Moving questions, answered

We price it off the things you are actually moving and how awkward the way in is, write that number down, and stick to it. Provided the load matches what you described, move day settles on the exact figure you signed, no padding and no ticking meter.

Ours, without exception. Bob runs a trained MGM crew on our own rigs, so no broker skims a cut, no day-labor shows up, and no stranger sets foot in your house.

You pay once the work is done, apart from that small refundable hold on your date. Settle up with card, check, or cash; you give the final total a nod at the door before we pull out.

Just a small refundable hold to lock your MGM crew and your day, that is all. The balance is settled once the work is finished, and the quote never costs a thing.

It does not. A flight of stairs, a Newport third-floor haul, a bridge run out to the island, a piano or a gun safe, every bit of it is inside the figure before a single carton moves, so the total never wanders from the number you put your name to.

All fifty-two weeks. Come winter we grit the walks and load quickly so nothing lingers out in a nor'easter; through the summer shore rush we get an early jump and keep pieces out of the sun. Your window stands whether it is a January blow or a sticky August afternoon on Narragansett Bay.

We build it into the plan. The route is timed against I-95, Route 4, and Post Road, the Pell and Jamestown crossings get scheduled clear of the heaviest summer shore traffic, and the window we quoted you still stands.

Constantly. Runs across the Pell to Newport and Middletown, the Jamestown Verrazzano out to Conanicut, and up into Portsmouth are everyday work, and any tolls and crossing times are mapped and priced in advance so nothing stalls your move.

Yes, and it is already folded into your set price. Pianos have been part of our everyday work for years; those heavy, awkward pieces go on the correct board with proper straps and padding, handled by crews who have moved no end of them.

Yes. A lot of downtown Providence lofts and Newport and East Side buildings want a Certificate of Insurance plus a booked elevator or dock slot. Pass us the building's rules and we lodge the COI and reserve the window in advance.

We do, and the word is right there in our name. Your belongings sit in a clean, dry room for a week or most of a year, and that cost lives inside your written figure instead of arriving later as its own invoice.

A week or two of lead time covers most jobs, and the ends of months and the summer beach stretch book up first. If a crew opens up we will still slot in a same-week or next-day move, so a quick call never hurts.

We lay runners across the floors, pad the door casings and rails, and quilt-wrap the furniture before it moves, so the old address and the new one both come through clean, weathered shingle and brittle old plaster included.

The whole state, from our North Kingstown and Wickford home turf and the South County beaches up through Warwick, Cranston, and the capital, then over the bridges to Jamestown, Newport, and the rest of Aquidneck, with long-distance runs around New England on top.
