Downsizing, moving to a retirement community, or to an assisted living facility can be a sensitive time. Life moments like this can be stressful and scary for all those involved, which is why we always strive to do all the work for you and communicate clearly throughout the entire moving process.
From your first freshman move to your post-graduation life, let us help you with your college moves! Dorms can be small with tight turns and multiple flights of stairs. We can do all the heavy-lifting and difficult navigation with your belongings for you – just meet us there. Need to store your things between semesters? We can easily move everything into your storage unit for you.
Did you just purchase a theater-style, double rocker, or couch-o-lounger that weighs more than a soccer team and is way too big to stuff into your Honda? Not sure how you’re going to get that swing-set you purchased home? Call us! We can go directly to the store and pick up your purchase for you. We have everything needed to get the job safely and quickly.
Similar to our residential delivery service, we can pick up and deliver any large office furniture or other heavy items directly to you. As a full-service mover, we have all the necessary tools and lifting equipment needed to make the move safely and quickly. We will even pad and stretch wrap everything for free as a part of our service! Does your customer need delivery? Let us help for a low, hourly-rate with no hidden fees and have you looking like a hero.
Working with realtors and home staging companies is one of the specialized services we offer. We have experience with clearing out houses, condominiums, apartments, and commercial spaces. We can also assist with staging homes by picking up and delivering furniture from a warehouse or storage unit to the staging location, then come back and take everything back again. We take every precaution, including padding, stretch wrap, and floor runners to ensure a damage-free service.
Preparing for a party, conference, or another big event? On-site or off, we can help with setting up for the big day. Call us to move your big items, furniture, or boxed supplies.
In our rapidly growing area, people are constantly moving in and out of rental properties. We help minimize the turnover time of an available rental unit by working with property management companies to assist with additions or removal of appliances, old furniture, and bulk items to rental properties.
