Long-Distance Movers

The price for a long-distance move can be influenced by the distance of the move, the volume of items being transported, the amount of coverage you pay for, and any additional services like packing or storage. Other considerations include the season, special requirements, and the specific locations of the starting point and destination. For a long-distance move, expect to pay between $3000 and $10,000 total. According to MarketWatch.com, “If you plan for a full-service move with professional movers, you can expect to pay between $4,200 and $12,000. The distance you travel and your home size are the most important factors determining your moving cost.”

Long-distance moving services will include loading, transporting, and unloading your belongings. Many moving companies will also offer additional services, such as packing and unpacking services and warehouse storage. Updater.com acknowledges, “Packing up your entire house could still easily take months. If you’re moving in a hurry, work long hours, or would rather spend time with friends than pack up your home, you should consider hiring professional packers.” These typically come at an additional cost. It’s essential to clarify exactly what kind of moving services you’re looking for when getting your initial quote so that there are no surprises down the road.

Accidents can happen, even with the best precautions. That’s why government regulation ensures that all moving companies include coverage of 60 cents per pound per item for your move, referred to as Limited Liability Coverage. This typically isn’t enough coverage for most people, which is why many moving companies offer Full Value Replacement, which includes a full reimbursement, replacement, or repair of any damaged items. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration confirms, “With full value protection, your mover is liable for the total replacement value of any lost or damaged items in your shipment.”

Our goal is to give you peace of mind during your move. While we take every precaution to keep your belongings safe, we also ensure you’re covered in case damage does occur. “We want our customers to feel secure, knowing their valuables are protected,” our owner, Eric Wilmot, emphasizes.

The duration of a long-distance move can vary based on several factors, including the distance between the starting point and destination, the size of the move, and logistical considerations. On average, a long-distance move can take anywhere from a couple of days to several weeks. MoveBuddha agrees, “If you decide to move with big items like pianos or are heading across the country, your move may take a couple of weeks. If you’re just heading to another city less than 50 miles away, you may be able to make the move in a day.”

At HuberWilmot Moving & Storage, we prioritize efficiency without compromising on the safety and care of your belongings. “Our approach ensures a seamless transition for our customers, especially during long-distance moves,” says our owner, Eric Wilmot. As an independent moving company, as opposed to a national chain or an agent of an interstate van line, we are able to move you across state lines with the same crew and truck. This provides for a more streamlined moving process, especially for long-distance moving, and lowers the chance of damage to your items as they stay in one truck.

Handling bulky and fragile items requires specialized training and equipment. Movers should be trained in techniques to safely pack, lift, and transport such items. This includes understanding the proper packing materials, using equipment like dollies or shrinkwrap and extra padding in the right spots, and knowing how to navigate challenging spaces.

With their extensive training and years of experience, they’re adept at handling everything from pianos to precious antiques, ensuring they’re safely transported to your new home without damage.

If an item is damaged during the move, it’s essential to notify the moving company as soon as possible. Typically, companies have a claim process that involves filling out a form detailing the damage, providing evidence like photos, and then awaiting a response or resolution from the company. Move.org states, “Once you’ve notified your coordinator of damages or missing items, they will ask you to submit that information in writing—usually online or via email.” We encourage you to do a survey of your items as soon as they are unloaded so that you can alert the team leader while the movers are still there. This will ensure that there is no question as to when the item was damaged.

Customer satisfaction is our top priority here at HuberWilmot. “We’re dedicated to resolving any concerns swiftly,” says our owner, Eric Wilmot. If there’s an issue, our responsive customer service team of moving & storage advocates will help guide you through the claim process, ensuring a swift and fair resolution. Please contact us as soon as possible to start the claims process.

When moving across state lines, moving companies must adhere to specific regulations. One of the primary requirements is having a USDOT (United States Department of Transportation) license number.

Your moving company is also required to be fully insured for your move.
