"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."

"I have used We Move Philly many times to help my children move in and out of apartments, both in-state and out-of-state, and they have been exceptional every time. They are punctual, professional, and make every move run smoothly. Their team packs and unpacks quickly and efficiently, taking great care with everything. Once, when We Move wasn’t available, I used another mover and several items were damaged because the truck wasn’t packed properly. I called We Move Philly in tears, explaining that I still had a long drive ahead to New York City. They came right away, repacked the truck, and made sure everything was secure so I could continue my move safely. When my daughter needed to move between apartments in New York, We Move handled it for less than any local mover I contacted—and they even provided their own truck, so I didn’t need to rent a U-Haul. I truly can’t recommend We Move Philly enough. They do an incredible job and make the entire moving process stress-free."

"From the original phone call until the end RMS staff were professional and made our move very easy. The moving guys were excellent and took great care moving our furniture. They were on time and finished ahead of schedule. I would highly recommend them. The cost was below all other moving quotes we received."

"I needed to move a number of large furniture items from Collegeville to Chesterbrook within a few days as part of clearing out a house. Litemovers was great. Morgaine, who answered the phone and coordinated everything, was delightful. The men who did the move - Ed, Karl and Drew - were efficient, timely and careful. I couldn’t have been happier with the short notice scheduling and the move itself. I highly recommend Litemovers."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to transport a TV is to wrap and pack it tightly in a TV moving box with plenty of padding to protect it from damage. If a box is not available, you can use moving straps and moving blankets to secure the TV in an upright position within the moving vehicle. To prevent it from shifting during transportation, place large pieces of furniture around it for stability.

In most cases, you don’t need to order food for movers. They will schedule breaks to eat throughout the day. However, you can provide drinks and snacks in an easy-to-access location for the movers to grab throughout the day.

To pack mugs securely for a move, start by lining the bottom of a moving box with padded packing material like bubble wrap. Wrap each mug individually, tucking the ends of the bubble wrap inside the mug for a snug fit. For extra protection, consider using a moving box with built-in slots to keep the mugs separated.

When placing the mugs in the box, pack them tightly enough to prevent them from shifting, but not so tightly that they are under pressure. Fill any empty gaps between the mugs with additional packing material. To keep the box from becoming too heavy, it's best to pack no more than 10 mugs per box. Finally, be sure to label the box as “fragile” so movers know to handle it with care.

A reasonable moving budget for local moves is $880 to $2,540, while you can expect long-distance moves to cost between $2,700 to $10,000, depending on distance, house size, and other cost factors. You can calculate your relocation budget by totaling the cost of your moving services, such as renting a moving truck, hiring professional movers, and packing services.

Moving a house is a complex and labor-intensive process, which is why it can get so pricey, particularly if it’s a large home. In some cases, the house may need to be dismantled, moved in sections, and then reassembled at the new location, which can add significantly to the cost of the move. However, it’s typically less costly than building a new home.
