Q: How heavy is a treadmill?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;s make and model to determine its exact weight before attempting to move it.</p></div>

Q: What’s included in a professional movers' cost?

• <div><p>Professional movers take care of safely loading, transporting, and unloading all of your belongings. Many movers also offer specialty pricing for whole-house packing, furniture disassembly, relocating fragile items, and more. You&rsquo;ll benefit from having a moving team take care of your move quickly and efficiently.</p></div>

Q: What do movers load first?

• <div><p>When loading a moving truck, the general rule is to load the heaviest and largest items first to create a stable base at the front of the truck, which helps balance the weight. You can start with large furniture like sofas, beds, mattresses, and tables to form a solid foundation, or begin by placing your heaviest boxes against the truck's walls to create a base layer. After the base is set, continue loading other large items like appliances and square furniture. Lighter and smaller objects, including most of your boxes, should be loaded last. They can be packed into gaps, around, and on top of the heavier items to maximize space. Following this order makes unloading easier and helps prevent damage to your belongings.</p></div>

Q: Do I need insurance for my moving pod?

• <div><p>Yes, you need insurance for a moving pod. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/moving-insurance-worth-cost.htm">Moving insurance is worth the cost</a> because it can help pay to replace any damaged or destroyed items during the move. Without insurance, you&rsquo;d be on the hook to pay for those replacements entirely out of pocket. </p></div>

Q: Should you order food for movers?

• <div><p>In most cases, you don&rsquo;t need to order food for movers. They will schedule breaks to eat throughout the day. However, you can provide drinks and snacks in an easy-to-access location for the movers to grab throughout the day. </p></div>

When we first moved in just before the heavy summer rain there were places in the wall where water was coming in with the force almost of a pressure washer. Bill and his team were here for one day and the sump pump he installed is keeping everything nice and dry, no water on the floor.

"Alll My Sons Moving was A+ from start to finish. The "support" folks were courteous, friendly and thorough in ensuring they had all the information needed to make "moving day" a success. The 2 movers, however, were definitely the stars!!! They arrived on time, reviewed everything to be moved to 2 different locations then went to work loading their truck. Everything was moved to the first location and set up as needed. Delivery to the second location was more challenging because of the topography, but these great guys proceeded move everything here with an excellent positive attitude."
