"Utilizing All Service Moving for the move was a very positive experience. They had good communication, answering several questions prior to the move and did a final confirmation just prior to the move date. As for the physical move itself, Jose, Abraham, and Alberto were polite, diligent, and careful moving the many items, and managed to complete the move more quickly than anticipated."

"My husband and I were moving and looking searched online for a good moving company. We came across Zip to Zip Moving online and called for a rate. We spoke with someone and got a great rate. The morning of our move we were contacted by the movers to confirm the start time of our move. The movers were in time and very professional. Zip to Zip offers people a way to save money with selecting the item to move or not to move. We were also able to select the materials used during to move to save more money. We are so happy to have found Zip to Zip Moving. We would definitely use their services again."

"My move went incredibly smooth. Billy‘s team was incredibly professional and easy to communicate with. Great Movers and Storage was also super affordable and had zero hidden fees - they were great about communicating everything at the start of our move. I would recommend Billy’s team and this moving company to anyone."

"Given I've never had pleasant experiences in the past with the plethora of different moving companies my family has used, I figured it would be only fair to shout out Monroe Moving for making my move very easy and stress-free. Shout out to Adam who was extremely diligent and helped me with all my needs. Would recommend to my family and my friends most certainly. Keep up the great work guys and thank you!"

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

Although purchasing moving insurance will add to the total cost of your move, it might take a weight off your shoulders. Moving insurance covers roughly 60 cents per pound. If you’re moving several antique or fragile items, you may want to invest in moving insurance covering damage or item losses.

The first step to choosing a relocation company is determining the distance of your move, types of services needed, and how many professional movers you need to hire. Once you set the parameter of your move, get price quotes from at least three local moving companies to compare pricing. Then, choose a relocation company that fits within your budget, supplies the necessary services, and has positive reviews from previous moving customers.

Gym equipment can be heavy, so it’s best to transport it using a furniture dolly. When dealing with treadmills, weight machines, or other bulky items, hiring professional movers or roping in some friends and renting a moving van makes sense.

Tipping movers is not mandatory, and most professional companies do not expect it. However, it is a common way to show appreciation for their hard work and the care they take with your belongings and home. A standard tip is between 10% and 20% of your total bill, split among the crew, or about $10 per mover per hour, tipped individually. It's an especially good idea to tip if the movers work in difficult weather, handle specialty items like pianos or pool tables, provide extra packing services, or go above and beyond your expectations.

Just as moving a couch by yourself isn’t always a good idea, moving a heavy bed frame by yourself is not advisable. Doing so puts you at risk of injury, and you can damage the frame if you drop it or bang it while moving it. The best way to move a heavy bed frame is to enlist the help of friends or family or hire professional movers with the experience and equipment to move it safely and efficiently.
