Do I Need to Empty My Dresser Drawers?
Our general rule thumb is if your dresser is well constructed and sturdy, it will be okay to leave clothing items inside the drawers. If your dresser is made of particle board or is an Ikea type dresser, we strongly advise all contents of the dresser drawers be emptied. These dressers are not manufactured to be moved, especially with heavy contents in the drawers. No matter the dresser, we strongly recommend all breakables are removed from the drawers.
Do You Disassemble, Reassemble, or Rearrange Furniture?
Yes! Our Movers come equipped with a basic tool kit for basic disassembly and reassembly, and are able to arrange furniture and place boxes in requested locations.
Are You Licensed?
Yes, we are a fully licensed moving company that meets all state and federal requirements for performing work as a Household Goods Mover. Additionally, we are CARB compliant and licensed with the California Bureau of Household Goods and Services.
Should I Tip My Movers?
When it comes to tipping we encourage our guys that tips are never expected and always appreciated. We want tips to be reflective of the performance on your particular job.
Will You Wrap My Items for Protection?
As part of our standard procedure, we will always wrap items that you ask us to wrap. If we are transporting your items we do our best to protect anything from scratching or getting damaged. If we are only loading your items it will be your responsibility to supply the materials, then our team can implement the materials for safe transportation.
Do You Remove/Install Anything on Walls?
