"My move was from Maryland to New York, and I had an excellent experience with Movers On The Way. The crew arrived on time, packed all of my furniture and fragile items with great care, and made sure everything was well protected throughout the move. They also took extra steps to protect both homes by covering the hardwood floors with floor runners and protecting the carpet during the moving process. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and hard work made the entire move smooth and stress-free. I truly appreciate the way Movers On The Way handled my move and would definitely recommend them to all of my friends and family. Thank you for a job well done!"

"Carmack Moving did a superb job with my recent move in Bethesda, MD. From the quote process at the beginning through to move day itself, everything was handled in a professional, friendly, and efficient manner. I highly recommend the Carmack team! —Bill DuB Bethesda, MD Feb. 2023"

"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."

"Julia and Viktor in the office and especially Tate, Enrique, and Cesar, the moving crew, were so very helpful and efficient. They made moving day so easy for me! During the entire process, from getting a quote to paying the invoice, they were so patient with hiccups! Highly, highly recommended!"

"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."

"I was so impressed with Red Carpet Moving when I moved. I had an excessive amount of furniture, boxes and clothes to move and they handled all of it exceptionally. They were professional, knowledgeable, and efficient. They eliminated my stress about moving and I was able to relax the day of move due to their vigilance. I would definitely use them again in the future and I also recommend them to my family and friends."

"Moving is one of those experiences where the company you choose can really make or break your sanity. Nation Capital Moving is extremely responsive, had the best rates out of what I scoped around the area, and very flexible throughout the entire process. I had the lucky opportunity to move during the pandemic and was grateful to hear that they allow one rescheduling for free before charging any fees. The day of, the movers showed up early. So early in fact that we weren't ready for them yet, and they were happy to wait until we were ready and didn't start the time until we signed the initial paperwork. The three guys were quick and also courteous, and made things super hassle-free for us. I highly recommend this company for any moves and I would absolutely do business with them again in the future. And sorry for the late review my bad."

Moving FAQs, answered by experts

For a long trip, it is less expensive to schedule a one-way rental since you're driving fewer miles. Plus, it's usually not feasible to move across the country and then drive the vehicle back to where you got it. However, a round-trip option makes more sense if you're moving in town.

Unscrew and remove furniture legs if possible. If it’s not possible, then run the straps parallel on the inner side of the furniture legs. Never put your straps on the outer side of legs where they can easily slip off.

Gym equipment can be heavy, so it’s best to transport it using a furniture dolly. When dealing with treadmills, weight machines, or other bulky items, hiring professional movers or roping in some friends and renting a moving van makes sense.

Traveling with your automobile over short distances when moving is typically less expensive than shipping it with a transport company. However, consumers start to break even at around 500 miles. It's typically less costly and worth shipping your car with a professional transport company if the distance you're going exceeds 500 miles.

When planning an out-of-state move, you should aim to save enough money to cover at least two to three months of living expenses, including rent, food, utilities, and transportation. Ideally, saving for six months or more is best, especially if you don't have a job lined up. You also need to budget for the transition costs, such as a moving vehicle rental, hiring movers, and packing materials. Cross-country moves typically cost between $2,400 and $6,860. You can calculate your estimated moving costs in advance based on factors like distance, weight, and the number of bedrooms.
