What you get

How we handle Specialty Items

A few pieces need more than strong backs. An upright or a grand, a loaded safe, a full rack of weights, each one gets the right board, the right straps, and a route mapped through the stairs and the narrow, icy doorways before anyone lifts.

No hourly meter

A number set before we lift a box

Most crews around the Twin Cities quote by the hour and let the clock write the final bill. We do it the other way: a firm number in writing before we pull into your driveway, with the packing, the storage, and even the St. Croix river crossing already figured in.

Walk us through it

Tell us about the place, the stairs and the driveway, and the dates on your calendar, by phone, on a video walk-through, or in person over coffee.

Get one number

We send a single flat figure back from the Edina office, most often the same business day you get in touch.

Say yes when you are ready

Asking costs nothing. You only put it on the books once the price and the date sit right with you.

Who pulls up

Our trucks. Our movers. Nobody in between.

Your move is never sold off to a broker, handed to day-labor, or dropped on a stranger you have never met. The people carrying your couch are on Nate’s payroll, and every truck at the curb is ours, lettered with our name, stocked, and serviced in our own shop out in Edina.

  • On our payrollTrained, background-checked movers who load Minnesota and Wisconsin homes week in and week out.
  • One crew start to finishThe same team loads, drives, unloads, and sets down, so nothing gets lost in a hand-off.
  • Careful as a habitBlanket-wrapped furniture, runners over your floors, and door jambs padded before a single item moves.
Our word on it

The Quality Transfer & Storage promise

When a move goes sideways, we own it and put it right. What that buys you is a locked-in arrival window, a claims path spelled out in everyday words, and movers who guard your place as though it were their own.

✔ On time, in the window — the arrival slot we gave you, or a call before we are ever late.

✔ The number holds — the figure you signed is the figure you pay, and that is the end of it.

✔ Claims kept honest — logged on the spot and settled in writing, no dodging.

✔ Nothing in the small print — gas, mileage, and stair carries already sit inside the number.

Specialty Items FAQs

Do you move pianos and gun safes?

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.

How does the flat price stay locked?

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.

Do stairs or a piano add charges later?

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.

How do you keep floors and walls from getting scuffed?

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.

How far ahead should I book?

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.

Do you ask for a deposit?

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.

Want a price you can build the whole move around?

We will send your written flat rate over from the Edina office, most often the same business day.
