Can I leave items in my file cabinets?

All items from file cabinets should be removed and packed in boxes.

Should I tip my movers?

Tipping is not required, however most people like to thank their movers for a job well done and our crews certainly appreciate being acknowledged for the exceptional service they provide!   A general guideline is $5-$10 per mover per hour, but if you choose to provide a gratuity the amount is completely up to you.

Do you provide clothing wardrobes for my move?

We provide free clothing wardrobe rental on moving day as long as the wardrobes will be returned to us at the end of the day. If we are loading a rental truck, moving your items into a pod, storage or any other move that requires wardrobes to be left with you, you will need to purchase wardrobes if you require them. Each wardrobe holds approximately 2 – 2 ½ feet of clothing. You can pack/unpack them while the crew moves your other items or they will be happy to do it for you.
