News, announcements, tips and things

How long will the job take?

These are general estimates (using a two-person crew) based on our experience. Of course, every job is unique!

So for example you would like to hire us to load and unload your household goods using a 17-ft truck. If would be safe to assume it could take up to five hours. Probably not longer than that and quite possibly less time than that. Third floor apartments obviously add time. Condo and apartment buildings with elevators add time. Long steep drive ways can add time.

We highly recommend a three-person crew when loading and unloading a 26-ft truck (sometimes a 17-ft truck as well). Generally, the final cost will be about the same, but the job will take less time and the entire process is much smoother and more efficient.
