How far in advance should I book my long-distance move?

We recommend booking at least 2-4 weeks in advance to secure your preferred moving date. However, we can often accommodate last-minute moves based on availability.

How does pricing work?

You only pay for the space you book in the trailer, making our service a cost-effective option. No hidden fees—just a straightforward, budget-friendly moving experience. Need more space than you thought? No problem! You can pay for the additional space at the same per foot cost you booked.

Can I get help with loading and unloading?

Yes! While our long distance service is designed to save you money with DIY loading and unloading, we can help you book professional moving labor help through the MovingPlace marketplace if you need an extra hand.

How long will it take for my belongings to arrive?

Transit times vary based on distance and route, but most moves are completed within 3-7 business days. We provide estimated delivery windows when you book.

Yes! Every move includes $10,000 of catastrophic coverage, giving you extra peace of mind.

Is MovingPlace a moving company or a broker?

MovingPlace LLC is a property broker licensed by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), MC No. 807665. MovingPlace is a broker, not a motor carrier. MovingPlace does not transport property and does not operate the motor vehicles used to transport it. MovingPlace arranges for trailers, containers, and related transportation equipment to be delivered to and picked up from the job site a customer selects. That transportation is performed by independent motor carriers that hold their own operating authority from FMCSA and maintain their own insurance.

Can MovingPlace help me transport my car?

Our professional drivers can safely and efficiently transport your car — either alongside your household belongings or as a standalone service. Whether you're moving one vehicle or several, we make auto transport easy to add to your move. Your Dedicated Move Manager will help coordinate the timing and details to ensure everything arrives on schedule, with no extra stress.

Load Yourself or Add Help  — It’s Your Move
