"Highly recommend Eagle Moving & Storage. Their service was professional, on time, and everything was handled with care. The entire crew were kind, respectful, and very hard working. Moving is very stressful for many different reasons, we have moved many times in the past. Eagle Moving & Storage eliminated all the stress on moving day. Thankful!"
"This company moved my belongings from McKinney Texas to Chicago Illinois a couple of months ago. The guys packed our one bedroom apartment very professionally and quickly. I would recommend this company to my friends."
"These guys were absolutely wonderful. I feel bad I've never taken the time to sit down and give them a review everything is always so crazy when you're moving and I've moved a bunch. I couldn't do it without them. They are always on time, professional And treat my belongings with the utmost respect. I would never use another company to move. I would like to mention the reason I remembered to sit down and leave one this time. They had a gentlemen named David Roth (I even made sure to get his name). He was such a hard worker and kept everything upbeat and I don't think he ever stopped. I will be requesting him on my next move for sure. Thanks Kentuckians Moving and David Roth for such a wonderful experience."
"Definitely recommend this moving company! They arrived on time and made it work going up and down the stairs when helping us move. They were extremely efficient and made the moving process as easy for us as possible."
"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"
"We were in need to a deck replacement and a friend recommended Your NeighborHood Honey Doer. I contacted Derrick and he came out and gave me a quote. His quote was much cheaper than the other quotes I had received. While doing the demo of my old deck, Derrick recommended a different deck than we discussed and showed us pictures of the style he thought would best suit us. We could not be happier with Derrick and the deck that he built for us. The deck has become the preferred reading spot for us each night. When the job was over and I was paying him, the actual amount of the charges was LESS than the estimate that he provided. It rare to find a good handyman, but Derrick was much more than that, he was also respectful, kind and honest. I highly recommend Derrick as Your NeighborHood Honey Doer and would use his services again."
"Dave arrived on time and began working on the deck. Not only did he tear down the deck but also took all the debris with him. Job took about 4.5 hours. He did discover that additional wood would be needed for the job due to more extensive wood rot. He secured the additional supplies and still finished the job on time as promised. The quoted price did go up however even with the increase, the price was within our range and the finished product was well constructed."
Moving companies offer a variety of service packages to suit different needs and budgets during the moving process. They typically provide loading, unloading, and transportation services, using specialized equipment to handle heavy and bulky items. Services can also include packing assistance, where professional packers securely pack belongings to ensure their safety during transportation. Some moving companies also offer temporary storage options, as well as unpacking services upon arrival.
The average cost to hire professional movers is approximately $1,700, but the total price can range from as low as $920 to over $12,000 depending on the move's complexity. For local moves, typically under 100 miles, costs generally fall between $920 and $2,530. Long-distance moves are more expensive, with prices ranging from $2,700 to $10,000 or more.
Several key factors influence the final cost:
Distance and Home Size: The mileage of the move and the size of your home.
Number of Movers: Hourly rates can range from $25 to $50 for one or two movers, increasing to $100 to $200 for a team of four or more.
Services: Additional services like packing, unpacking, and storage will add to the cost.
Specialty Items: Moving large or delicate items such as pianos, vehicles, or large aquariums incurs extra charges.
Timing and Access: The time of year, your specific moving date, and the ease of access to your home can affect rates.
Don’t forget to account for other potential costs like moving supplies and tipping your movers.
It’s important to never lay a flat-screen TV on its side when moving. Weight can damage the fragile screen, and falling objects are a risk. Always place your TV upright between other large flat objects so it isn’t crushed when the load shifts on a turn. Use moving blankets to pad the space between the objects.
When planning an out-of-state move, you should aim to save enough money to cover at least two to three months of living expenses, including rent, food, utilities, and transportation. Ideally, saving for six months or more is best, especially if you don't have a job lined up. You also need to budget for the transition costs, such as a moving vehicle rental, hiring movers, and packing materials. Cross-country moves typically cost between $2,400 and $6,860. You can calculate your estimated moving costs in advance based on factors like distance, weight, and the number of bedrooms.
Professional movers take care of safely loading, transporting, and unloading all of your belongings. Many movers also offer specialty pricing for whole-house packing, furniture disassembly, relocating fragile items, and more. You’ll benefit from having a moving team take care of your move quickly and efficiently.
