The Moving Process

Take a look at the steps you can rely on us taking:

FREE Ballpark Pricing

We’ll tell you roughly what the price of your move will be when you contact us initially and we’ve evaluated the sorts of moving services necessary to get you from here to “there.” Obviously, this ballpark estimate may rise or fall, depending on the services you finally opt for.

The Home Survey

Our goal – in every matter – is to accommodate your needs and work around your schedule. That’s why we give you two estimating options. Choose the one you find most useful:

1. In-Home Consultation. One of our expert estimators meets with you at your home to talk about your move and perform a full-house inventory of the possessions you’ll need transported.
2. Video Inventory. You’ll connect with our estimator via your mobile phone and record a video of yourself conducting a walk-through of your home as you point out what has to be moved. It’s the leading edge in technological convenience!

The Written Estimate

After initially talking with you, taking the move options you’ve selected into consideration, and analyzing the results of your Home Survey, we present you with a written estimate that more precisely nails down the financial outlay required for your long-distance move.

• the cost of the move,
• safety and insurance issues,

That’s what your Move Concierge is for – to present you with answers, keep you fully apprised of what’s happening all during the move process, and keep that whole procedure going smoothly, quickly, and seamlessly.

The Pre-Move Confirmation

As your move date approaches, we get hold of you by phone or email to affirm it, ensuring that all dates, times, locations, and other essentials are still okay by you. This also serves to bolster your confidence that we’ll be on hand and ready to go when the time finally does arrive.
