Packing services include two optional and tailorable services: packing and unpacking. Both start with getting a quote for your entire move, during which you will inform them whether you want packing and/or unpacking. You will have the option to only have certain items packed or unpacked or have everything handled by the professional packers. Packing starts a few days before your move when a team from the moving company will arrive at your home. They will carefully pack your items, using boxes, bubble wrap, and other materials to protect them. They’ll handle everything from clothes to kitchenware, ensuring each item is securely packed for the move. Once everything is packed, they’ll prepare it for transportation. After you’ve moved to your new home, the unpacking process begins. A team will help unpack your items. They will open the boxes and can place your belongings in the areas you specify. This includes reassembling any furniture that was taken apart for the move.

Packing services for a move are typically included in addition to the moving costs in your moving quote. The hourly rate for these services can range from $120 to $300.

Some movers may offer packing services or unpacking services as a labor-only service, separate from a full-service move, but this will have a unique rate.

Choosing the best packing services starts by researching local packing services and reading customer reviews to gauge their reputation and reliability. Look for companies that are licensed and insured. Movers in Virginia need a Local Movers for Hire license and an Intrastate for Hire license. It’s also important to consider the range of services they offer. Some companies might provide full-service packing, while others might offer more customizable options. Ask about the materials that they use. Using the right materials can be the difference between your items being damaged and making it to your new home safely.

For a successful move, several essential packing materials are needed. The most basic and crucial are various sizes of boxes to accommodate different items. Consider specialty boxes such as mirror cartons and dish boxes for maximum security. Sturdy packing tape is necessary to securely seal the boxes. Bubble wrap and packing paper are important for wrapping and cushioning fragile items. Labeling materials like markers or labels are useful for identifying the contents of each box, which aids in the organization and unpacking process. Stretch wrap can be used to protect furniture and larger items, and furniture pads or blankets provide extra protection for furniture during transport.

Many moving companies offer unpacking services in addition to packing. This is designed to help ease the transition into your new home by assisting with the removal of items from boxes and placing them in the designated areas. Unpacking services can vary from simply unboxing items to a more comprehensive service that includes the removal of packing materials and setting up furniture. This service is particularly beneficial for those who want to quickly settle into their new space without the hassle of dealing with numerous boxes and organizing items themselves.

Moving companies take several precautions when packing to ensure that items are not damaged during the move. They use the right packing materials, such as sturdy boxes, packing paper, and quality packing tape, to protect fragile items. Special attention is given to sorting breakable items from non-breakable ones, and each category is packed accordingly. Fragile items are wrapped individually and placed in boxes with extra cushioning. Moving companies strategically load the moving truck to prevent items from shifting and falling during transit. They use techniques like padding and securing furniture to avoid scratches or dents.

The process to schedule packing services for a move typically begins with setting a moving date. Once you have an idea about the moving date, start the scheduling process as early as possible. This will ideally be several weeks before the move. The first step is to research and select a moving company that offers packing services. Contact the company to discuss your needs, including the size of your move and any special requirements. Be sure to mention your packing needs at this point. The company will then provide a quote and, upon agreement, schedule a date for the packing service. It’s important to tell them about any items that require special attention.
At HuberWilmot Moving & Storage, we make scheduling packing services simple and efficient. Once you contact us with your moving details, we’ll work with you to understand your specific packing needs. We offer a consultation to assess the scope of your move, which helps us provide an accurate quote. After you accept our quote, we’ll schedule a convenient date to begin packing, typically a few days before the move. We assign you a dedicated moving specialist who will be able to help you with any questions that you have.
What is a non-binding estimate?
A non-binding estimate charges you according to the actual weight of your shipment, along with the cost of any moving services that are performed (you will still go through the estimation process to determine what your shipment may cost). To verify the weight of your shipment, the driver will weigh his trailer prior to loading your shipment. Once your shipment is on board, the driver will weigh his trailer again. All other moving charges will be calculated at your origin’s address. If there are any additional charges that are incurred during the delivery process, the driver will provide you with the additional cost (although this is a rare event, it can occur in certain cases).
