Our move sizes are defined as:

  • Small: Studio, 1, and 2 bedroom apartments
  • Medium: 3 bedroom apartments, 2 and 3 bedroom homes
  • Large: 4+ bedroom homes

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.

You can compare pricing from multiple providers, customize your move, and ultimately book the mover that best fits your needs.

Customers Trust MovingPlace

Great helpers! Adriano called to give an ETA, then called to let me know he was stuck in traffic and give an updated ETA. When they arrived they went right to work. They were super careful with my things and asked where I would like them put. Extremely professional, polite, and friendly. I would definitely recommend them!

They were delayed in traffic (beyond their control), but did an excellent job. They got everything done in the allotted two hour time frame. Company charged extra for stairs (for which I had previously advised), but again that was beyond the movers' control.

Moving is a very stressful time. I had a situation where my Pod container might not show up before my movers did. They were very kind and told me they would work with me on the timing. Overall the two staff members that arrived were very professional and thorough. It all worked out and I would recommend this company for anyone. Excellent customer service!
