"We had Sam, Bradley, and Mason assist us with a move from one part of King County to the other. They were kind, patient, professional, adhered to CDC COVID-19 guidelines, and made our experience much more pleasant. Moreover, Emma also helped us locate crating and packing materials for the move."

"When we found ourselves moving for the second time in just six months, there was zero hesitation about who to call—Blue Men Moving, without question. After our first move, I wrote a review saying it felt like hanging out with a bunch of buddies. Well, these guys did not disappoint the second time around! They showed up with the same friendly faces, good energy, and plenty of laughter, and then proceeded to bust their butts from start to finish. I was especially ecstatic to see Burke again—it was comforting to have a familiar face in the mix. Along with Burke, we had Ryan C., Myron, Aaron, and Dylan. Truly another fantastic group of guys. They’ve mastered the perfect balance of working hard while still keeping things fun and upbeat. We can’t recommend them enough!"

"I had a packing crew and a moving crew. The packing crew was not careful or thorough at all! The next day I went around and found drawers and cabinets still not packed including my silverware. The moving crew was wonderful and concientous. Both at the pickup sight and when delivering"

"The moving crews on both ends of the trip were prompt, efficient, and courteous. This was a cross-country move, and it would have required several trips if we had rented a truck and moved ourselves, and the cost would have been almost as much. We were pleasantly surprised at the end of the move when the final price was significantly less than the estimate."

"I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HAMPTON MOVING AND STORAGE TO EVERYONE. EXCELLENT, PROFESSIONAL SERVICE. WHEN I CALLED THEM,THE OWNER RYAN HAMPTON CAME OVER TO MY APARTMENT AND WE DISCUSSED EVERY PIECE OF FURNITURE OF THAT I WANTED TO MOVE OUT TO MY NEW APARTMENT. HE WAS VERY FRIENDLY, CARING AND HONEST PROFESSIONAL MAN. HE EXPLAINED THE ENTIRE PROCESS TO ME AND GAVE ME THE PRICE OF THE MOVE. NOT A ESTIMATE. HE GAVE ME A AWESOME AFFORDABLE PRICE. THESE GUYS WERE REMARKABLE. SO PROFESSIONAL, CARING,KIND AND HONEST HARD WORKING MEN. THEY PUT EVERYTHING I OWNED WHERE I WANTED IT TO BE THEY HOOKED UP MY BIG SCREEN TV, MY DVD PLAYER,AND ANTENNA. THEY EVEN MOVED 4 OF MY BIG HOUSE PLANTS FOR ME BECAUSE I WAS NOT ABLE TO CARRY THEM BEING DISABLED ON DISABILITY. IVE MOVED A DOZEN TIMES IN MY LIFE,AND NEVER EVER HAD SUCH A POSITIVE EXPERIENCE BEST MOVING COMPANY. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND YOU TO CALL THEM WHEN YOUR READY TO MOVE. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT. I'VE BEEN RIPPED OFF SO MANY TIMES WITH OTHER MOVERS."

FAQs for moving projects in Amherst, OH

Before hiring a moving company to help you with your move, there are a few things you will want to ask, including: 

  • Is there anything your company won’t move? 

  • Does workers’ compensation cover the crew?

  • Will you disassemble and reassemble the furniture? 

  • Are there packing restrictions?

  • Can you guarantee my delivery date?

  • Can you provide references? 

  • What do you charge extra for?

  • What is your cancellation policy?

Moving insurance helps protect your belongings from damage or loss during the moving process. This policy can help reimburse you either part of or the total amount of your belongings that become damaged during the moving process. Moving insurance has three main options: full value protection, released value protection, and third-party or separate liability coverage. Speak with your moving company to determine what is covered under each policy and their cost to determine the best fit for your needs. 

The average cost to hire movers is between $920 and $2,530 for local moves and $2,700 to $10,000 for long-distance moves. The number of movers you need, the total mileage you’re moving, your moving date, and ease of access to your home all factor into the bottom line. 

For example, if you only need one or two movers, you can expect to pay $25 to $50 an hour. However, if you need four or more movers, that charge increases to $100 to $200 an hour. Moving specialty items, like a piano or large aquarium, will incur additional charges.

In the world of professional moving, moves are broken up into two categories—a local move and a long-distance move. A local move is anything considered under 100 miles, regardless if you’re crossing over state lines. A long-distance move is anything over 100 miles, even if you stay in the same state or location.

If you’re hiring movers to help with your move, there are a few things that you can do ahead of time to set yourself (and the moving company) up for success.

  • Donate or sell items ahead of time to lessen the amount to move

  • Alert your neighbors (or apartment management) of the move so they can plan for the moving truck to arrive

  • Pack your belongings securely ahead of your moving date

  • Disconnect any appliances prior to the moving date

  • Clear a path for the movers to move freely inside your home 

  • Dispose of hazardous materials

  • Discuss with your moving coordinator where to unload the boxes
