"Four (4) movers arrived within the promised timeframe and immediately set to work readying my baby grand piano for the move. The workers were efficient, professional, and handled my piano with care. I was impressed with how well the workers performed their job as a team, especially when negotiating several steps and setting up the piano in my new place."

"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!"

"The men were great: prompt, prepared and efficient.  We had hoped to get the move done in two hours and they made that possible. They wrapped all the furniture in protective plastic wrap and nothing was damaged in the move.  The logistics of the move required dispersing the furniture etc. at two locations.  The first load went to my new residence and they quickly deposited the furniture in the appropriate places with little effort.  The rest went to a storage unit and that went smoothly as well: they contributed intelligently as to how to best stack the boxes and make the best use of the space.  We were especially pleased that the move only took two hours per the initial agreement with the moving company.  We would definitely use them again in the future.

"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."

"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

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.

No, homeowners insurance does not typically cover moving expenses. Homeowners insurance provides coverage and pay-outs if you experience damage to the home you currently live in. You’ll need to save separately for moving expenses like hiring movers, renting a tow truck, or shipping your belongings.

Building a house is generally more expensive upfront than moving an existing one. However, the total cost depends on factors such as location, size, materials, labor, and permits. Moving a house can incur significant expenses for transportation, permits, site preparation, and renovations. On the other hand, building a new house allows for customization and may have lower long-term maintenance costs.

The best way to pack mirrors is to use specially padded cartons or boxes made for mirrors. Be sure to thoroughly wrap the fragile mirror in padded paper or bubble wrap before sliding it into its box. That way, there’s a protective barrier in between the mirror and the box. Then, fill in any gaps with crumpled paper or additional packing materials.

At the low end, a simple consumer treadmill may weigh around 200 pounds. At the high end, large treadmills made for gym use with lots of bells and whistles can weigh up to 500 pounds. Research your treadmill’s make and model to determine its exact weight before attempting to move it.
