"Cory and Colton arrived on the time schedule, did a survey on the apartment and quickly started moving the furniture. They were very professional and did the best they could to finish as early as possible."
"Absolutely the best moving company that I have ever worked with. They not only used pads to protect the contents, they shrink wrapped each item. They were and are the best moving company I have ever seen. Thank you Andy and the amazing crew."

"Moved from Rockland County NY to Florida. The move went super smooth. My items arrived within 4 days. Very happy with their service. Would recommend to anyone moving long distance!"
"Amazing crew!!! I've done a lot of moving over the years and this had to be one the easiest, stress free moves. They were thorough, safe, clean and on time. They moved things quickly and took great care to make sure everything was wrapped properly. I would absolutely use this company again for any future needs!!!"
"Bryan, Josie and their team were great to work with on every project. I started using their services 3 years ago when they were recommended by a local realtor after the contractor that was supposed to get our new home in NJ ready for our arrival from Atlanta was a no show. We had never met on site to do a walk through so everything was done by phone but when we arrived we walked in to what had been a falling apart house that had been empty for at least 3 years and it immediately felt like home. We were worried it wouldn’t be possible with the short notice and lack of a true game plan but they were easy to communicate with, dependable, patient and quick to catch the curve balls that were thrown at them. I am not sure what we would have done without them because we were in a, there’s no turning back now situation and we were moving up to move my mother in law in with us after she had a stroke and a heart attack so it was very stressful to think we may not have a livable home when we got here. Since then they have revisited my home to fix plumbing that we weren’t able to tackle before the move and they have opened up a door way and built a staircase between two buildings for us so that we could expand our business and they were just as wonderful to work with as they were the first time around. I can’t recommend or praise them enough!"
"All My Sons did a wonderful job for the hired move. They were professional and courteous the entire time. They also took great care of the items, large and small, being moved including the wrapped protection. If needing another move, I would hire them again."
It's typically best to hire movers who specialize in moving pianos because moving them often requires specific equipment and finesse, especially when it comes to grand pianos. However, some standard moving companies have experienced piano movers on their team, so it never hurts to call a company and ask about their piano moving expertise.
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.
If you’re using a moving company, the best move in date typically occurs on a weekday in the middle of the month between September and April. Mid-month moves on weekdays are less popular and therefore less costly, and the weather will usually be less severe in the fall or spring. However, if staying on budget is your priority, a mid-month move on a weekday in the winter is your best bet at finding the best deal.
When planning an out-of-state move, you should aim to save enough money to cover at least two to three months of living expenses, including rent, food, utilities, and transportation. Ideally, saving for six months or more is best, especially if you don't have a job lined up. You also need to budget for the transition costs, such as a moving vehicle rental, hiring movers, and packing materials. Cross-country moves typically cost between $2,400 and $6,860. You can calculate your estimated moving costs in advance based on factors like distance, weight, and the number of bedrooms.
If you are hiring professional movers, their company will handle any permits and similar arrangements. But if you are renting a truck to move yourself, you may have to pay permits when moving across state lines or away from a specific city or town. Research your move and its requirements as you plan. Most states, cities, and even rental companies offer useful information about what permits you may need.
