FAQ

Moving services are pre-planned and depending on the time of the year, some companies will book out 4-8 weeks in advance. For residential moves, it is best to reach out at least 30-60 days prior to your desired move date. For commercial moves we recommend reaching out 3-6 months in advance.

There are a number of different variables that influence the price of your move. Contrary to popular belief, you are not charged per mile or per pound on local (intrastate) moves (although they are key contributing factors). The core of pricing when moving locally is conducted hourly. For local moves we offer non-binding rates, binding and not to exceed rates, and binding and guaranteed rates. For long distance moves we offer binding and guaranteed rates.

All furniture is wrapped and packaged in-home prior to loading. This means that each item will be covered in a furniture pad, the pad is taped on to secure it tightly, and then it is shrink wrapped to make sure that it is fully sealed.

Yes! All items are wrapped, packaged, and sealed in-home, prior to removal. Small loose items, soft materials, linens, and clothing can all be left inside structurally sound furniture. We do however recommend emptying items that could cause harm to the furniture item or our staff (firearms, weights, chemicals, etc.). We also recommend emptying out antiques or press-wood items that may not be structurally sound or stable.

We take all precautionary measures to make sure that we not only protect your furniture, but also your home. On move day, we provide a combination of doorjamb protectors, neoprene floor-runners, hand-rail covers, door covers, and furniture pads to ensure that your home is left in the condition that we found it in.

We have a climate-controlled storage facility located in North Raleigh. Like most moving companies, we use what is known as a “storage-vault” to store contents for short and long-term periods of time. Storage vaults are 7’x5’x7’ and generally hold about 1000lbs or a standard room of furniture. We bring our storage containers to your home, load directly into these containers and then forklift and stack them in our secured facility. When your contents are ready for delivery, they are forklifted back onto our trucks and delivered directly to your new home and unloaded by our professional moving crews.

Storage vaults are forklifted, stacked, and sealed in our facility. If you will need frequent access to your household contents, we recommend renting a self-storage facility. This way you will have your own keys to the facility/units so can come and go as you please.

We are licensed to conduct both intrastate and interstate moves. Intrastate moves are conducted locally in the state of North Carolina, which is regulated by the North Carolina Utilities Commission.
