If I need the actual move to go more quickly can I get extra movers?

We assign a team of movers based on the size of the apartment or office. We have found that two movers for a small to average size apartment and three movers for large four to five bedroom home is the perfect amount of labor for a standard residential move. In order to keep our rates competitive, we need to keep the teams size down to two or three movers per move. Our staff is highly experienced and well equipped to move your possessions at a rapid pace.

I have a freezer full of food in my kitchen. Can it go on the moving truck?

Food does not hold up well during a move. It's a good idea to plan ahead and eat all the stored food in your home before moving day. It's better to start out fresh in a new home and make sure the refrigerator is plugged in and running properly.
