What makes a long distance move different
Most of what goes wrong on a long distance move goes wrong in the handoffs. We remove them.
No broker in the middle
You are hiring the company that sends the crew. A lot of long distance quotes come from sales operations that resell the job to whoever bids lowest.
One point of contact
The same estimator stays with the move from the survey to the delivery. You do not restart the story with a call centre.
A tagged inventory
Every item gets a numbered tag at the origin and is checked off at the destination, so a missing box is a fact rather than an argument.
A delivery window, in writing
Long distance delivery is a window, not a time. Ours goes on the estimate with the spread stated, so you can plan around it.
Packed for the road
Two thousand miles of vibration is a different problem from a ten minute drive. Everything is wrapped, banded and decked for the distance.
Storage in transit
When the closing date slips, your shipment waits in storage rather than on your driveway.
How a long distance move runs
Survey and estimate
A walkthrough, in person or by video, then a written estimate built from weight and distance.
Pack and tag
Packing on the day before, then a numbered inventory as the truck is loaded.
Line haul
Your shipment travels with the delivery window on the estimate, and you get a call before it arrives.
Deliver and check off
Furniture placed, boxes by room, and the inventory checked item by item with you.
What a long distance price is built from
Interstate pricing starts from weight and distance, then adjusts for the work at each end. Nobody can price it honestly without knowing what you own.
