"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."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

Knowing how much a typical long-distance move will cost is the first step in the budgeting process. Start by calling at least three local moving companies for quotes so you have a ballpark range—then you can start saving weekly. You can also start decluttering your home to reduce your truck weight and try to find donated packing supplies from local businesses or neighbors that recently moved. 

Apartments come with strict regulations about what pets are allowed, so check before you sign a lease. If you have a fish or reptile, wait to move them until everything is set up and you’re ready to do a special move just for them and their aquarium/terrarium.

For a dog or cat, be sure you have a carrier before the move. On moving day, it’s best to designate a “safe room” or even a crate for your pet to help them get used to the new space. Keep everything they need in the safe room, and let them explore the rest of the apartment in their own time.

Transporting a fully-grown tree requires heavy equipment, typically specialized for the task. A tree spade is a truck-mounted tool that removes the tree from the ground in one location, transports it, and places it in a new hole in a new location. A combination of mechanized shovels and lifts is necessary to move very large trees, and the exact tools often depend on location and the surrounding area.

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.

No, not tipping movers isn’t considered rude. Tipping is optional, not expected. There are plenty of alternative ways to show your appreciation without tipping.
