"Four (4) movers arrived within the promised timeframe and immediately set to work readying my baby grand piano for the move. The workers were efficient, professional, and handled my piano with care. I was impressed with how well the workers performed their job as a team, especially when negotiating several steps and setting up the piano in my new place."

"I'm having trouble finding the right words to describe our experience with Potomac Moving Company, but "amazing" and "game changers" come to mind. This was an interstate move (DC to PA) in less-than-ideal conditions (we had to move an adult family member out of the apartment). The crew, Roberto and Harry, were empathetic, caring, and incredibly efficient with packing, loading, and unloading the one-bedroom apartment. I spent the day worrying (needlessly) that the storage unit I had rented was too small. The crew fit all of the items neatly and safely into a 5x10' unit with room to spare. I've never seen anything like it. I also want to give kudos to the front office. They were the first company to respond to my inquiry, answered all of my questions patiently, and kept us informed about when the crew was arriving. The value that we received for the price was off the charts. Put Potomac Moving Company at the top of your list. I would not hesitate to call them again for a move if the"

"Excellent. Very professional. Competitive quote. Great customer service. On time and on budget. Quality work - nothing was broken. Our moving job was a big one - large house and outbuildings moving to 2 different locations. They handled everything like pros. Free moving boxes was a great plus."

"My girlfriend and I recently contacted All Service Moving to help us relocate our furniture from Seattle to Lake City, and the service from them was amazing! Brad and Donald were personable, professional, speedy, and thorough. I definitely recommended their service if you need lots of stuff moved quickly and hiccup-free. They wrapped everything up nicely (they were also very handy with their bubble-wrap, even using it as a doorstop when going in and out for easier access), deconstructed furniture with ease, and overall made the job look so easy!"

"This was a challenging move because the timetable was fluid, the starting hospital was doing substantial renovations including around the loading dock, there are numerous security barriers, the contents were transported from one to two offices and the property being moved was atypical. GJ Moving just smiled, packed it all up and moved the stuff. They were ahead of schedule and under budget at the end."

"Mr. Martin was my contact person for this move and he was very efficient and professional. He helped organize the move, and communicated to me throughout my move. His pricing was excellent. His team lead , Roger and his moving team were on time, very efficient and courteous. My move was a seamless process and I highly recommend them to anyone who would like a wonderful moving experience. Moving is very hard but the Adonis company made it seem effortless and provided a great experience."

"I worked with Robert Igneri for my move from DC to NYC and had a phenomenal experience. During an incredibly busy time for moving in the northeast, Robert managed to get me an outstanding crew (Milton and co) on the dates I requested just a week before the move. He was very responsive to my emails, and Great Nation in general was responsive to my requests. Finally, Milton and his crew picked up at 7:45 AM in DC, and managed to make the move on the SAME DAY, dropping off my goods at 6:45 PM that same night. Overall great experience, fair price, and outstanding crews - highly recommend!"

Moving questions, answered by experts

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

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.

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.

There are several effective ways to save money when hiring a moving company, primarily by handling some tasks yourself and being strategic with scheduling. Consider these methods:

  • Pack Your Own Belongings: You can significantly reduce costs by packing and protecting your items yourself. This includes wrapping delicate items, organizing them into boxes, and taping the boxes closed. You can use towels, clothes, and suitcases to pack belongings and protect breakables.

  • Provide Your Own Materials: Source free packing materials from friends and family, or reuse boxes and bubble wrap from a previous move.

  • Schedule Strategically: Book your move well in advance. Rates are often lower if you schedule your move on a weekday during the off-season, which typically runs from October through April.

  • Compare Quotes: Get moving quotes from at least three professional movers in your area. This allows you to compare services and choose the best value.

  • Ask for Discounts: Inquire if the moving company offers any special coupons or deals.

  • Purchase Moving Insurance: Protect your investment by purchasing moving insurance, especially for expensive or antique belongings.

  • Divide the Labor: While you can save money by packing, it's wise to leave the more dangerous and physically demanding work—like loading, unloading, and moving heavy furniture—to the professionals.

Traveling with your automobile over short distances when moving is typically less expensive than shipping it with a transport company. However, consumers start to break even at around 500 miles. It's typically less costly and worth shipping your car with a professional transport company if the distance you're going exceeds 500 miles.
