"All Service Moving was exceptional. Great customer service - easy to schedule and flexible. Royce & Frost did an AMAZING job moving all of our very heavy and fragile belongings. They handled all of our requests and items with care and worked both efficiently and quickly. They were super friendly and very customer service oriented. I can't thank them enough for the GREAT job they did. I highly recommend All Service Moving for anything moving and/or storage related. And DEFINITELY request Royce & Frost to handle your job. Thank You!"

"They moved me in a snow storm. They shoveled my driveway without complaint to get the ramp in. There were no losses or damage. And they were really nice! I’d hire them again in a heartbeat."

"There were a lot of issues following a move. The living room had a curtain header that attracted more attention than the view, and sheetrock riddled with holes and lumpy fixes. The office/guest room walls had what looked like a botched plaster job. The guest bathroom toilet leaked continuously. The master bathroom toilet required a bucket to flush. A favorite wooden step stool had broken in two. I was fortunate to find Tito of Better Dayz Handyman Services. Tito has the experience, know-how, skill and patience to fix a wide range of problems. He helped make decisions, advised regarding equipment and supplies, provided a detailed and reasonable bid, and went to work. He suggested simply to remove the offending curtain header (he was right—it was entirely unnecessary). He patched, sanded, primed and painted walls, disappearing the flaws. He replaced broken parts in both toilets and adjusted for low-flow to save water. And he seamlessly glued and restored the step stool."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to move a 3-bedroom house long distance depends on your budget. Hiring a full-service moving company works best if you have a higher budget. If you’re on a tighter budget, renting a moving van and doing everything yourself is your best bet. Other options include renting a storage container, pod, or freight container. You can also ship your belongings if you don’t have many items. 

A DIY move is cheaper than paying movers. However, hiring professional movers can save you time and stress.

Products that are hazardous, such as aerosol sprays, top the list of what to leave behind during a move. Avoid packing perishables, garden and garage chemicals, pool supplies, compressed gases, and combustible items. If you are trying to move by yourself, you may want to downsize so you have fewer belongings to pack and move (and then unpack).

Yes, it’s worth the cost to hire professional long-distance movers. Professional movers will ensure your household belongings reach your destination safely and efficiently—with many companies already having made similar moving trips recently. Also, professional movers have the proper equipment and experience to ensure your move goes smoothly. 

The most cost-effective way to move is to DIY most of the moving tasks, including packing, driving the moving truck, and loading and unloading. While DIY moving is typically the least expensive option, it makes the process much more time-consuming and difficult. To eliminate some of the physical and time stress associated with DIY moves, consider hiring professional movers for the most essential tasks, such as loading and unloading furniture, and completing easier tasks on your own.
