"Moving APT made our cross-country move incredibly smooth and stress-free! From the initial quote to the final delivery, their team was professional and efficient. They handled our apartment move with care, ensuring our furniture arrived without a scratch. Highly recommend them for anyone planning a long-distance move!"
"The initial quote was a good one. The initial deposit payment process I was skeptical about, because, they use a payment system called Plaid, which requires you to pay using your bank account number, after doing my research, I found that Plaid was legit, then WorldClass made it easier for me to pay my initial deposit. The WorldClass Moving storage guys came out to pick up my furniture as planned. Once they picked up, I was able to pay by Zelle. The moving coordinators Janice,Sarah and Don were all very polite and knowledgeable. My only suggestion is they give more reminders of your appointed move date and an ETA on the before or day of your move. Otherwise, so far I have no complaints, looking to receive my furniture arrive at its destination in a couple of weeks. I'll do another review of the final move transport process."
"This was my first time using a moving service but it went better than expected. Quick and easy process. Great communication from Anthony and customer service. The movers wrapped and tagged my stuff. I used to move so I was looking out for the same quality I learned. They did well. My items should be here within a week but so far so good."
"I enrolled online at a website that had numerous companies call and bid for this relocation. USL contacted me along with at least 7 other companies. I am not sure how many companies really did call me because I lost count after the 100th phone call. I spent a good hour a day for a week deleting voicemail messages after I entered my information on the aforementioned website. USL had a well spoken salesman who clearly explained the moving process and gave me a price of $900.00 that was better than almost all of the other estimates I was given. The move day came and the movers arrived within the hour window the salesman had given me during the scheduling process. When the movers started using shrink wrap to wrap my furniture prior to placing the large padded blankets over it, I was a little concerned that I would get charged for the use of shrink wrap. Needless to say, I didn't end up paying any more than estimated aside from the 60 dollars I tipped the mover. 20 dollars a piece seemed appropriate, but since this is my first time using a moving company I wasn't really sure what was appropriate and the salesman told me that tips were not mandatory and to tip based on how I felt the movers did. The movers finished wrapping up and loading all my furniture within an hour and a half. I didn't receive any phone calls from USL for two days after my furniture was picked up, so I decided to call in myself. The customer service representative who answered phone put me on hold for about 5 minutes, and when she came back to the line she told me that my furniture would be delivered in 3 days between 2 and 3 PM. I thought maybe she had just looked at the contract that the salesman had told me and repeated the information. When I asked her if she was sure, she told me that she personally talked to their "dispatch" department and that the shipment would arrive at the same time stipulated in the contract. Sure enough, the furniture was delivered five days after my original pickup and everything was accounted for and in good shape. Two out of the three movers who delivered my items were the same guys who picked up my furniture. They told me that the third mover was dropped off at local USL hub on the way to me to go elsewhere for the company. At the end I thought because I had already tipped the same movers on the pickup that another tip was not necessary. Not sure if that was the right call but what's done is done. All together, if I ever had to move again I would call USL. I'm hoping that doesn't happen any time soon because moving is no fun at all."
"After I contracted with them they were hard to get in touch with after telling me that they would be handling the entire move even after they contracted with their subcontractor. The subcontractor that packed everything was excellent, the guys that delivered were okay and left a couple of glass pieces still with the packing blankets and cardboard on them. They also left the cardboard outside without telling me. I also contacted the subcontractor about a box that was missing and I never heard back from them."
The average cost to hire professional movers is approximately $1,700, but the total price can range from as low as $920 to over $12,000 depending on the move's complexity. For local moves, typically under 100 miles, costs generally fall between $920 and $2,530. Long-distance moves are more expensive, with prices ranging from $2,700 to $10,000 or more.
Several key factors influence the final cost:
Distance and Home Size: The mileage of the move and the size of your home.
Number of Movers: Hourly rates can range from $25 to $50 for one or two movers, increasing to $100 to $200 for a team of four or more.
Services: Additional services like packing, unpacking, and storage will add to the cost.
Specialty Items: Moving large or delicate items such as pianos, vehicles, or large aquariums incurs extra charges.
Timing and Access: The time of year, your specific moving date, and the ease of access to your home can affect rates.
Don’t forget to account for other potential costs like moving supplies and tipping your movers.
To move a couch through a narrow doorway, first measure the couch and the doorway to ensure it will fit. For a close fit, you can create more space by removing the interior door; tap out the hinge pins with a nail and shift the door sideways to remove it from its hinges. You may need to turn the couch on its side or move it in separate pieces, if possible. Using furniture sliders can also help you slide the couch through the doorway.
You can ship motorcycles via train, truck, plane, or boat. For trucks, they can be carried on either an open or enclosed trailer. In all cases, the motorcycle will be held down with straps to keep it securely in place. You’ll need to contact the appropriate carrier, shipping company, or moving company for exact details on how to prep and pick up your motorcycle.
It’s vital to transport a gun safe upright. This type of safe is designed to remain upright, and laying it on its back or sides can potentially damage the safe. That’s why it’s essential to ensure you have a moving truck or trailer that can withstand the weight and is high enough to transport it safely.
The easiest way to move a shed is to roll it along a makeshift conveyor belt made of strong PVC pipes and a board. Alternatively, hiring professional movers who move sheds makes your shed-moving project as simple as making a call and writing a check.
