Pick the amount of help you actually need

Choosing among our packing services in Ann Arbor mostly comes down to how much of your home you want to touch. Full packing means our crew handles every room. Partial packing means you keep the easy boxes and hand us the kitchen or china cabinet. Fragile item packing covers only the delicate pieces, with crating when something won't fit a standard container.

Two more options sit at either end of the job. Unpacking gets things out of cartons and onto shelves at the new place, and we take the materials away. Supplies delivery suits anyone doing the work alone. Each one has its own page, and you can ask about combining them.

A university town's shelves and curbside rules

Ann Arbor is a book town. U-M's University Library alone reports more than 15 million volumes, and some homes nearby hold their own smaller version. If that describes your house, tell us at the estimate, because full shelves change the box count fast.

The other local question is what happens afterward. The city asks that cardboard be emptied and flattened, and Recycle Ann Arbor says it all has to fit loosely in the cart with the lid closed. Its guide also says packing peanuts aren't accepted for recycling, so paper-based cushioning is the easier choice. Confirm current rules with the city.

What Comes With Every Move

Whichever service you book, this is what shows up with the crew. It is already in your price.

Floor Protection

Your Floors Are Covered Before We Carry Anything

Before a single box moves, we lay down protection along every path we'll walk. Hardwood, tile, and carpet all get covered, so the only thing that changes about your home is that your furniture leaves it.

  • Runners down the full walking path
  • Carpet shield on stairs and landings
  • Booties on in wet or snowy weather

Door & Wall Protection

Door Frames, Bannisters, and Corners Get Padded

Most move-day damage doesn't happen to your furniture. It happens to the doorway it had to squeeze through. We pad the tight spots first so the walls, trim, and railings come out of the day exactly how they went in.

  • Padded door jambs and frames
  • Wrapped bannisters and handrails
  • Corner guards on tight turns

Everything Wrapped

Every Item Padded and Wrapped, Not Just the Nice Ones

Dressers, tables, headboards, mirrors, art, and appliances are individually blanket-padded and shrink-wrapped before they leave the room. There is no "we'll be careful" shortcut. Wrapping is the standard, and it's included.

  • Moving blankets on every piece of furniture
  • Shrink wrap to hold pads and doors shut
  • Extra care for glass, mirrors, and antiques

Beds & Furniture

Beds Come Apart Here and Go Back Together There

We disassemble your beds, and we reassemble them in your new home. Same for tables, sectionals, and anything else that has to come apart to get out the door. You should not be sleeping on a mattress on the floor because your movers left at 4pm.

  • Beds broken down and rebuilt the same day
  • Hardware bagged, labeled, and kept with the piece
  • Tables, sectionals, and desks handled the same way

Uniformed Crews

Professional Movers. In Uniform. Every Time.

Your crew shows up in a clean company uniform, background-checked and trained. No sweatpants, no cigarette or cannabis smell, no attitude in your living room. These are employees who represent the company, not day labor pulled together that morning.

  • Clean, matching uniforms on every crew member
  • Background-checked and drug-free employees
  • Introduced by name when they arrive

Home Staging

We Set Your New Home Up, We Don't Just Dump Boxes

Boxes go to the room they belong in. Furniture gets placed where you want it, not stacked in the garage. Before we leave, we walk the house with you and move anything that isn't sitting exactly right.

  • Boxes delivered to the correct room
  • Furniture placed where you point
  • Final walkthrough before we pull away

Crew Performance Guarantee

A Mover Who Doesn't Pull His Weight Costs You Nothing

If someone on your crew shows up out of uniform, drags his feet, or just isn't doing a good job, you tell your coordinator and we fix it that day. We swap in a replacement mover, or we take that mover's time off your bill. You should never pay full price for someone who didn't earn it.

  • One call to your coordinator, no forms and no arguing
  • A replacement mover swapped in the same day
  • Or that mover's time refunded off your final bill

Ann Arbor Moving FAQs

Partial packing, in most cases. You box the books on your own schedule and we take the kitchen and other breakable items. The quote covers only what we handle.

Not if you add unpacking, since our crew flattens the cartons and hauls off the packing materials. If you unpack on your own, expect to spread it over several weeks, because the city only collects what fits in a closed cart.
