While the answer to this question will be different for everybody, we’ve decided to give you a basic idea of how it works!

Studio to small 2 bedrooms- 2 Pros are recommended.

2 bedrooms to 3 bedrooms or smaller sized moves with long walks, stairs, elevators, packing – 3 movers.

3 bedrooms and up – 4 movers will be the best. It’s our most efficient package, you practically get 2 teams with 2 guys, and it makes the move go very fast!

Getting more workers is usually more expensive per hour but you will save money in the long run when everything is complete. At the same time for smaller moves, it makes more sense to have fewer movers and save money

If you are not sure about how many movers you need, we are always here to help! It’s our top priority to ensure you get the most money and time-efficient service.

A bedroom is a special place in our home where we relax after a long day. Personally, there is nothing I enjoy more than morning sleep-ins on a cozy Sunday. Sleep is one of the essential parts of our lives! By improving the quality of our sleep, we enhance the quality of our lives. That’s why picking the right mattress is critical to improving your sleep. It’s also one of the biggest investments because good mattresses are expensive. I recently moved, and one of my first questions was how to move a mattress. How do I keep my investment safe, clean, and protected? Here are some tips I’ve learned while researching the best moving company in the area.

Before the move:

1. Prepare your bedroom, clear out the space, and if you feel handy, take apart your bed ( It will also save you money on the moving process ) 
2. There are different options you can buy ahead of time for Mattress protection, such as plastic covers and mattress bags. You can get them online or in your local Uhaul store or Home Depot. They range from $9 to $40, depending on the quality and size. Make sure you get the right size. Don’t be like me. 
3. Putting the bag on can be challenging and will require two people to do it. I recommend leaving it to the movers. 

Moving Company: 

1. Movers know precisely how to move a mattress. The company I chose also provided plastic wrap free of charge. So when choosing a company, ask about mattress covers. Most companies will offer it for free. 
2. This is how the process looked for me: The movers wrapped the mattress in plastic wrap, hand-carried it to the truck, and placed it on the moving blanket ( to protect it from the dirt ). Then carefully strapped it into the remaining items they already had inside. 

After the move:

1. As a part of the service, movers assembled my bed, unwrapped the mattress, and placed it on the bed. 
2. If you plan to do it yourself, remember that covering your mattress with plastic and padding will help you keep it clean. 

Conclusion:

Using a Moving company saved me a lot of hassle and time. If I were to do it myself, I would bring a friend, buy a plastic bag, rent moving blankets, and choose a first-floor apartment ( Stairs are no joke! ). I hope these tips on how to move a mattress will help you and your mattress during your next move! 

The most important thing is the size. The whole truck is 33ft when the box size is 26ft. Max load: 20,000 lbs. This big truck can fit up to 3-4 bedroom houses, so if you have 1 or 2 bedrooms, you don’t even need to worry about fitting everything!

It comes with all our moving packages, and you don’t have to pay extra. It’s the same size as the biggest Uhaul, Budget, and other rental companies’ most expensive trucks.

Also, it will include 8 Wardrobe boxes, 3 two-wheel dollies, 2 four-wheel dollies, 50 blankets, tools, 2 boxes of shrink wrap, floor runners and everything else you may need to move your furniture safely!

Note: our trucks have ramps to help us load everything, but we do offer trucks with a liftgate as well.

If you are still unsure what truck size you need, please get in touch with us!

Moving services operate differently from most other home services. Moves happen every day, but some days are busier or slower than others. Here are a few Things to consider when you schedule your move to ensure a smooth and cost-effective process. By moving on a weekday during a slower season, you may be able to save extra money. Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays are typically considered to be slower days for moving. Fridays, Mondays, and Sundays are busier, and Saturdays are the busiest day of all due to the high demand. If you have the option, it’s generally best to schedule your move for an afternoon window, as these tend to be more flexible and potentially cheaper.

Most people move at the end of the month due to the majority of leases ending around this time. It’s a good idea to schedule your move a little bit in advance if possible, especially for weekends in the middle of the month. The hardest days to schedule a move are usually at the end of the month on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday morning. Afternoon moves tend to be more flexible, so if you do have to move on one of these days, it may be a good idea to get ready earlier and choose your moving company accordingly.

On the other hand, the easiest days to schedule a move are typically during the first and third weeks of the month on weekdays. It’s usually very easy to schedule a move for these days and you may even be able to find a mover the next day.

Summary:

If you want to save money and have more flexibility with your move, consider scheduling it for a weekday during the first or third week of the month in the afternoon. This will likely give you the best availability and pricing. We hope this information helps make your moving experience smoother. Contact us today to schedule the best day for you!
