"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."

"Our move included a detached workshop with tools, storage cabinets, and equipment that required careful loading. The crew asked how we wanted the items grouped and followed the arrangement throughout the move. Heavy cabinets were secured properly, while smaller tools remained packed together. Unloading at the new property was organized and efficient. It was clear they had experience handling more than just standard household furniture."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, it’s possible, but it’s important to be extremely careful, and always remove rocks and heavier hardscape items. Drain all the water from the tank, leaving just enough to keep the gravel slightly submerged to keep your bacteria alive. Then, grab a helper or two and carefully lift the tank from either side, supporting the bottom and keeping it level. If the tank is especially heavy, consider slipping plywood underneath to minimize pressure on the glass. Be sure to pack it so it stays level and doesn’t shift during transit.

Moving across state lines is a similar process to moving within a state. Packing, loading, and unloading of trucks will follow the same process. The primary difference is during transportation, where your belongings may be loaded onto a dedicated moving truck or combined with other shipments, depending on the distance. Your moving company will offer tracking and ongoing communication of your boxes.   

Yes, you’ll need a dolly to move a washer or dryer. These appliances are extremely heavy and cumbersome. A dolly and heavy-duty straps will streamline the moving process and reduce the chances of an accidental injury. As a bonus, a dolly helps protect your flooring from scratches that can occur during the moving process.

You should give yourself ample time to pack clothes for a move. For best results, begin packing at least a few weeks before moving. The packing process may take shorter or longer depending on how many clothes you have and the size of your home. Start with clothing that’s out of season and work you way to the pieces you plan to pack in your moving-day suitcase.

How long it takes movers to move cross-country depends on location, travel route, weather, and the moving company's schedule. Typically, a cross-country move can take 7 to 14 days. Always check with your mover for the most accurate estimate tailored to your situation.
