We charge an all-inclusive hourly rate which includes  your team of professional movers, all the necessary tools, all the necessary protective materials, any furniture disassembly/reassembly, as well as Cargo & Liability Insurance.

Completion times are rounded to the nearest half an hour, and all bookings have a 3-hour minimum.

 

An accurate content list leads to an accurate completion time. However, very often providing an exact completion time is not possible. This is because any number of small logistical details could impact the duration of the move. The distance to, and ease of access from, the loading/unloading area to your location, for instance.

That said, we’ve been doing this for over a decade, and we always have a good idea of how long a move will take. On average, a 1-bedroom condo takes from 2-4 hours to move, while a 2-bedroom condo takes between 4-6 hours.
