Everything was smooth and seamless. Also, they tell you upfront what to expect and no hidden fees. I Highly recommend using Golan's Moving & Storageto everyone."

"Excellent moving service! I used this service for moving some furniture into our garage, and then for our complete move to another home. They are on time, call ahead, and they worked hard to make sure there was no damage done to our things or either home. They actually cared about where things went and they walked through at the end in case we wanted to make changes. Chris is very responsive, the moving team is incredibly efficient, and they made moving far less stressful than it could have been. DEFINITELY recommend."

"This review is almost a year overdue! WCM helped me and my brother with a last minute move at a really difficult time! From Nick the salesman. to Josh the dispatcher, and the hard muscle work of Ricardo, Brayan, Felix, it could not have gone more smoothly!! I would recommend them to anyone in any situation! They were courteous and professional throughout the entire process!"

"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 questions, answered by experts

It’s rare to rent moving straps alone. Typically, you buy them outright. However, if you rent moving equipment, like loading tools or a furniture dolly, from a local or big-box business, they may come with moving straps for you to use.

If you need to move your heavy couch to another part of your home , the safer option is to hire a professional moving team. More complex moving situations require professional services, which will make the move much easier and prevent serious injury.

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.

While your movers focus on packing and transporting your belongings, you can focus on other parts of your move, such as preparing children and pets to move or cleaning rooms as they’re emptied. You’ll need to be onsite as your movers pack or unpack your stuff, and can help direct movers to where items should go if they need help. Additionally, if there are certain items you’d prefer to move yourself, such as valuables or sentimental items, focus on packing those things and taking them with you during your move.

Using moving pods is generally cheaper than hiring a full-service moving company, primarily because you handle the packing and loading yourself, which eliminates labor costs. The cost savings are most significant for long-distance or cross-country moves; for local moves, hiring a moving company might be the more economical option. Renting and shipping moving pods can cost between $2,000 and $5,000, depending on factors like distance, the number of containers, and the weight of your items. Some services also charge a monthly rental fee of $75 to $200. In comparison, hiring a professional moving company for a long-distance move typically costs between $2,700 and $10,000.
