"I can only recommend I & A Moving and Storage. First of all they sent me a really good and competitive quote within an hour. They arrived 10 minutes before the agreed time to allow time to assess how much I had and make sure they started on time. They were very helpful and the whole move was smooth. They finished within the estimated time. I will definitely use their services in the future."

"The move went well. This company is run by a husband and wife team Dave and Hannah. They run a professional business. Their team was awesome. They were all polite and professional. They wrapped the furniture well. There were enough men to load and unload the truck quickly. Out of 300 pieces inclusive of furniture and boxes I had one broken glass top which they offered to pay for. Here’s some advice: #1 Have them come a see what you are moving to get an accurate price. I had a surprise increase on move day but it was my fault because I underestimated the amount of boxes and items to be moved. #2 Beware of the tip at the end. While it was well deserved, it was more than I was prepared to pay at that time. They are looking for 20% so each guy gets something. I would ask, are there any additional fees or monetary expectations. Overall, I was so pleased with the outcome that I recommended them to my BFF who moved here shortly after I did and my sister who will be relocating in the Spring."

"The initial quote was a good one. The initial deposit payment process I was skeptical about, because, they use a payment system called Plaid, which requires you to pay using your bank account number, after doing my research, I found that Plaid was legit, then WorldClass made it easier for me to pay my initial deposit. The WorldClass Moving storage guys came out to pick up my furniture as planned. Once they picked up, I was able to pay by Zelle. The moving coordinators Janice,Sarah and Don were all very polite and knowledgeable. My only suggestion is they give more reminders of your appointed move date and an ETA on the before or day of your move. Otherwise, so far I have no complaints, looking to receive my furniture arrive at its destination in a couple of weeks. I'll do another review of the final move transport process."

Moving questions, answered by experts

It’s best to schedule a moving pod two months before your moving date. This should give you enough time to secure the correct size and number of moving pods you need. It’s often possible to book moving pods on shorter notice, even within one week, but there’s a higher risk of local pods already being taken, especially if you’re moving during the summer or on a holiday or weekend.

Yes, you can move a tiny house on skids, although it will be costly to do so frequently. Skids are essentially hefty timbers you can attach a chain to to move the entire structure. People often build their tiny homes on top of the skids, allowing them to be more portable. However, it’s not as simple of a move as a house on wheels, so it’s a more complicated move.

Focus on decluttering when downsizing to move cross-country. Selling, donating, or recycling unwanted items early in your moving process is key to your success. If you are on the fence about some items, consider storage options, or you can ship these items separately to lessen your load.

Murphy beds can be relocated, but moving them requires disassembly and may involve potential wall repairs. Professional help is recommended to ensure safe removal and reinstallation, which may incur additional costs. Improper handling during the move can damage the bed’s mechanisms or structure, so careful planning and expertise are essential.

You should consider hiring professional movers for moves that seem too daunting, dangerous, or involve large, heavy objects. The larger your home and the longer the distance, the more likely you are to need professional help. A moving service can take the hardest tasks off your plate and reduce the risk of personal injury. However, if you are only moving a few light items, you can save money by moving on your own and renting a truck. Keep in mind that a DIY move requires significant planning and time. A hybrid option is also available, where you hire movers just to lift and transport heavy items to your vehicle.
