FAQ
Common service questions
What should I include in my first moving request?
Provide both addresses, a preferred date or date range, an inventory, stairs or elevators, walking distance, parking limits, oversized items, packing needs and any building reservation or insurance requirements.
Does sending a request reserve a moving date?
No. Treat an inquiry or estimate request as a planning step unless a carrier separately confirms availability, terms and booking requirements in writing.
How should I compare written estimates?
Compare the same inventory and work scope. Review whether each estimate is binding, non-binding or hourly, then examine minimum time, travel charges, valuation options and possible fees.
