How do I pick the right mover?

Create a list of local moving companies you plan to research.Get a quote from each mover. Make sure to get moving quotes directly from a company’s official website or phone number. Working with movers directly cuts out any middlemen and will result in the lowest price.Get a feel for each moving company’s reputation by reading reviews from real customers.Ask whether each company is licensed and how they’re insured.Determine how each mover’s schedule works. Is your delivery date guaranteed? Will the same person who loads up your belongings transport and unload them as well?Make sure you’re comfortable with how each mover charges, their cancellation policy, and whether or not a deposit is required.Choose whichever company best fits your move; everyone’s needs are different.

Should I hire movers or move myself?

This depends on your personal situation. Hiring professionals like TWO MEN AND A TRUCK ensures your entire move is taken care of by our teams, while moving yourself means you’ll be responsible for doing the heavy lifting, renting a truck, finding help, and more. You can see more about the differences between moving yourself and hiring professional movers here.

What items can TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® not move?

Please consult with your TWO MEN AND A TRUCK franchise for a full list of items that can’t be moved.

When do I need an in-home moving estimate?

Generally, moving companies can give you an estimate over the phone. In some cases, movers may need to visit your home in person to give you an accurate quote. If you answer yes to any of the following questions, you may need an in-home estimate:Is your home 1,500 square feet or larger?Do you have any large or bulky items (e.g., safes or pianos) that may be difficult to move safely and securely?Does your home have any narrow hallways, doorways, or stairways that furniture cannot fit through?Will movers have difficulty parking a 26 ft. truck close to your home?Are you moving out of state?

When is the best time to book a move?

The best time to book your upcoming move is at least one month before your desired moving date. Moving schedules fill up fast, especially during the spring and summer months, so you’ll want to give yourself enough time to land on your local franchise’s schedule with your preferred move date.

This was my third time using two men and truck to move. The boys worked hard. I had a lot of stuff to move and was a bit last minute notice. Didn’t have as much time to pack everything. But I’m glad they were able to help me move.

The two gentlemen who moved me were truly exceptional. They used great care, got everything moved and placed just as I wanted it, and were extremely polite. I had water and cookies for them but they just kept working. It was a very hot day so I made them take a few minutes to cool off. I will only use Two Men and a Truck for my moves.
Thank you!

The move went very smoothly. At first the truck had broken down and the mover’s had to lease a truck but that wasn’t the mover’s fault. Brandon in the office was very helpful. The two mover’s were wonderful. Noah & Deshawn. Great job by the movers. Would use again.

Response

Thank you so much for your kind words and understanding! We're glad to hear that, despite the initial hiccup with the truck, your move went smoothly. Brandon will be happy to know his support made a difference, and we'll be sure to pass along your praise to Noah and Deshawn, they’ll appreciate the recognition for a job well done. We’re grateful for your trust and look forward to helping you again in the future!
