"I needed to have a piano moved from one house to another. I was a little anxious about this because it was a 50+ year old player piano, very heavy and needed to go down a set of steps. When I requested an estimate, Ted responded back quickly. The price was so much less than I expected. Ted was very accommodating to my schedule. The gentlemen were on time, very professional and handled my piano with great care. I would definitely hire them again should the need arise."

"This was the most coordinated and professional move I’ve ever experienced. Working with Jose Was great, he made sure that I was informed about every step of the move and stuck to the initial estimate. Items were securely, packed, and movers were cautious with any larger fragile items. Would not hesitate to use their services again in the future."

"We used Call The Movers on advice of family members who had used them for moves in the past. I've moved throughout the DMV area 3 separate times and I can honestly say that Call The Movers made this the easiest, most efficient, stress-free move I've ever had. Our crew was a MACHINE - they had completed both the move out from our old apartment and the move in to our new home in under 4 hours. We were so pleased at how efficient and FAST this move went. My only regret is not hiring them for packing services as well, which I will absolutely recommend you do to make the move even easier. We are so pleased with our moving experience with Call The Movers that we won't use anyone else. 10/10 experience and would absolutely call them again in a heartbeat; they are well worth the money and the time you save!"

"Micheal Brooks was very through and patience in explaining the moving process to me. We was willing to work within my budget to complete the moving process. The driver of the moving truck was very polite and patience. I would highly recommend CarMack moving services to others. Ollie La Rue"

"We heard of all service moving from a family members’ recommendation. Move went very smoothly! Nathaniel, SeaBass and Dominic really took care of our furniture, everything was neatly wrapped up so nothing would get damaged. Would hire again!"

"I called Campbell Moving and set up an appointment for a representative to come by our house two days later to provide us with an estimate for a multi-stage move. I needed some furniture moved into storage almost immediately, and other furniture would be moved into another residence several weeks in the future. The estimate was very detailed and I thought it was very reasonable so I schedule the first move for the following week. Joel and Juan showed up right on time and they meticulously padded and packed all of our furniture going into storage. They moved the furniture into the truck quickly and efficiently, and then travelled 2.5 hours to our storage unit. They loaded up the storage unit and carefully organized the furniture to maximize the use of the space within the storage unit and also facilitate the relocation of some furniture to an apartment while our new home is being built. Every aspect of our initial move went flawlessly! The initial meeting for an estimate was scheduled at our convenience and on short-notice. The move was also scheduled on very short notice to accommodate our schedule. Our furniture was padded and wrapped to make sure that no damage would occur. The packing of the truck went quickly and smoothly as did the unpacking at our storage unit. Joel and Juan were polite and professional throughout the day. I couldn't be more pleased with the service we received from Campbell Moving during our initial move, and I'm confident that we will receive the same level of service during the second phase of our move. Based on my experience, I very highly recommend Campbell Moving!!"

"I contacted American Moving based on the reviews here on Angies List; they were one of three companies I contacted. Mike came out to the house to look things over and talk through the details of my move requirements; most of the bids were all virtual, this personal touch did make a difference. The price he quoted ended up being right in the middle of the other bids and I went with them. Moving day was scheduled on a day that was calling for TERRIBLE weather and Mike was able to accommodate my request to move the date up by a day which was perfect. The movers were super punctual, super professional and so helpful as some of the "where to put things" decisions were not all worked out. They were patient and also so pleasant to work with. It took 10 hours for the entire move and it went flawlessly in my opinion. I would use American Moving & Storage again and would highly recommend them."

"Went great. 2 guys and a huge truck moved items from one townhouse to another. 15 minutes to load, 10 minutes to unload. Perhaps 45 minutes at most. The huge truck arrived early and I was ready. Great job'"

"Movers were extremely professional and made the move a breeze. They handled my items with great care and ensured that things were put in places I wanted. Great value and well worth not having to go through a stressful move myself. Would highly recommend Nation Capital Moving!"

Moving questions, answered by experts

If you’re moving locally, pack up your condiments in a cooler and move them in your car or moving truck so you can put them in the fridge as soon as you arrive at your new place. For long-distance moves, use up or empty out all opened condiments or give them to your neighbors. Pack unopened condiments in a box or give them away if you don’t want to move them.

There are several effective ways to save money when hiring a moving company, primarily by handling some tasks yourself and being strategic with scheduling. Consider these methods:

  • Pack Your Own Belongings: You can significantly reduce costs by packing and protecting your items yourself. This includes wrapping delicate items, organizing them into boxes, and taping the boxes closed. You can use towels, clothes, and suitcases to pack belongings and protect breakables.

  • Provide Your Own Materials: Source free packing materials from friends and family, or reuse boxes and bubble wrap from a previous move.

  • Schedule Strategically: Book your move well in advance. Rates are often lower if you schedule your move on a weekday during the off-season, which typically runs from October through April.

  • Compare Quotes: Get moving quotes from at least three professional movers in your area. This allows you to compare services and choose the best value.

  • Ask for Discounts: Inquire if the moving company offers any special coupons or deals.

  • Purchase Moving Insurance: Protect your investment by purchasing moving insurance, especially for expensive or antique belongings.

  • Divide the Labor: While you can save money by packing, it's wise to leave the more dangerous and physically demanding work—like loading, unloading, and moving heavy furniture—to the professionals.

Start by removing any obstacles in the moving path, such as side tables, lamps, or other furniture. If your couch has legs, unscrew them. Measure the couch and the stairway to ensure you have enough room; if it seems unlikely, examine the shape and size of the couch and decide whether it might fit better up the stairway and through doorways on its side, held diagonally, or moved in an upright position.

Consider putting the sofa on a dolly to go up the stairs. It should be able to fit upright on a standard dolly with wheels. You’ll still need to lift the dolly—with the couch on it—up the stairs, but it will reduce the physical strain. The person holding the dolly should pull the couch up, while the helper should be on the other side, keeping the couch secure and steady.

If you don’t have a dolly, the person in front should lift the couch slightly higher than the person in the back to create more stability. The person in the back should also be the stronger mover, as most of the weight will be distributed there.

Moving straps like forearm or shoulder straps can usually support up to 800 pounds, sometimes more with specialized straps. However, that doesn’t mean that one person can always lift that much weight, just that the straps are rated for that amount. For example, some straps require two people working together to balance the weight of the heavy item.

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.
