"Perfectly! The crew was polite, fast, careful and efficient. Loaded the truck in 5 hours, taking the exact amount of time in pre-move estimate. Arrived on time the next day and proceeded with a fast and damage-free unload. This was the easiest, most stress-free move I've ever experienced. Mark's price was the best of 5 estimates, his crew the best I've ever worked with. I recommend Mark Bos Moving 100%!"

"I had a wonderful experience with your company From my Move on November 7th. The entire crew were fast and friendly. Not a thing was scratched or bent/broken or dented. You all worked ahead of the clock and I am very happy with everything from start to finish. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anybody that would need to move. Again thank you for working with our family on our move. I can tell your team is a family also."

"Chris was our lead mover. He and his team were very professional and carefully moved all of our items into a pod. They took apart our furniture, unmounted tvs and wrapped art work. We are planning on using all my sons again for our move into the new home. The move ended up costing more than we planned due to needing extra moving supplies."

Moving questions, answered by experts

There are some household items movers won’t pack, while there are others that are important to keep on your person during the move. Don’t pack the following items:

  • Poisonous, hazardous, flammable, or explosive items, including some cleaners, matches, alcohol, and paint

  • Perishable food items

  • Pets and plants

  • Irreplaceable items and documents, such as your passport, will, and medical records

Moving a washer and dryer can be difficult due to the appliances’ weight and size. If you need to move these appliances up or down stairs, then it will be more challenging. It also depends on the type of dryer you have, as a gas dryer is more complicated to disconnect than an electric dryer. The difficulty of the task also depends on whether you’re easily wheeling the washer and dryer up a moving truck’s loading ramp or lifting them yourself.

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.

It is best to book a moving company two to three months before your move-out date. This provides enough time to compare rates, organize your belongings, and find an available crew for your desired day and time. While you might find movers with only one or two weeks' notice, some companies require booking up to 90 days in advance.

Planning ahead is especially important if you're moving during the busy summer season when demand is highest. Summer weekends, in particular, book up quickly. Securing your movers well in advance helps you avoid the stress and potential extra fees of last-minute arrangements.

How long it takes to move into an apartment depends on many factors, including the amount of belongings you’re bringing with you, how accessible the apartment is (do you have an elevator, or will you be walking up and down several flights of stairs with boxes?), and whether or not you’re hiring a moving company. Having said that, for a local one-bedroom apartment, it usually takes a moving company between two and five hours to move you in.
