LaPalm Moving Companies Services
Long Distance Moving
LaPalm Moving Systems is a member of a network of moving companies for Allied Van Lines which stretches around the globe. With the expertise of our local staff and our associates, we can provide the quality move you deserve.
The moving process begins with the estimate. Since long distance moves are based on weight, our moving consultant will come to your home to determine the weight of your belongings. It is our responsibility to provide an accurate estimate for the cost of any moving related service you require.
We always attempt to provide competitive pricing and still retain our quality service.
Our household moving provides QUALITY service. Your furniture is wrapped and your residence is protected and replacement value protection is available on all moves.
Local Moves
Where long distance pricing is determined by weight, local moves are typically calculated on an hourly basis. Depending on the work required, we can provide a moving van with two or more workers. You can expect the same quality service on your local move. We can help you reduce the cost of your local move by advising on how best to prepare for moving day. Move readiness is the key to a successful move.

If you are moving to a different state, the charges will be based on the weight of your
shipment and mileage—these are referred to as the transportation charges.
There are a variety of different moving charges that can potentially appear on your estimate,
so be sure to ask your relocation specialist to explain each charge for you.
Some additional charges that may appear include packing, crating, valuation or coverage,
bulky article charge (for oversized items), and extra labor. Again, please be certain you
fully understand these charges so that you can accurately compare the estimates you receive.
All movers are required to prepare an order for service before they transport your shipment.
The order for service provides you with written confirmation of the moving services that you
requested to be performed in conjunction with your shipment. It also lists the agreed upon
dates for the pickup and delivery of your shipment and amount of valuation that you requested,
along with any special services that you ordered.
It also features a place and telephone number where the mover can contact you during the move.
Additionally, the order for service shows the charges that you will be assessed for your
household move or corporate relocation. If you are moving under a non-binding estimate,
the order for service will indicate the amount of the estimated non-binding charges,
the method of payment for the charges and, in cases where the actual charges exceed the
non-binding estimate, the maximum amount that you are required to pay at the time of delivery
in order to obtain possession of your shipment (you will have 30 days following delivery to
pay the balance of the charges due). If you are moving under a binding estimate,
the order for service will show the charges that you will be required to pay at delivery,
based on the binding estimate and the terms of payment. You and your mover must sign the
order for service.
