"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."

"The move went so smoothly and fast!! The guys wrapped up all of our furniture, and electronics so nothing would break or get dinged. The 3stoey townhouse we moved from was very narrow, filled with wall to wall furniture and at least 300 boxes. They moved like magic and had our whole house empty in record time! When we arrived at the new house, they were already here and ready to go! It was so comforting to know that they really cared about making sure all furniture was in the correct places. We had a huge heavy desk, but they got it upstairs without breaking it, the walls or themselves! I appreciated how upfront and honest they were regarding time and cost, no hidden miscellaneous fees as with some of the other moving companies. From the initial scoping call to the confirmation phone call , then when they had arrived, and again when they were done. We've had other movers where they cursed in front of our kids, left trash on the lawns, and in the house, from either their drinks or food, broke various fixtures from furniture and never called our attention to it. I'm so elated to report that this is absolutely not the case with this magnificent team! They worked so hard and well together, cleaned up after themselves and then some, and were nice to my kids. That really means a lot to me. One of our desks had a foot that came off, not only did they let us know about it but they also fixed it! Amazing, reliable and honest. I will be using them again and you should too!"

"Collegiate Movers did a great job! We moved to a 3rd floor apartment with extra stairs just to get to the 1st floor. Not once did they complain, not even about the heat! They were professional and efficient completing the move in 2 hours which was impressive going up those stairs. I was expecting it to take longer than it did because of the weather (about 90 that day), but they stayed right in the quoted amount of time. Great job! I would definitely hire them again."

"Nationwide made my moving experience easy. This is my third time moving cross country. The other two times prior were a disaster. Nationwide Moving really came through. Handle my belongings with care. Very polite crew and stood by their estimate and did not increase my move. I highly recommend."

"I moved to a new apartment with a large wardrobe and heavy furniture. The movers handled everything carefully, wrapping the smaller items in blankets and moving the larger items on dollies. They also took the time to ensure that my electronics and delicate lamps were packed securely. They were truly exceptional in moving things."

Moving questions, answered by experts

The best ways to prepare for movers include decluttering and properly labeling boxes. Decluttering lessens the workload and ensures you are not bringing unwanted items into your new home. Labeling boxes lets movers know which rooms they belong in, reducing confusion when it's time to unpack.

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.

Yes, it is cheaper to move yourself than to hire professional movers. The average DIY move costs $120 to $2,300, while professionals cost $890 to $2,570 on average or up to $12,000 for the longest distances. While you’ll save on the cost of professional labor with a DIY move, you’ll spend more time and energy packing, loading, transporting, unloading, and unpacking.

It’s best to book local movers about three months in advance to ensure your moving date is available, as most of the time, you’ll have a fairly tight window for moving your belongings. When booking your moving date, provide your moving team with as much detailed information as possible to prepare for the big day. Let your movers know an estimate of how many boxes they’ll move, any large or bulky items, number of bedrooms in your current home, the type of moving vehicle, and more.

To prepare for moving a piano, start by documenting its current condition with photos in case of any damage during the move. Secure the piano's lid and wrap the instrument, including its keys and pedals, with bubble wrap and moving blankets for protection. Note that if you have hired professional piano movers, they may handle this step for you.

Next, prepare the space. Measure any tight spaces or doorways to ensure the piano will fit through. Clear a wide path from the piano's location to the exterior door, removing any furniture or obstacles. It is also helpful to prop open doors to make the exit easier.

On moving day, ensure the moving truck can park as close to the exit as possible. For safety, keep children and pets away from the moving area to prevent accidents or distractions.
