To get you started, one of our Moving Specialists will take the details of your move by phone or at an in-home appointment. This allows us to understand what you are moving and give you a guaranteed price for your move.
Get move plan
Every move is different. That’s why we follow up with a custom move plan created specifically for you and your needs. This plan makes everything clear to our planning & moving departments and ensures the process is as safe and efficient as possible.
Pickup
Our team of movers who are specialized in long-distance moving requirements will pick up your items and bring them to our storage-in-transit facility, to prepare them for the cross-country journey. They will pay special attention to the packing and wrapping of the boxes and furniture, since these are going to travel far.
Hauling
Whether you chose express or consolidated shipment method, your items will be hauled cross country via one of our trailers which are equipped to carry large amounts of freight safely for long distances. We will provide you with an ETA for delivery.
Delivery
Your items will be delivered at your final destination by our delivery team, at the date & time agreed upon. You are now ready to settle in your new neighborhood!
On-Time Delivery & Long Distance Moving Services
Consolidated shipping
If time is on your side, Consolidated Shipment is the cost-efficient option.
Each trailer is shared between approximately 4-10 clients. Shipment must be available for delivery window. Depending on the location, the window range is 6-10 days.
Express trips
If you’re looking for faster shipping, Express Trips is the best choice.
Express Trips is ideal for clients going to one of our frequent destinations. The trailer is shared with clients. We offer 2 express trips per week to all of our branches to meet the needs of the client. Delivery is between 3-9 business days, depending on location. The shuttle is included in cost.
Exclusive service
If you have very tight timeframe, Exclusive Service is the answer.
With Exclusive Service use we contract the entire trailer just for your shipment, and not shared with anyone else. This prevents theft and speeds up the shipment since no other shipments will be loaded in the trailer. With direct delivery from pickup to destination, it is the fastest way to move and allows you to set the dates on pick up and deliveries.
