How much should I expect to pay to move in Mesa?

Expect to pay around $1,060.16 for the convenience of having full-service movers oversee your Mesa move. Hiring a labor-only team to just help with loading and unloading will decrease this rate to around $400.01. Moving quotes also vary depending on the size of your home, if stairs are involved, the time of year, and whether you add packing or other services to your booking.

Are there movers in Mesa who specialize in student moves for universities like Arizona State Polytechnic and Benedictine University?

Yes, many local moving services specialize in moving students into and out of residence halls and student apartments. They’re familiar with campus policies, including parking rules and move-in scheduling, and have experience working with campus security. Check out the reviews on MovingPlace for feedback from students who've previously hired local movers.

How can movers protect belongings from heat damage during a summer move in Mesa?

Residential moving companies often use moving blankets, mattress bags, and furniture covers to protect belongings from heat damage. When packing, use breathable materials like packing paper, especially for heat-sensitive items like electronics, musical instruments, and artwork. Also, consider booking your moves for the early morning or late evening when the heat isn't so intense.

Where can I get affordable packing supplies in Mesa?

Several stores in Mesa stock affordable packing supplies. Box & Tape on East University Drive offers more than 20 different-sized boxes and bubble wrap that can be purchased by the foot or roll. SHIPPING by ELI sells a good range of boxes, packing paper, and peanuts. Facebook and other local online marketplaces are also a great way to source used moving boxes for free.

Is packing part of the standard full-service move?

No, packing isn't typically part of a standard full-service move. However, many Mesa movers offer packing as an add-on service. Although you'll pay extra, having the pros pack will save you time and hassle. If you’re scheduling movers through MovingPlace, you can add packing services during the booking process.

"Most cost estimates are based on limited data that doesn't account for timing, location, or move size. Ours are built on years of real moves — so what you see here is actually based on what people in Mesa pay."

How we calculate these numbers

1

Start with local data We pull from 1M+ completed moves on our platform. If Mesa has enough data (at least 10 moves of a given size), that local data is our baseline.

2

Fill gaps with regional context Where local data is thin, we expand to county, then state, then cities with comparable household income levels—so estimates stay market-relevant.

3

Normalize for consistency We apply weighted calculations across categories to prevent a single outlier from skewing what a typical move should cost.

Keep in mind: many factors can affect the actual cost of your move—like the time of year, current demand, number of stairs, heavy items, and more. The best way to get accurate pricing for your specific move is to use our simple, 3-step quote tool. You can compare pricing from multiple providers, customize your move, and ultimately book the mover that best fits your needs.

How to Save on Moving in Mesa

In Mesa, AZ, the average cost of labor-only move help is only $400.01, compared to $1,060.16 for a local full-service move, so hiring labor-only movers could save you hundreds of dollars on your move, if you're willing to rent a truck or moving container.

Additionally, MovingPlace's algorithm matches you with the mover that offers the best value for your needs, and our Best Price Guarantee means that you can book with the confidence that you are getting the best deal.

Done Right Movers arrived a little late of the appointed time; no problem. The two man crew worked very hard for the three hours they were here. They came prepared with needed tools such as tape, screw drivers, etc... It took the entire three hours to load the 16' foot POD; with a bit of room to spare, I might add. Both men were polite and respectful. They worked very hard. I would definitely recommend Done Right Movers to everyone who needs assistance in moving. A very good experience. Thank you to Kelly & Phil

The gentlemen ran late from a previous job. They first apologized as they were unable to reach me as my phone number was wrong in their system. I replied. I attempted to fix this error two times. Just yesterday I again asked that my phone number be corrected and was told it had been corrected. Evidently….It hadn’t. Helpers kept me abreast of their eta. When arriving they introduced themselves and got to work rite away. They carefully moved ea box and ea pc of furniture into the pod. These two are the face of Hire Helpers Hire the Helpers should consider themselves extremely fortunate to have ees that make a good first impression, are hard working , have communication skills and care about their clients and their possessions. And they were very diligent workers. Yes I would use Hire the Helpers in the future….Thx to Dakato and Austin.job performance.
