How far in advance should you schedule local movers?

For the best availability and rates, we recommend scheduling your move 4-6 weeks in advance. Booking early is especially important during peak seasons, like summer or the end of the month, when demand is highest.

Can you give me an exact quote for my move?

We strive to provide as accurate a quote as possible for your move. However, Cheap Movers Los Angeles typically offers estimates based on the details you provide, such as the size of your move, distance, and any additional services required. For local moves, quotes are usually based on hourly rates, while long-distance moves may be given as flat-rate estimates.

This allows us to provide a precise, all-inclusive price with no hidden fees.

How to prepare a bed for movers?

To prepare your bed for movers, start by removing all bedding, including sheets, blankets, pillows, and mattress covers. Pack these separately in labeled boxes or bags. If your bed frame can be disassembled, it’s helpful to take it apart; remove the headboard, footboard, and any detachable parts. Place screws and small parts in a labeled bag to keep everything organized.

Protect the mattress by wrapping it in a mattress cover or plastic wrap to shield it from dirt or damage. If you’re unsure about disassembly, no worries! Cheap Movers Los Angeles can handle the dismantling and reassembly for you. This preparation helps ensure a quick and smooth move.

How early should I book professional movers in Los Angeles?

It’s best to book professional movers in Los Angeles at least 4-6 weeks in advance. This gives you enough time to secure your desired moving date, especially during peak times like the summer or at the end of the month when demand is high.

If you have a last-minute move, don’t worry—Cheap Movers Los Angeles strives to accommodate even short-notice requests. However, booking early helps ensure you get the best rates and availability.

How Many Movers Do I Need For My Move?

The number of movers you’ll need depends on the size of your move and how much furniture and belongings you have. For a small apartment or studio, typically 2 movers are sufficient. For a larger home or more complex move, such as a house with multiple rooms or heavy furniture, you may need 3 or more movers.

If you’re unsure how many movers to request, Cheap Movers Los Angeles can help assess your needs based on the details of your move and provide a recommendation. Our goal is to ensure we have the right team to make your move efficient and stress-free.

How is the cost of my shipment calculated?

At Cheap Movers Los Angeles, the cost of your shipment is calculated based on a few key factors. For local moves, the distance is typically less of a factor, but for longer moves, mileage does play a role. The total volume or weight of your belongings also impacts pricing, especially for interstate moves, as does the time and number of movers required to complete the job.

Additional services like packing, unpacking, or handling specialty items such as pianos or artwork may increase costs. Timing also matters—moving during peak seasons, such as summer or weekends, can affect pricing due to high demand. We’ll always provide a detailed estimate tailored to your move, so you know exactly what to expect.

Do You Charge Extra For Stairs, Elevators, Long Walking Distance?

Moving items up or down flights of stairs, navigating through elevators, or covering long distances between the truck and your residence requires extra time and effort, which can affect the total cost.

When should I begin contacting moving companies for estimates?

It’s best to start contacting moving companies for estimates at least 6-8 weeks before your desired moving date. This gives you time to compare quotes, check availability, and plan accordingly, especially during peak moving seasons like summer or the end of the month.

If your move is on short notice, reach out as soon as possible. At Cheap Movers Los Angeles, we’ll do our best to accommodate your schedule, even with a tighter timeline. Starting early helps ensure you get the best rates and a smooth moving experience.

How is drive time calculated?

Drive time is calculated based on the distance between your old and new location and the estimated time it takes to travel. This includes factors like traffic, road conditions, and the route taken. For local moves, drive time is usually calculated from the time the movers leave the first location until they arrive at the destination.

If your move involves a longer distance, the drive time is based on mileage and can be affected by traffic patterns or the time of day. We provide an accurate estimate of drive time when you book your move with Cheap Movers Los Angeles, so you know exactly what to expect in terms of timing and cost.

How are estimates calculated?

Estimates are calculated based on several factors to ensure an accurate price for your move. For local moves, the estimate typically considers the size of your shipment, the number of movers required, and the estimated time to complete the job. The complexity of your move, such as whether any items need disassembly or special handling, also affects the estimate.

For long-distance moves, estimates are based on distance, the weight or volume of your belongings, and any additional services like packing or storage. We provide you with a detailed quote after assessing these factors, and our team can adjust the estimate based on any specific needs you may have, ensuring transparency and no hidden fees.

Is moving labor the only moving expense I should expect during my move?

At Cheap Movers LA, we provide transparent and detailed estimates, covering all aspects of your move. This ensures you have a comprehensive understanding of the costs involved. Trust us to handle your move efficiently and affordably. Contact Cheap Movers LA for a detailed breakdown of your moving expenses.

How can I keep my costs down during my move?

Keeping costs down during a move is possible with a few smart strategies. Firstly, declutter and donate items you no longer need, as fewer belongings mean lower transportation costs. Plan your move during off-peak seasons if possible, as rates tend to be more competitive. Opt for a mid-week moving day, and consider flexible dates for better pricing. Pack efficiently on your own or hire professionals for cost-effective packing solutions. At Cheap Movers LA, we work with you to find budget-friendly options for a smooth and affordable move. Contact us for personalized advice on minimizing your moving costs.

What should I do with my jewelry and other valuable items?

We recommend keeping jewelry, important documents, and other high-value items with you rather than packing them with your main shipment. For security and peace of mind, place these items in a separate, secure bag or box, and transport them yourself on moving day.

If you have any larger valuables that require special handling, let Cheap Movers Los Angeles know in advance so we can advise on safe packing or additional moving options. This way, you can be confident that your most valuable items are well-protected throughout the move.

Should I hire a professional mover or do it myself?

Deciding between hiring a professional mover or undertaking a DIY move depends on various factors. If you value convenience, time savings, and reducing stress, a professional moving service like Cheap Movers LA is a great choice. Our experienced team ensures a smooth and efficient relocation, handling all aspects from packing to transportation. While a DIY move may seem cost-effective initially, hidden expenses and the physical demands of moving can add up. Professional movers offer expertise, efficiency, and peace of mind. Contact Cheap Movers LA to discuss your specific needs and let us make your move hassle-free.

What can’t we bring?

For safety and legal reasons, there are certain items Cheap Movers Los Angeles cannot transport. These typically include:

  • Hazardous Materials: Items like gasoline, propane tanks, paint, paint thinners, and other flammable or explosive materials.
  • Perishable Foods: Fresh or frozen foods, as they can spoil during transit, especially in long-distance moves.
  • Plants: Due to state regulations and the risk of damage, live plants are often restricted, especially on long-distance moves.
  • Valuables: Items like cash, jewelry, important documents, and personal items are best kept with you during the move for security.

For a complete list of restricted items or if you’re unsure about a specific item, feel free to contact us! We’re here to help you prepare a safe and smooth move.

Is valuation (moving insurance) necessary?

While valuation, also known as moving insurance, is not mandatory, it’s highly recommended for added protection during your move. Most standard moving contracts provide minimal coverage, and opting for additional valuation ensures your belongings are financially safeguarded against unexpected events like accidents or damages. At Cheap Movers LA, we prioritize the security of your possessions. We offer various valuation options to suit your needs, providing peace of mind throughout the moving process. Contact us to explore the best valuation choices for your upcoming move.

How far in advance should I schedule my move?

To secure your preferred moving date and ensure a smooth relocation process, it’s advisable to schedule your move at least 4-6 weeks in advance. This timeframe allows ample time for coordination, efficient planning, and addressing any specific requirements you may have. However, we understand that moving circumstances can vary, and we strive to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. Contact Cheap Movers LA today to discuss your moving timeline and secure the best available slot for your upcoming move.

What days or dates are the best for moving?

The ideal days for moving can vary based on your specific needs and preferences. Weekdays, especially midweek (Tuesday through Thursday), are generally less busy than weekends. Additionally, avoiding peak moving seasons, such as summer months, can help secure better availability and potentially lower costs. To determine the optimal moving day for your situation, contact Cheap Movers LA, and our team will work with you to find a convenient and cost-effective solution tailored to your schedule.

How Can I Make My Move Faster?

To speed up your move, preparation is key. Start by packing and organizing well in advance, grouping similar items and labeling boxes clearly to make unpacking easier. Decluttering beforehand and getting rid of any items you don’t need will also reduce the load, saving time and effort on moving day.

On the day of the move, ensure everything is ready for the movers by having boxes stacked, pathways clear, and any furniture that needs to be disassembled already taken apart, if possible. For small but valuable items, keep them packed separately and within reach, as this can streamline the packing and loading process.

Lastly, communicate any special requests or instructions to the movers in advance, so they know exactly what to expect. With these steps, your move will go more smoothly and quickly, allowing you to settle into your new home faster.

Will movers place my possessions in the room in which they belong?

Should I remove clothes and other items from dresser drawers and desk drawers?

For a smoother and safer move, we recommend emptying dresser and desk drawers before moving. This reduces the weight of the furniture, preventing damage and ensuring the safety of both your belongings and our movers. If the items are lightweight and non-fragile, you may leave them inside, but heavy or breakable items should be packed separately to avoid any issues during transit. Our goal at Cheap Movers LA is to make your move as efficient and stress-free as possible!

What items can you NOT move?

Certain items are prohibited due to safety or legal reasons. Cheap Movers LA cannot transport hazardous materials, explosives, flammable items, perishables, or illegal substances.

It depends on whether the estimate provided is a non-binding or a binding estimate. A mover is not required to provide an estimate to a shipper. However, if a shipper requests an estimate over the telephone or Internet, and the mover calls it an “estimate”, it must be in writing. The mover may provide a non-binding or binding estimate and the estimate itself must clearly state whether it is non-binding or binding.

What do the following estimate terms mean: non-binding estimate, 110% provision/rule, binding estimate?

Non-binding Estimate
A non-binding estimate is only an approximate cost, it is NOT binding. It is based on the weight of the goods to be transported and the distance they will be moved. Since a non-binding estimate should be reasonably accurate and provide the shipper with a general idea of the cost of packing and moving the goods, a mover should physically review the household goods (by scheduling an onsite estimate) to be transported. Non-binding estimates should cover the goods and services listed on the estimate. If you add items or request additional services, the mover may void the estimate or revise it. The non-binding estimate must be in writing and state that it is non-binding.

110% Provision/Rule
If the final charges exceed the non-binding estimated amount, the mover must deliver the household goods upon payment of the estimated amount plus 10% of that amount. The mover must then defer the balance due on the charges for 30 days. However, the mover may collect payment for unexpected charges or services upon delivery.

Binding Estimate
Binding estimates must be in writing and are usually based on constructive weight. Movers may use other terms to designate a binding estimate or set price, but all such estimates shall have clearly indicated on their faces that the estimate is binding on the mover.

  • Pack Efficiently: Use a systematic approach to pack your belongings quickly. Start with essentials and frequently used items, then move on to less essential items. Label boxes clearly to facilitate unpacking and organization at your new place.
  • Hire Professional Movers: If time is of the essence, consider hiring a professional moving company. They have the expertise and resources to handle quick moves efficiently. Research and select a reputable moving company that can accommodate your timeline.

How do I find the best local movers?

Finding the best local movers requires some research and consideration of several factors. Here are some steps you can follow to find reliable and reputable local movers:

  • Read Online Reviews: Check online platforms such as Google, Yelp, or moving-specific websites for customer reviews and ratings. Pay attention to the overall reputation, reliability, and professionalism of the moving companies you’re considering.
  • Verify Credentials: Ensure that the local movers you’re considering are properly licensed and insured. You can typically check a moving company’s license and insurance status on your state’s regulatory website.

What is the least expensive day to move?

The cost of moving can vary depending on several factors, including the time of year, location, and demand. While there isn’t a specific day that guarantees the lowest moving costs, there are certain considerations that can help you potentially save money:

  • Avoid Peak Moving Seasons: Generally, the summer months (May to September) and weekends tend to be the busiest and most expensive times for moving. If possible, consider scheduling your move during the off-peak seasons (fall or winter) or on weekdays to potentially secure lower rates.
  • Weekdays: Moving companies often have higher demand on weekends when people are off work and have more flexibility. If you can plan your move on a weekday, you may have a better chance of securing a lower rate as moving companies tend to have more availability and may offer discounted rates to fill their schedules.
  • Mid-Month or Mid-Week: Moving during the middle of the month or mid-week can also work in your favor. Many people prefer moving at the beginning or end of the month, coinciding with lease agreements or mortgage payments. By choosing a less popular time, you may have better access to moving companies and potentially negotiate better rates.
  • Flexibility: Being flexible with your moving dates can increase your chances of finding cost-saving opportunities. If you can accommodate the schedule of the moving company and choose dates that are less in demand, you may have more negotiating power when it comes to pricing.
  • Plan Ahead: Give yourself plenty of time to research and book your moving company. Last-minute bookings often come with higher costs due to limited availability and higher demand.

What Month is the cheapest Month to move?

The cost of moving can vary depending on several factors, including the time of year, location, and demand. While there isn’t a specific month that guarantees the lowest moving costs universally, there are certain considerations that can help you potentially save money:

  • Off-Peak Seasons: Generally, the summer months (May to September) are considered the peak moving season when demand is high, and prices may be higher. To potentially secure lower moving costs, consider scheduling your move during the off-peak seasons, such as fall or winter.
  • Avoid Holidays and Weekends: Moving around holidays and weekends can be more expensive due to increased demand and limited availability. If possible, try to avoid scheduling your move during major holidays or on weekends when moving companies tend to be busier. Opting for weekdays or non-holiday periods can increase your chances of finding more competitive rates.
  • Mid-Month: Many people prefer moving at the beginning or end of the month, often coinciding with lease agreements, rental contracts, or mortgage payments. Choosing a mid-month moving date may provide you with more flexibility and potentially lower costs.
  • Plan Ahead: Giving yourself ample time to plan and book your move can help you find better deals. Last-minute bookings can be more expensive due to limited availability and higher demand. That’s why we, as Cheap Movers LA, offer you more affordable prices.
