Your Trusted Moving Partner in Minnesota! Whether you're relocating across the street or across the state, we've got you covered! From efficient local moves to seamless long-distance relocations, we make moving stress-free and straightforward.
We will never move alone again. After seeing how efficient and careful and cheerful the moving team was, we can't imagine moving without help. Much of our things were boxed already and the team was able to just move them onto the truck with the furniture and things. They were very careful to wrap furniture and move it without damaging the item or the house. The team did a great job of explaining the process and really amazed me with getting some big items into small places. Wonderful work from a company that seems to be very well run.
Description of Work: We were moving a 2000 square foot house of things across town to a larger home. After a detailed call from the moving consultant, they sent a truck and 3 men on the scheduled day. We filled the truck and unloaded it the same day. We had some larger furniture and around 100 boxes.

The service from the estimate to preparation to actual move was fantastic. The crew worked hard, was careful, and got as much on board as possible so that we would have only one trip and stay within the estimate. Nothing was damaged. Politeness and effort was so good that we tipped them well.
Description of Work: Moved medium and large items about 4 miles to new home.

The movers were very professional and personable. They made the move go very smoothly, and made it much more enjoyable than it would have been otherwise. I was made aware of every piece of furniture that might encounter issues during the move, yet have not come across anything that was damaged. The free use of the boxes was a godsend and a definite benefit of using Local Motion. I would highly recommend their services to anyone!

Everyone at Local Motion was great. Adam told us when they would show up and how long it would take - his estimates were right on. The movers were easy to work with and moved FAST. I'll hire them again for my next move.

I was told our movers would be there between 8:30 and 9:00 a.m. At 8:00 I received a phone call that they were on their way and promptly at 8:30 they were at our door. Hutch introduced himself and his partner, Carl. We went over the contract and then those guys went to work. And they didn't slow down for 7 hours! My husband and I (both 50) were exhausted watching them. Even though it was 10 degrees outside (with a windchill, of course) they were both pleasant and eager to please throughout the entire move. I was very pleased by their professionalism and hard work.

It went smoothly. The whole process of working with Local Motion was a good one. From the call back and reminder from the company to the movers. The movers were very much boys. They had smelly teenage feet and had to be asked several times to remove their snowy shoes on the new hardwood floors. Even so, they did good work. Worked hard and did not take breaks on the clock, and treated all the boxes with care.
Description of Work: Moved all furniture and boxes from a one bedroom apartment (second floor) to a single family 2 story home. Move was approximately 2.5 miles away. They charged $55 per hour per mover, with a $75 truck/overhead etc. fee. I had about 25 boxes. One dresser. A bicycle. A bed. Two end tables. A ladder. It took them approximately 2 hours and 45 minutes from start to finish.

Great. My phone consultation with Ryan let me know what the cost would be. The moving teams did a great job. I would use Local Motion again and will recommend them to friends.
Description of Work: This was an in-house move. They moved all furniture from my upstairs to the garage/basement while my upstairs floors were being refinished and then came back to move everything back into place. Both moving teams were on-time, efficient, easy to work with and did a great of job dealing with concerns regarding moving furniture onto newly refinished floors.

Contacted this company on the advice of friends who had used them. Response to our called was very professional and friendly. Gave us much advice on how to efficiently orchestrate the move. Provided boxes for move; as many as we wanted for free; but had to return empty boxes within a month of the move. Date set for move. Arrived exactly on time. Four young men on moving team. No messing around...went to work immediately. Half the time they actually ran from house to van and back. Very careful not to damage any items. Same with unloading items into new house which was located in same city. Took about 2/3 of the time estimated for the move, which lowered our final cost. Did an excellent job.
Description of Work: Moved all furniture and belongings from old house to new house. Move included: furniture from 4 bedroom home; accumulated items from 25 yrs of collecting stuff; multiple boxes; some fragile items.

Local Motion did a great job! They estimated it would take a minimum of 3 hours with 3 guys, and had estimated 3.5 to 4 hours of work, and it came in well under time and budget, which is rare in my past experience with other moving companies. Bob & the guys were fantastic to work with. They arrived on-time, were friendly, asked questions & worked very quickly. They did a great job wrapping & protecting my furniture, & only made 1 small ding in 1 piece, which is pretty much unnoticeable and no problem at all. Thanks for a great move - I''d definitely use you guys again and recommend you to others!
Description of Work: Local Motion moved my entire 1 bedroom apartment on the third floor to my new 2 bedroom condo on the second floor.

Bill and Ruben were great! They called before coming out, arrived promptly and got to work right away. The challenge in this move was getting everything out of the third floor using the only option available--steep stairs. They did yeoman's work--no complaining, no dropping of belongings, no scraping of walls. At the other end of the move the challenge was backing the truck down a long and narrow alley to get it as close as possible to the front door of the building. Once again, they were great. Patient and determined to make it work. And they did! I would hire these guys again in a heartbeat.

Wow! These guys are TERRIFIC! I expected that my furniture would, with great effort, be moved, but I didn't expect it to be done so (seemingly) effortlessly and, on top of it, with ENTHUSIASM ??!! I had heavy, heavy things to be moved and, while I expected groans, these young men approached the situation with a remarkable "no problem!" attitude. Even the people in the front office were helpful by close communication throughout the process and a very helpful website. From my initial call until the job was done this was an efficient and more than professional experience.
Description of Work: Furniture (including a large leather sofa, large screen projection television, game table and piano), was moved from one level of the house to another.

Very professional, careful and punctual. No items were broken and of all the furniture, including a piano, none were damaged or scraped except for one small scrape on an entertainment center that went to the third floor (and barely fit up the stairs). It did take two hours longer than the estimate, but it was still a good value and worth the money.
Description of Work: Moved us from Minneapolis to St. Paul, approximately 80 boxes as well as all furniture and breakables. Also unloaded a storage unit to move contents to our new place.

This is the second time that I have used Local Motion and both experiences were great. The estimate was very close to actual. The crew was on time and careful with my stuff. I had some very large pieces, lots of stairs and beautiful old wood work to be careful of. The crew worked very hard, took a couple of breaks and got the job done in good time.

They were on time with a group of 4 guys. They were very nice, patient and we had no problems. They do advertise that they give free boxes but you had to travel far to get them. You had to return them and I did not use that option. But all in all I would use them again.
