* Packing services use the same hourly rates as moving.

Final pricing depends on additional factors, which may affect move time and cost.

What Can Add Time to Your Move?

Certain conditions may increase move time by 10-20%:

Readiness — Not Ready? No Problem, Move Takes Longer.

The more organized and packed you are (If we are not packing), the faster the move. If items aren't boxed, labeled, or prepped, additional time may be needed for packing, disassembly, or organizing.

Oversized or Specialty Items

Pianos, safes, pool tables, and other heavy or delicate items require extra handling.

Stairs, Elevators & Long Walks

Extra flights of stairs, long carries, or waiting for an elevator can slow the process.

Difficult Parking or Steep Driveways

Limited access may require additional loading strategies.

Multiple Trips Required

If everything doesn't fit in one truckload, additional time is needed for return trips.

Building Restrictions

HOA rules, parking permits, and move-in time restrictions may cause delays.

Weather Conditions

Rain, extreme heat, or ice can impact loading and unloading times.

Last-Minute Changes

Adding services, additional items, or rearranging plans mid-move can extend the process.

Specific Placement & On-Site Rearranging

If rugs need to be placed under couches, furniture needs to be lined up with precision, or items require detailed positioning and reorganization, extra time may be necessary to ensure everything is set exactly how you want it.
