If your move starts 60 minutes late, $100 is automatically deducted from your final bill. No exceptions, no fine print.

When you hire movers you have a lot riding on them.

Not only does it cost a lot of money, but most moves take careful planning and coordination of many parts. You may be planning around deadlines for when you have to be out of your current home or into your new one. You may be taking off work, or relying on other people or parties. No matter the case, your time is important.

So why does an On-Time Guarantee have a 1-hour grace period?

Because moving day has a lot of moving parts we can't always control (traffic, elevators, building access) but we plan hard to avoid needing it. Over 90% of our moves start within 30 minutes of the scheduled time.

So if you don't want to be stuck worrying about when your movers will show up, give us a call!

Need to store your belongings for a while as part of your move?

Our vault storage service is the perfect solution for these types of situations, but not many people know how it works.

• With vault storage, your belongings are loaded directly into wooden storage vaults held within our truck.
• Once everything is loaded up, we return to our warehouse in St. Paul, where your vaults are forklifted off the truck.
• When your new home is ready, we put your vaults back on the truck and arrive at your home to unload your belongings.

This process saves you time and money compared to using a traditional self-storage unit. Plus, you pay by the day rather than by the month, meaning no paying for time you don't need.

A lowball quote today can turn into a much bigger bill on moving day.

These are a list of non-negotiables. Before you book any moving company, run down this list. If they're missing even one of these, you should keep shopping around.

We've coordinated hundreds of moves across the Twin Cities and heard the same stories from people who got burned elsewhere first. Save this one for when you actually need it.

We offer award-winning moving services with highly trained movers, upfront pricing, and no surprise fees.

Moving this summer in the Twin Cities? Here are a few things worth knowing before moving day.

1. Book early and lock in your logistics. Summer is peak moving season, which means more competition for the time slots you want, nearby parking for the truck, and elevator reservations in your building. The earlier you get everything confirmed, the smoother moving day will go.

2. Keep an eye on the forecast — but don’t stress about it. If your items are properly boxed, your furniture is padded, and everything is sealed in plastic wrap, your belongings will be well protected whether it’s raining or hot and humid. A little Minnesota summer weather won’t slow a prepared crew down.

3. Build extra time into your day for construction. Summer is road construction season in Minnesota, and drives across the metro can take longer than usual. Some roads also have weight restrictions that prohibit large trucks, so don’t be surprised if your movers take a slightly different route than you did — they know what they’re doing.

Moving this summer? Make sure to start planning early!

Summer is a very busy time for moving and spots book up fast. This isn't just a hunch, the actual data backs it up.

We reviewed over 5 years worth of data (tens of thousands of moves) to see how far in advance you should book your move.

On average, summer moves book almost twice as early as winter moves. That means you should be reaching out to moving companies about a month before your moving date, otherwise you risk missing out on availability.

Wondering whether it's worth it to pay for movers?

In some cases it may make sense to move yourself.

If it's not a big move, you have able-bodied friends who are happy to help, your belongings aren't particularly valuable, and you're on a tight budget – then you can probably pull it off on your own.

But if you don't have all of those things, trying to DIY your move can be a big risk to yourself, your belongings, and end up costing as much as hiring movers in the long run.

You don't want to discover the hidden costs of moving yourself – like injury, damage to your belongings, or damage to your home – when it's already too late!

Before you hire a mover, there’s a term you should know: valuation coverage.

It’s not the same as insurance — and “we’re insured” doesn’t say anything about what happens to your belongings. A mover’s general insurance covers their workers and your walls. Your stuff is a completely different conversation.

In Minnesota, the law sets the minimum payout for damaged items at $0.60 per pound. That’s it. A 10-pound laptop gets you $6.00. This isn’t a loophole — it’s just how carrier liability law works, and it’s been the standard floor for MN movers ever since the state started regulating them through MnDOT.

The good news: you have options. Ask your moving company about additional valuation coverage before move day, and check whether your renter’s or homeowner’s policy covers items in transit.

Did you know about the $0.60/lb rule before this? Drop a 😳 in the comments if this is news to you.

The box you choose matters just as much as how you pack it.

Most people grab whatever box is nearby and fill it up — which is how you end up with a 50-pound book box that nobody wants to touch, or a large box so stuffed with dishes that the bottom gives out mid-carry.

Swipe through for some quick tips on choosing the right box for your belongings 👉

Your movers will thank you, your back will thank you, and your items will arrive at their destination safe and sound!

As a Minnesotan, you know how this time of year can be - temperatures sometimes swing from freezing to roasting in a matter of days. Minnesota storage units can hit -20° in January and 100°+ in July. That’s a brutal range for anything you actually care about.

Most people know not to put food or live animals into storage (hopefully). But there’s a whole category of everyday valuables that silently get destroyed in standard storage — vinyl records warp, pressurized cans become a hazard, and artwork can crack or mold.

The fix is simple: climate-controlled storage. It costs a bit more, but a lot less than replacing a vintage record collection or a solid wood dresser.
Swipe to see what belongs in climate-controlled storage — and save this before your next move. 👇
