Our 5-step process
Personalized assessment
We inventory your belongings in person, or simply from photos and videos you send us.
Detailed quote
You receive a clear quote that accounts for the route, access and the particulars of your move.
Tailored preparation
We plan the necessary materials: specialty boxes, protective covers and equipment suited to your belongings.
Secure transport
Your furniture is loaded with care, the route is optimized and you stay informed throughout the trip.
Complete setup
We place your furniture according to your instructions and do a final check with you to make sure you are satisfied.
Transparent pricing: choose the option that works for you
We know that every long-distance move is different. That is why we offer you two clear pricing options, with no hidden fees. You choose the one that best fits your situation and your budget.
Hourly rate
The ideal option if your inventory can still change or you expect last-minute adjustments.
- Transparent billing based on actual time worked
- Full flexibility to add items or plan extra stops
- The same quality of service, protection and professional equipment
Choose this option if your inventory is still evolving, you expect last-minute adjustments or you need flexibility for extra stops along the way.
Flat rate (fixed price)
The perfect solution if you know exactly what you are moving and your access is confirmed.
- Amount guaranteed in advance for your entire project
- Precise planning with reserved schedules and resources
- Total peace of mind for your budget, whatever the distance
Choose this option if your inventory is final, your access is confirmed and you want to know the exact amount in advance for total peace of mind.
How do you get a guaranteed flat rate? We set your rate after assessing your complete inventory, your access points and your route. You then receive a detailed written quote that includes every service you chose: full packing, storage or premium services.
What affects the cost of your move
Five main factors determine the final price:
- The volume to move (ft³ / number of rooms)
- The distance to travel
- Access conditions (stairs/elevators)
- The time of year
- The packing services required
A few simple steps can save you a lot. Reserve your parking spaces and the elevator in advance to avoid delays. Group the packing of your fragile items, like kitchenware and glassware, to save time. Sort through your things before moving day: the fewer items you move, the less you pay.
