MOVING FAQ

Below, you can find an expansive selection of moving frequently asked questions and tips to help you in your moving process.

  • When is the best time to move?
    The busiest times for moving companies are during the summer months, taking place roughly between May 15 - September 15. Near the ends of these months, the volume of shipments is extremely heavy—this tends to be the case for all professional relocation and moving companies. It’s important to take all factors into consideration when deciding on the best time for you to move. If you have some flexibility in your schedule, providing the moving company with a five-day window for loading your shipment can be greatly beneficial. This will allow the individuals who schedule your drivers and moving crew greater flexibility when scheduling your move. If possible, try to be flexible with your arrival time frame as well—keep in mind that you most likely are not the only shipment the truck is currently moving. Offering a flexible time frame can make a world of difference, and make your entire process of moving much easier.
  • Why should I hire a professional mover?
    Hiring a professional mover delivers exceptional value on a day that can otherwise be very stressful. Moving can be both emotionally and physically draining, and handling delicate or bulky items with care requires specific moving skills. We highly recommend turning to professionals for this, as you would for many of your households needs, such as plumbing and electricity.

  • How much will my local or long distance move cost?
    We base an estimate for a move on an flat rate, and this price will never change. Handling moves on flat rates is something we pride ourselves in, and our clients love knowing that we aren't price gauging or even factoring in the mileage of moves. We also gaurentee to have the lowerst pricing in the State of Texas, because we price-match, while maintaining our promise of proving all moving tools and materials at no additonal charge.

  • I want to do some packing and moving before the movers arrive. What areas would be most helpful?
    We offer packing services also, but if you'd like to start on your own, preparing smaller items is most helpful to our team and can later be moved very quickly by our professional movers.
  • I have some items that I’d like to keep, but they won’t fit in my new home. Should I store them?"
    Yes! We offers full service storage facilities in addition to our high quality moving services. If your items do not fit in your new home, but you are only living there only for a finite period of time and have plans to move to a larger home, use of our storage facilities is a convenient, safe option. Ask your move coordinator for more details about this service.
  • What can I do to ensure that my belongings end up in the correct room during the move?
    Choose a simple labeling system (i.e. MBR for Master Bedroom) and make sure all of your boxes are clearly marked. Boxes should be labeled on the top and three sides. Your movers will work closely with you at the destination to make sure everything ends up where you want it.
