Initial Consultation and Planning

The foundation of a successful move begins with thorough planning. During your initial consultation, our moving specialists will assess your specific requirements, taking into account factors such as the size of your current home, the volume of belongings, and any special items requiring extra attention. This detailed evaluation allows us to provide you with an accurate estimate and develop a comprehensive moving strategy tailored to your needs.

Furniture Protection and Handling

Your furniture represents both a significant investment and often holds sentimental value.

For upholstered furniture, we use custom-fitted plastic covers to protect against dirt and moisture. Wooden furniture receives additional padding at corners and edges, and all items are secured with professional-grade moving blankets and straps. Our team is also trained in proper disassembly and reassembly techniques for common furniture items, ensuring everything is put back together correctly at your new home.
