"I had a packing crew and a moving crew. The packing crew was not careful or thorough at all! The next day I went around and found drawers and cabinets still not packed including my silverware. The moving crew was wonderful and concientous. Both at the pickup sight and when delivering"

"Our townhouse had three levels, so there was a lot of carrying up and down stairs. The crew handled beds, dressers, a sectional, dining furniture, boxes, bikes, and several awkward garage items"

"Larry was a wonderful person to work with. He did an absolutely great job in helping us get our house ready to put on the market. He is very knowledgeable and a pretty good teacher too, as he taught me to do a lot of the things he was doing. He knew exactly what needed to be done and did it to our complete satisfaction. After he left, I installed bifold doors in a room that he could not do as we needed to get carpet first. I texted him a picture when I completed it and thanked him for teaching me. He responded with â Iâ m proud of you!â I have already given his name and number to 2 people, one of which was our realtor whom is always in need of names of trustworthy, reliable, and hardworking handymen. I would recommend him to anyone, without hesitation, and will definitely call him again if needed. I would give him 6 stars on a five star scale."

"James B was one of the best service providers that I have ever had. He was thorough and self motivated. I explained what I wanted done, he listened and asked question...then he did the job exceptionally well. I would have him back out again and I highly recommend James B to anyone looking for a service provider. Thanks James B for your hard work and the way you completed the job. I was very happy."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can move a tiny house on skids, although it will be costly to do so frequently. Skids are essentially hefty timbers you can attach a chain to to move the entire structure. People often build their tiny homes on top of the skids, allowing them to be more portable. However, it’s not as simple of a move as a house on wheels, so it’s a more complicated move.

There’s no one-size-fits-all answer to how far you can move your house. Interstate moves will involve additional permits and regulations, with some states having different requirements than others. The most important factor relating to the distance you can move a house is the route that has to be taken to get there. In areas with narrow, winding roads, hilly terrain, and low-clearance bridges, it can be very difficult and expensive to move a home long distances.

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.

Professionals can typically move a one-bedroom apartment in three to five hours. It will take longer if you have many belongings or the destination is far away. The time will also increase if the movers must handle large and cumbersome items, like full sets of dressers and antique wood furniture. DIY moves take significantly longer, typically lasting a full day or more. 

Movers wrap furniture in plastic to provide protection during transportation or storage. Plastic wrap acts as a barrier, safeguarding furniture from dust, dirt, moisture, and potential scratches or damage. It helps to keep upholstery, wood, or delicate surfaces intact, preventing wear and tear during the moving process. Additionally, plastic wrap helps to secure loose components of furniture, such as drawers or doors, reducing the risk of breakage.
