Your Questions, Answered

Can I receive a detailed invoice for my move?

Absolutely. After our on-site or virtual assessment, we provide a transparent, line-item invoice outlining every agreed-upon service. No hidden fees—just clear documentation for your records.


How far in advance should I book?

Peak seasons fill quickly, so we suggest contacting us 4–6 weeks before your preferred date. However, our logistics team can often accommodate expedited timelines—reach out and we’ll explore all options.


How much do you charge?

We charge a hourly rate with our truck fee. Rates depend on the crew size and day of the week, but everything is upfront — no hidden fees.


What’s included in the price?

Our rate includes the Truck, Movers, Fuel, Mileage, moving pads, shrink wrap, tools, and basic protection for you’re furniture. You don’t pay extra for the essentials — we bring everything needed to get the job done safely.


Are there any extra fees?

Only for special situations:

  • Heavy items (safes, pianos, treadmills)

  • Long walks over 100 ft

  • Third‑floor walk‑ups

  • Same‑day or emergency moves

We tell you upfront before the job starts so there are no surprises.
