"Went fairly well. Jack was very responsive via text and emails. I had to change the move date and he happily accommodated me. Jack gave me a binding quote for the job and that's what I paid at the end. The movers came in on time and handled everything as Jack had suggested. They disassembled and reassembled any thing that needed to be. I even added an item last minute. Called Jack to let him know. He said no problem, no charge. Only thing I would say was that they ran out of the plastic carpet cover by the time we went to the new house. I suggest they keep an extra roll or two in the truck, just in case. Very satisfied with overall service. However, let me tell you, moving is not cheap."

"Great customer service and they were super professional. We had an issue with getting into our new place and they worked with us and were patient. Hard working moving crew. Would definitely hire again if moving."

"From start to finish, Shleppers was the best moving experience we’ve ever had and we’ve moved many times. Nicholas Rodriguez, our rep at Shleppers, priced our move and scheduled our moving date quickly and efficiently. Bob’s moving crew was exceptional! They went above and beyond in every way. They were careful with all of our furniture, and were happy to do whatever we asked. Next time we move, we will definitely use them again."

"I had a local move from New Haven, CT to Hamden, CT, and the whole process went smoothly. The movers arrived on time and stayed organized throughout the day. They handled my furniture carefully and made sure everything was secured properly. Unloading was done without any confusion. Nothing was damaged during the move."

Moving questions, answered by experts

Movers are very skilled in everything having to do with the moving process. From knowing which supplies and materials to use for certain items, to packing, to knowing how to efficiently load a truck, they have experience doing it all. And professional movers often do it all faster and more efficiently than a typical homeowner could.

When booking a moving truck, be sure to consult the company guidelines to determine whether they allow plants to ride in the moving vehicle. However, if you’re making a long-distance move, you should transport your plants in a temperature-controlled environment, which may rule out a moving truck. If you can put your plants in the moving truck, consider stacking them in the farthest corner to avoid extreme temperatures.

Professionals can typically move a one-bedroom apartment in three to five hours. It will take longer if you have many belongings or the destination is far away. The time will also increase if the movers must handle large and cumbersome items, like full sets of dressers and antique wood furniture. DIY moves take significantly longer, typically lasting a full day or more. 

To prepare furniture for moving, detach furniture legs if possible. If the legs must stay on, wrap them with foam wrap or taped blankets to help prevent damage. You can also buy dedicated moving “socks” for furniture legs.

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.
