Marquette Mover's Home Moving Process Step-By-Step
Step One:
Our local booking agent will draft an estimate based on all
of the available information. We will ask for inventory, loading and/or unloading situation and detailed questions
about any specialty or oversized items
Finalize the Move
Step Two:
Secure the help you need by reading thru and agreeing to our service agreement, estimate and placing a fully refundable deposit.
Prepare for the day
Step Three:
Marquette Movers suggest that you begin packing upwards of two weeks before your move date, saving the kitchen and bathrooms last. Our team of packers can help
this process by bringing all appropriate materials such boxes, bubble-wrap, tape and markers - and accurately labeling for a smooth unload. If the customer prefers that they pack, we are happy to bring the materials to you at no extra cost,
Home Sweet Home
Step Four:
Moving Day
You will be politely reminded of your move the day before, and once again when the movers are en route. Upon arrival, the movers will introduce themselves, and get all important information needed that was not previously gathered. Our driver will bring the moving truck as close as we reasonably can to the access point, while the movers make sure a path is clear, and floor runners are laid. At this point, any furniture not already disassembled will be broken down. It takes our crew three to five hours to pack a full truck, and two to three hours to unload, Unless if there is more than four hours of travel in the same day, we will have your move completed in one full work day.

At Marquette Movers, we understand that members of our community (and beyond) don't always have the extra cushion to afford premium moving services. Discount movers, or "move-helpers" often fill this niche, replacing the money you would have spent with damaged furniture. Please don't make that mistake. If you find yourself contemplating the cheaper mover, please ask us if we can price-match before looking elsewhere - Zachary Schneider
