Tips for Enjoying a Positive Moving Experience.

  • This is a long day for everyone involved. Consider inviting a friend, neighbor, or family member over for some camaraderie, comfort, and support. And remember to stay hydrated!
  • The silver lining of moving is the opportunity to reorganize and downsize. If you haven’t used an item in the past year, chances are you can part with it.
  • We recommend starting your moving activities between 9 and 10 AM. This timeframe helps us avoid disturbing neighbors, as most gated communities restrict access before 9 AM. Additionally, many of your neighbors are likely out at work or enjoying their day, which minimizes interruptions and prevents us from having to maneuver our trucks repeatedly at apartment complexes.
  • Navigating gas stations with large trucks and city traffic at all hours presents its own set of challenges. We also face potential delays due to construction, weather, or road conditions, as well as possible holdups from morning clients if you’re scheduled for an afternoon move. We kindly ask for your patience during any unforeseen delays; rest assured, we have never missed a scheduled move.
  • We will reach out to confirm your appointment the day before your move and again on the morning we head your way.
  • While it’s not mandatory, providing cold water, snacks, sodas, pizza, sandwiches, cookies, and other treats can create a pleasant atmosphere for everyone involved in the relocation process, especially for larger moves.
  • Allow the movers to work at their own pace, as rushing them can lead to accidents and potential damage.
  • It’s helpful to have yourself or a partner readily available at the front door of your new home to guide where items should be placed. Being present and directing the process helps avoid costly delays and ensures a smoother unloading experience. We need your guidance to make this process efficient; moving items multiple times can turn the day into a drawn-out and frustrating affair.
  • Please ensure all your belongings are packed into small, medium, and large moving boxes or bags by the time moving day arrives. Many people underestimate how much time is consumed by disorganized, loose items when packing around clients who are still finishing up.
  • To make loading efficient, fill your boxes to the brim for optimal stacking in the truck. Boxes can buckle or collapse if they aren’t adequately filled. Don’t worry about the weight; we have dollies to assist with heavy lifting. You can leave your boxes where they are; it takes longer for us to sort through assorted boxes for the right size and weight if they’re not pre-stacked in your home.
  • Please ensure to clearly label your boxes on the top and one side indicating the room they belong to for a smooth and efficient unloading process.
  • Make sure to close your boxes securely and tape them shut properly. Avoid interfolding the cardboard flaps, as this can lead to complications when unloading, causing box flaps to get tangled.
  • If there are no stairs involved, soft (fabric) items may remain in drawers and cabinets.
  • While gratuity is not mandatory, it is certainly appreciated. Movers often rely on tips to supplement their income, and even a $5 tip conveys your gratitude.
  • Take advantage of the opportunity to clean those hard-to-reach areas on your glass and furniture while moving; keep a rag and glass cleaner nearby.
  • Consider allowing an extra day to tidy up your home, business, or apartment for the next occupant.
  • Preemptively removing dust contributes to a smoother moving experience.
  • Remember to turn off your sprinkler system.
  • While we are not insured to have you on our trucks, ramps, or lift gates, you are welcome to help by transporting items to and from the truck during the move, which can save time and money.
  • Reserve a parking spot for the truck using your vehicles the night before your move.
  • Remember to turn off ceiling fans and raise chandeliers.
  • Keeping the air cool will enhance your movers' productivity, so please ensure the A/C is running during this Florida heat.
  • Playing any kind of music can lighten the atmosphere for everyone and help expedite the moving process.
  • If you need to label furniture, vases, paintings, or bags that aren’t being moved, using painter’s tape is a safe tagging method.
  • Please secure your pets, as we want to avoid any accidents, and they would prefer it as well.
  • Designate one bathroom for your movers' use.
  • You are responsible for your own medications, jewelry, and any cable equipment that needs to be returned.
  • Feel free to reach out to our office at any time if you have questions or concerns; we have a system in place to keep your issues confidential while also checking in on the movers simultaneously.
  • We offer comprehensive and partial packing services. Our full packing services are completed the day before your move, while packing for fewer than 30 boxes can be accommodated on the morning of your move.
  • Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we welcome it. Without your input, we cannot enhance our business. It would be unwise to ignore constructive criticism.
  • Rest assured, the owner is actively involved in this company.
  • Weather doesn't pose a problem for us. Rain is a common occurrence during Florida's summers, and we ensure your furniture is properly wrapped to withstand these conditions.
  • Our professional packers will handle EVERYTHING. Please remember to set aside any items such as car keys, clothing, toiletries, and important documents that you may need immediate access to.
  • We do take trash to the city dump.
  • We also accept items for donation.
  • We understand that smoking is a tough habit to break. Our movers have been instructed to smoke well out of the customers' sight and away from the furniture, typically at the front of the truck.
  • We deduct any breaks from the client's bill at the end of the move.
  • If our movers notice any pre-existing damage beyond normal wear and tear, they will inform you before moving the item.
  • Be sure to conduct a final walk-through after loading at the pick-up location so nothing is overlooked. Do the same at your destination to avoid having to move any furniture or boxes after we leave.
  • Additionally, we offer unpacking services.
