Q: What is the oldest that my mobile home can be to move?

• <div><p>According to the <a href="https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/housing/rmra/mhs/faqs">U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development,</a> mobile homes built before 1976 do not meet the current safety standards and shouldn&rsquo;t be moved even a short distance.</p></div>

Q: How can I move my couch through a narrow doorway?

• <div><p>To move a couch through a narrow doorway, first measure the couch and the doorway to ensure it will fit. For a close fit, you can create more space by removing the interior door; tap out the hinge pins with a nail and shift the door sideways to remove it from its hinges. You may need to turn the couch on its side or move it in separate pieces, if possible. Using furniture sliders can also help you slide the couch through the doorway.</p></div>

Q: How long does an out-of-state move typically take?

• <div><p>Depending on distance and individual scheduling needs, from a few days to a week.</p></div>

Q: Why is it so expensive to move a pool table?

• <div><p>Pool tables are exceptionally heavy, some weighing as much as <b>2,500 pounds</b>. As a result, they require multiple movers to move, and because of their size, it's difficult to get them upstairs or around tight corners. You can save money on pool table moving by using your own packing supplies and disassembling them before movers arrive. </p></div>

Q: How many moving pods do I need to move a 4-bedroom house?

• <div><p>Moving pods are most often available in three sizes: 8, 12, and 16 feet. To move a four-bedroom house, you&rsquo;ll likely need two 16-foot moving pods. Of course, the exact answer depends more on your house&rsquo;s square footage and the amount of belongings you have than on the number of bedrooms in the house. For example, moving a small four-bedroom house may only require one 16-foot pod and one 8-foot pod, but moving a large four-bedroom house may require more than two 16-foot pods.</p></div>

"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."
