Long Distance Moving FAQs

How do I choose a mover?

Choosing a mover is a big decision. To avoid common pitfalls and ensure a stress-free move, look for these three critical trust signals:

Verify Credentials: Always check for a valid USDOT number through the FMCSA and confirm the mover is properly licensed and insured.
Demand Professional Standards: Don’t settle for temporary labor. Ensure your crew is professionally trained, drug-screened, and background-checked.
Insist on an Accurate Estimate: A reputable mover will always perform a visual assessment (in-person or virtual) before giving you a price. Beware of any quote given solely over the phone.

How do you calculate the cost of a long-distance move?

Unlike local moves which are often hourly, long-distance moves are generally calculated based on the total weight of your items and the distance they are being transported. Other factors, such as packing services, storage needs, or special handling for bulky items, will also be factored into your final estimate.

What is the difference between a binding and non-binding estimate?

A binding estimate guarantees the total cost of your move, provided the inventory and services requested remain the same. A non-binding estimate is an approximation; if your shipment weighs more than expected or you add extra services, the final cost may increase. We prioritize transparency and aim to provide accurate, detailed quotes for all our clients.

Do you disassemble/reassemble beds?

Yes! Our crews come fully equipped to safely disassemble your bed frames and reassemble them at your new home.

Pro-tip: We recommend leaving this to the pros. If you choose to disassemble the bed yourself, our team will be unable to reassemble it for you. Let us handle the heavy lifting!

What does "Full Value Protection" mean?

Full Value Protection is a premium coverage option that holds the moving company liable for the replacement value of lost or damaged items. Standard carrier liability is often minimal and based on weight, so we highly recommend discussing our full protection plans to ensure your peace of mind throughout the relocation process.

Are your movers direct employees or subcontractors?

At Andrews Moving & Storage, we prioritize quality and accountability. Our professional crews are our own trained, background-checked employees, not third-party subcontractors. This ensures that the same dedicated team handles your belongings with the consistency and care you expect.

How far in advance should I book my move?

We recommend booking your move at least 6–8 weeks in advance, especially during the peak summer months. Booking early allows us to secure your preferred dates, provide a thorough in-home or virtual estimate, and coordinate the logistics for a seamless transition.

Can I keep some of my items in storage during the move?

Yes! If your new home isn't ready or you need temporary space during your transition, we offer secure, temperature-controlled storage solutions. We can manage short-term storage (days/weeks) or long-term arrangements to fit your timeline perfectly.

Are there items you cannot move?

For safety and legal reasons, we cannot transport hazardous materials. Please dispose of these items properly prior to your move:

Hazardous Materials: Propane tanks, firearms, ammunition, paint, and aerosol cans.
Fuel-Powered Equipment: Items like lawnmowers, edgers, and chainsaws must have their fuel tanks completely drained of gas or oil before our crew arrives.

If you have questions about specific items you are unsure about, please check with your Move Coordinator well in advance of your move date. It is better to verify early than to have to leave items behind on moving day!

Will my shipment be combined with other customers'?

In some long-distance scenarios, shipments are consolidated to optimize routing, which can affect delivery windows. However, we always provide clear expectations regarding your delivery timeframe. If you require a specific, guaranteed arrival date, please let your move coordinator know so we can discuss dedicated transport options.

How can I prepare my home for the moving crew?

To make your move as efficient as possible, we suggest decluttering before we arrive, clearly labeling boxes, and setting aside essential items (like documents, medications, and chargers) that you will keep with you. We will provide a comprehensive "Moving Day" checklist during your planning phase to guide you.

What should I do if I notice damage after delivery?

We take every precaution to protect your goods, but if you notice any issues upon delivery, please note them immediately on the inventory sheet provided. Contact your move coordinator right away to initiate our claims process; we are committed to resolving any concerns promptly and professionally.
