What We Do
​
Moving, Packing & Freight Delivery Services
A moving and packing company with freight and freight-forward delivery capabilities provides comprehensive transportation and handling solutions for residential, commercial, and industrial clients. These services extend beyond traditional moving to include professional packing, freight coordination, and final-mile delivery of goods and equipment.
​
Residential & Commercial Moving
The company manages the relocation of household goods, offices, and commercial spaces, including planning, loading, transportation, unloading, and placement. Services are designed to minimize disruption, maintain organization, and protect property throughout the move.
​
Professional Packing Services
Packing services include the preparation and protection of items using commercial-grade materials and proven techniques. This may involve full-service packing, partial packing, fragile-only packing, and preparation for storage or freight shipment. Items are labeled and organized to support efficient unloading and reinstallation.
​
Freight Handling & Transportation
In addition to moving services, the company transports palletized goods, equipment, fixtures, and oversized items under appropriate operating authority. Freight services may include regional and interstate transport, dedicated runs, and scheduled deliveries using company-owned vehicles and trained crews.
​
Freight Forwarding & White-Glove Last-Leg Delivery
Freight-forward delivery services support the final stage of transportation, moving goods from terminals, warehouses, or docks to their final destination. This includes appointment coordination, lift-gate delivery when required, inside placement, unpacking, debris removal, and installation or setup when requested. These services are commonly used by manufacturers, retailers, designers, and commercial clients.
​
Specialty & Oversized Item Handling
The company provides specialized handling for heavy, oversized, fragile, or high-value items such as machinery, medical equipment, artwork, and custom furniture. Services may include disassembly, custom packing or crating, secure transport, and precise placement at delivery.
​
Integrated & Accountable Service Model
Because packing, transportation, and delivery are handled by the same team, there are fewer handoffs and greater accountability. This integrated model reduces risk, improves communication, and ensures consistency across all phases of the move or delivery.
