"Jet Movers were incredible to work with. I needed a move late notice and they were able to move all my items quickly and safely. My floors were just done and before laying down any of the big items, they let me put floor protectors down on the legs of all my furniture prior to putting in the final location. Definitely recommend for anyone looking for speed, quality and at a competitive price."

Their knowledge about moving and handling belongings with care was impressive. Truly skilled at their craft, they made our move seamless and stress-free. Highly recommend! P.S. For any future moves, we only want Ricardo and Lou, no one else."

"The move team, J.R., Eugene and Joe, were absolutely outstanding. They were on time, professional, quick, friendly and laughed at my silly and unfunny jokes. I appreciate how they moved and placed my furniture with care and the best positioning. Moving is very stressful for my husband and me because we are seniors and both disabled. We were comfortable with putting everything in their hands. We hope to get them again if we move again."

"Elite movers were great! I had 4 movers that brought all the packing materials, packed and moved everything within 7 hours. They treated my items with care and were very helpful. Thank you for successful move and for a great packing. It would take me weeks to finish packing what they did within just few hours."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you’ll need a dolly to move a washer or dryer. These appliances are extremely heavy and cumbersome. A dolly and heavy-duty straps will streamline the moving process and reduce the chances of an accidental injury. As a bonus, a dolly helps protect your flooring from scratches that can occur during the moving process.

Moving a washer and dryer can be difficult due to the appliances’ weight and size. If you need to move these appliances up or down stairs, then it will be more challenging. It also depends on the type of dryer you have, as a gas dryer is more complicated to disconnect than an electric dryer. The difficulty of the task also depends on whether you’re easily wheeling the washer and dryer up a moving truck’s loading ramp or lifting them yourself.

You can move a pool table without taking it apart only if you’re moving it a short distance, like from one room to another, and with the help of several people or a professional moving company. But if you’re moving the pool table from one home to another, experts strongly advise you not to move it without taking it apart. If you leave it in one piece, you could risk not only your own personal safety, but also risk damage to the pool table itself. The bumpers could need to be realigned and the slate may have to be re-leveled if you try to move a pool table without taking it apart. In this case, the risk usually doesn’t outweigh the reward.

To prepare furniture for moving, detach furniture legs if possible. If the legs must stay on, wrap them with foam wrap or taped blankets to help prevent damage. You can also buy dedicated moving “socks” for furniture legs.

Moving a one-bedroom apartment yourself can range from $150 to more than $1,500, depending on distance, the amount of belongings you have, and more. On the other hand, the cost of hiring movers for a one-bedroom apartment is around $1,850 on average. You’ll save money with the DIY route, but the process is much more labor-intensive and time-consuming.
