Moving questions, answered

We size the figure to your actual belongings and how tough the access is, put it on paper, and keep it there. Provided the load lines up with what you walked us through, move-day comes to the very figure you put your name on.

Ours, always. Nate leads a trained crew on our own trucks, so there is no broker taking a slice, no day-labor, and no stranger you never met walking into your house.

The balance comes due once the job is finished, not before it, aside from the small refundable deposit that holds your date. Cards, checks, and cash all work, and you sign off on the final total on the spot before the crew heads out.

Only a small refundable amount to lock in your crew and date, nothing beyond that. Everything else comes due after the job wraps, and the quote itself is always free.

No. A staircase, a long carry over a snowed-in yard, a piano or a gun safe, every bit of it is priced in before the first box is lifted, so the total never drifts from what you put your name on.

All winter long. We salt the walkways, shrink-wrap furniture against wet snow, keep the truck close, and load quickly so nothing sits out in the cold. Your window holds whether it is a July heat wave or a January cold snap.

By planning around them. We time the drive against I-94, I-494, and the Crosstown, watch the St. Croix bridge crossings, and still hold the window we gave you.

Constantly. Crossing the St. Croix between the metro and Hudson, River Falls, or Somerset is everyday work for us, licensed for both states, with the river crossing already figured into your one written price.

Yes, with the cost already part of your flat price. Those heavy, ungainly pieces travel on the correct board with the right straps and padding, in the hands of movers who have shifted plenty of them.

Yes. Plenty of Minneapolis and St. Paul towers, and a lot of suburban associations, want a Certificate of Insurance and a booked elevator. Send the building rules over and we file the COI and reserve the freight window ahead of time.

Yes. They sit in a clean, heated room, from a week to most of a year, and the cost rides inside your written price rather than showing up as a separate bill down the line.

A week or two of notice covers most moves, and month-ends and the first of the month fill up first. If a crew is open we will still take a same-week or next-day job, so it never hurts to call and check.

We lay down floor runners, pad the door jambs and railings, and blanket-wrap the furniture before it moves, so the place you are leaving and the one you are heading to both come through clean.

All of it, from Minneapolis and St. Paul out through Edina, Eden Prairie, Woodbury, and Maple Grove, then across the St. Croix to Hudson, River Falls, and New Richmond, plus long hauls out of state.
