Why Hire a Moving Company?

When moving from the home you’ve lived in for many years, it’s hard to know where to start in the moving process. To start, you may want to organize all your “important” items in one area so they don’t get lost.
Then, pack and label each of your boxes carefully so you know exactly what’s in each one, making the unpacking process faster. After all this, which is mentally exhausting enough, comes the physically exhausting part; loading up the moving truck. Multiple pieces of furniture, countless boxes and endless trips up and down stairs can be a daunting task for anybody to handle on their own. This is where hiring a professional moving company comes into play.
Cost Efficient and Organized Moving
If you think moving on your own will save you more money, think again.
The physical and mental demand for a big move is high. A lot of preparation is needed, from planning to execution. Asking friends/family isn’t always the best course of action, as they are not trained and could pose an insurance liability. When you hire professionals, they take care of all the things that you might not have even thought of, allowing you to keep your focus where it belongs. Not only will you save time and effort when you hire experts, they can also ensure the safe moving of equipment and belongings. Moving and relocating fragile furniture and equipment is a skill that is not easily mastered. Expert movers know how to move safely and easily, protecting your valued posessions. They also implement systems to make sure everything is organized and accessible to make sure nothing will be lost or damaged. Without professionals, you would have to secure your transportation vehicle on your own, often running into the inconvenience of rental companies not having available trucks on the date(s) you need it. But reliable commercial movers provide for all your moving needs – from packing supplies to crates and trucks. They provide carts for moving heavy items in and out, and they’re efficiency ensures you won’t have to lift a finger.


Protect Your Belongings and Your Peace of Mind
One of the main reasons to hire a moving company is that they know what they are doing. They are the experts who know how to safely move heavy furniture and they know to best pack a truck in order to limit the possibility of damaging your belongings. Not only are they the experts, but moving companies offer you other services that can make a difference in your moving experience.
A common offering includes packing and unpacking services. This can save a lot time since all of your boxes will get packed and unpacked for you. Numerous moving companies offer comprehensive insurance too because although they are the experts, they know that mistakes or issues can arise. If something unforeseen does happen, insurance will give you peace of mind in knowing that any damages will be covered. In addition, qualified drivers can operate moving trucks in an efficient and timely manner to get your belongings safely where they need to go, using the proper equipment that is needed to load and unload your belongings. The moving team is also prepared to disassemble and reassemble your furniture if needed as well.
Speed, Reliability and Flexibility
Professional movers can pack up your entire home in a fraction of the time it would take to do it yourself.
They have the experience and know-how to get the job done quickly and efficiently. Because movers are experienced, they can complete the move much faster than you could on your own. They work as a team to load and unload the truck quickly, so you can get settled into your new home sooner. Moving heavy boxes and furniture can be physically demanding. Hiring movers means you don’t have to do any heavy lifting, which can save your energy and prevent injury. Professional movers understand the importance of sticking to a schedule. They will arrive on time and work efficiently to ensure your move goes smoothly. Reputable moving companies are accountable for your belongings. This means that if anything gets damaged during the move, the company will take responsibility and compensate you for the loss. With a professional moving company, you get a one-stop service for all your moving needs. From packing supplies to transportation, everything is taken care of. Many moving companies offer flexible scheduling to accommodate your needs. Whether you need to move on a weekend or during a holiday, movers can often work around your schedule.


Moving can be a challenging and stressful experience, but it doesn’t have to be. Hiring a professional moving company offers many benefits that can make your move easier, faster, and safer. With their experience, expertise, and proper equipment, professional movers can handle every aspect of your move, from packing to transportation. They offer reliable and accountable service, giving you peace of mind and reducing your stress. Plus, with customizable moving services, insurance protection, and a cost-effective approach, professional movers provide a convenient solution for your move. Whether you’re moving across town or across the country, hiring a professional moving company can help you make a smooth transition to your new home.

With more than 15 years of experience in the moving industry, we have the expertise necessary to handle any move situation. From in-home moving and business moves to packing services, and storage solutions – we are able to take the stress out of your move and help you safely relocate your items.
Generally, we can give you an estimate over the phone. However, in some cases, we may need to visit your home in person to give you an accurate quote. If you answer yes to any of the following questions, you may need an in-home estimate:
- Is your home 1,500 square feet or larger?
- Do you have any large or bulky items (e.g., safes or pianos) that may be difficult to move safely and securely?
- Does your home have any narrow hallways, doorways, or stairways that furniture cannot fit through?
As far as timing your move, it’s best to book our moving services 2-3 weeks in advance to make sure we can get you on our schedule.
Our services are priced on an hourly basis, based on the amount of movers and hours required to complete your move. Please contact us for details and a quote for your service.
- Number of flights of stairs.
- Distance of walk from the truck to the load or unload location.
- The amount of time it takes to load and unload your items.
- Driving time from the load to the unload location.
The Estate Pros accept cash, debit/credit, checks, Zelle & Venmo.
Although tips are never expected they are sincerely appreciated, our teams are allowed to accept tips should our customers feel inclined for the hard work they received.
In terms of what to tip our movers, we encourage customers to tip whatever they are comfortable with and what they feel is necessary for the job that was completed.
Although our move teams do everything they can to prevent damage — including padding and stretch wrapping furniture and other delicate pieces, unfortunately damage can still occur.
If during your move, or following your move, you notice damage to an item, your home, or business, we ask that you contact the Estate Pros as soon as possible with information to begin the claims process. We will explain our process and next steps for working toward a resolution.
In some cases, we may request photos of the damage. Please contact us should you have any questions regarding our process or should you need to file a claim.
