"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!"

"American Moving was very responsive and professional. They showed up on time the day of the scheduled day and carefully moved my furniture and belongs. The workers were very cordial and very understanding of the uncertainty on my part where the pieces of furniture would fit. They placed furniture and boxes where we asked. The experience from the time I contacted them until my household was relocated was excellent."

"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!"

"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!"

"This was a challenging move because the timetable was fluid, the starting hospital was doing substantial renovations including around the loading dock, there are numerous security barriers, the contents were transported from one to two offices and the property being moved was atypical. GJ Moving just smiled, packed it all up and moved the stuff. They were ahead of schedule and under budget at the end."

"I was referred to this business by a co-worker who has used Eastwind for multiple moves. Mark the owner handled all of the scheduling and worked both of our moves. For the first move (apartment to storage) we booked a three man team and four showed up - the owner explained that they wanted to finish quickly due to the bad weather (cold and snowing) and having a job in a more rural location in the afternoon. We were ok with this reasoning but I would have appreciated a heads-up before the 4th person arrived. They worked quickly, often carrying 2 boxes at a time. For the second move (storage to townhouse) scheduling was a bit of a challenge on our end due to poor communication from our builder. Mark was very understanding and helpful even though we had to reschedule our original appointment (late Friday afternoon) on short notice due to closing being cancelled. The move itself went smoothly. Through both of the moves Mark and his team were polite and respectful of our belongings. They worked with a sense of urgency that is often missing from hourly work. I have already referred them to my local relatives and I would use them again without hesitation.

Moving questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally possible to move a stair lift to another home, but the feasibility depends on the type of lift. Straight stair lifts are much simpler to move and can usually be reinstalled on other straight staircases with professional help. Curved stair lifts, however, are custom-built for a specific stairway. Because each rail is designed to fit the unique curves of the original staircase, it is unlikely to work in a new home. Moving a curved lift can be costly and challenging, and you may need to sell or remove the old unit and install a new one at your new location.

The number of boxes you need to move depends on the size of their house and whether your style is minimalist or maximalist. However, on average, most people need around 60 boxes to move. It’s essential to pick the correct box sizes to ensure efficient packing.

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.

How long it takes movers to move cross-country depends on location, travel route, weather, and the moving company's schedule. Typically, a cross-country move can take 7 to 14 days. Always check with your mover for the most accurate estimate tailored to your situation.

To prepare furniture for moving, detach furniture legs if possible. If the legs must stay on, wrap them with foam wrap or taped blankets to help prevent damage. You can also buy dedicated moving “socks” for furniture legs.
