"Honey Bees Moving was AWESOME! Tim and his team moved our equipment perfectly. It was a tough move with lots of stairs at both ends, and a new location that isn't on GPS completely. They took care of our equipment and both locations like they were their own. I would definitely recommend Honey Bees for any move you're making!"

"Mighty Moving bucks the trend of pretty much every moving service Ià ¢à  à  ve worked with before. I have never had a positive experience with movers until Mighty Moving. Robbie was all over the move with constant communication leading up to and during the move. On the day of, my movers couldnà ¢à  à  t have been more professional, helpful and nice. I would highly recommend working with them. They were so good we used them again two weeks later for my girlfriends move and they overdelivered once again."

"I needed help finding a moving company with a good reputation. I came across Moving APT on websites reporting they were a highly rated moving company, so I called them. I like their procedure and how quickly they moved into getting me a quote and booking my move dates. The movers did their thing, and I had an excellent experience."

"Very smooth move with these movers. They gave me the lowest quotation so I went with them for the move. They disassembled and wrapped everything carefully, so nothing was scratched. They were very quick, only took a few hours to move our whole apt. The final price ended up being near the estimate so I was satisfied!"

"Advanced Moving moved a piano to my 3rd floor condo - up 2 flights of 13 stairs. They kept me informed, we're on time. The movers were friendly and worked flawlessly as a team. I was very grateful for their excellent service and would recommend them for any type of move. Thank you, Advanced Moving ! :)"

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

Some companies offer supplies like dollies and furniture pads for an additional fee. Confirm availability when renting.

Gym equipment can be heavy, so it’s best to transport it using a furniture dolly. When dealing with treadmills, weight machines, or other bulky items, hiring professional movers or roping in some friends and renting a moving van makes sense.

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.

It’s vital to transport a gun safe upright. This type of safe is designed to remain upright, and laying it on its back or sides can potentially damage the safe. That’s why it’s essential to ensure you have a moving truck or trailer that can withstand the weight and is high enough to transport it safely.

A house may need to be moved due to land redevelopment, to avoid demolition, to preserve a historic structure, to adapt to zoning changes, or to relocate to a safer or more desirable location because of climate change.
