipping company.Your items could get lost or damaged during transport, and most shipping companies won’t cover the cost of damage. Contact the shipping company and ask about their policy ahead of time. Some companies may not allow you to leave anything but necessary paperwork in the car. 

If the dishwasher is in working condition, start and run a complete cycle with nothing inside. Let it drain and sit overnight before removing the hoses. In theory, it should effectively drain. You may find residual water in the hoses, but you can plug them. If the dishwasher breaks down midcycle it can sometimes be full of water. You’ll need to manually remove the water with a plastic cup before removing the dishwasher.
