Generally speaking we aim to discuss all possible surcharges prior to the move, but inquiring all pertaining details from you. For example heavy and bulky items exceeding 300lbs on a flat surface (pianos, gun safes, treadmills, etc.) will most likely be subject to a heavy item fee. Additionally, we might assess extra fees for bulky furniture that is not movable via stairs or elevator, and will need hoisting services via balcony. Furthermore, standard hourly rates do not include packing materials such as regular boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap, etc., and we would like to know if you need packing services ahead of time. Please provide as much information as possible about your move, so we can review and inform you if any extra fees are applicable.

This is by far the most frequent question we receive. Many factors influence the final cost, such as amount and complexity of furniture, driving distance, presence of stairs of long-walking, furniture protection desired, etc., and thus we do not guarantee any specific numbers.

Occasionally, if you have assembled furniture in a room and it cannot fit through the doorway, the movers will determine the disassembly process and make necessary preparations for transport.

Absolutely! Sufficient parking and convenient access are crucial factors that can greatly impact the work process and pricing.

It's advisable to check with your managers regarding any such requirements.
