This package is a great choice for these reasons:

  • Moving protection: Everything you own is valuable and you want to ensure it’s protected against damage or loss. While you can count on our experts to handle your belongings safely, having them insured guarantees that you will be compensated if anything unfortunate occurs.
  • In-home/video tour: We provide in-home or video tours to help assess your needs and make the packing process easier.
  • Great communication: Staying in touch with your mover helps ensure that your questions, concerns, and requests are addressed. You can call or email us anytime you need to go over your moving plan, inventory, or your moving date.

Having a moving in/out box makes it easy for you to access the items that you need during the move such as toiletries. We’ll help you determine what those items are and pack them closest to the door so you can access them easily.

Tips Before You Move

Below we have compiled some tips that may assist our customers during the pre-move process.

  1. Do not pack with masking tape or slim cellophane tape. Use PVC (poly-vinyl chloride).
  2. Utilize newspapers just to cushion belongings, not for wrapping things. The ink on the newspapers may rub off and can recolor items, for example, fine china.
  3. Pack similar items together. Try not to pack a fragile china figurine in a similar container with cast iron frying pan, for instance.
  4. Wind electrical cords, tightening them so they don’t dangle.
  5. Seal containers firmly with tape, aside from those containing things that must be left open for the van operator’s inspection.

8 Critical Things You Need To Prepare For Movers

Getting ready to move? Here’s 8 tips on moving effectively while using a moving company like us.

Be Thorough

  • When hiring a mover, make sure you and the company are fully aware of all property to be moved
  • Often, a mover can do an in-home or video tour
  • Don’t always choose the lowest price, that doesn’t mean the best

Review Their Estimate

  • Even if you feel you talked about everything, review the estimate
  • Walk through your house and property to check off any line items
  • Make note of additional concerns and contact the mover

If Possible, Make an Inventory

  • The average American home has a lot of individual items
  • Inventory as much as possible, emphasizing your expensive items
  • This allows you to check your moved property at your new location to make sure everything made it

If You are Packing, Pack Smart

  • Avoid mixing items from different rooms in the same box
  • Give plenty of time for your kitchen
  • Pack important and sentimental in specially marked boxes for easy access
  • Make sure the movers leave boxes you need quickly closest to the door.

Establish a Set Moving Date as Soon as Possible.

  • You don’t want the date to be a guess.
  • You need to be mentally prepared for the move.
  • Make time to prepare your home and pack certain special, fragile objects. This is never good to do in a rush.

Know What Cannot Be Transported

  • Ask your mover for a list of things they won’t move
  • It’s usually chemicals or money and varies with each mover
  • Contact us to talk about items you might have concerns with

Create a Packing Plan

  • While the mover may do most of the packing, have a plan
  • We have done a lot of moves but we don’t know your preferences
  • If possible, email it to the mover before the moving day

Establish Knowledge about Insurance

  • Talk to your mover about insurance
  • Ask what it does and does not cover

Antonio and Jeff were so professional in moving my parents things to Birmingham. We had lots of antiques and they handled everything with great care. I’ve used moving companies before but never as good as This Side Up Moving. Thank you Antonio and Jeff. Plus they were very fair with pricing. Couldn’t have been happier.

Alvin, Kanoa, and Zak were the perfect people for this job. It took six people from another moving company to move our family piano previously, and they handled it easily. They were professional, courteous and the entire process was effortless.

Jeff and Trent were amazing! They were both very considerate in the placement of furniture, making sure I was pleased with where it was and never complaining when I asked to move it over. They took great care in moving and wrapping all of my furniture. They didn't even break a sweat moving everything up a flight of stairs. I highly recommend using This Side Up. THANK YOU again to Jeff and Trent!

From start to finish, This Side Up did an outstanding job with our move. They came highly recommended to us by two friends, and they are worth every penny. We’ve always handled our own local moves, and even though my husband was hesitant at first to hire it out, he thanked me several times afterward for talking him into it. This Side Up has great folks working for them! Eliot did the most thorough estimate, so that we knew exactly what it would take. We are so thankful for our load crew: Alvin, Antonio, Jonathan, Kalai, and for our unload crew:Kanoa, Jeffery, and Jonathan.Mike, the director of operations, even came by during unload. Can’t say enough about This Side Up’s work ethic and great attitudes.

This was absolutely the best move experience we have ever had, and we have moved alot due to years in the military. From start to finish, all people at This Side Up Moving were very professional, respectful, and honest. Special 5 Star mention to our packers: Antonio, Zack, Jay, and Kalai. They were very careful in packing our belongings, and asked questions if needed. First time ever, not one item was broken when we unpacked! For the moving portion, we had Antonio, Zack, and Jay. They arrived promptly, unloaded, and set up bed frames, etc. Also a 5 star experience. Thank you to office staff and Eliot as well. Will be recommending you to our friends in Huntsville for sure.

This is a follow up to my post a week ago. There was a misunderstanding and when TSUM learned of it, they immediately took care of it and made right. Being a VET I have moved around. This really is the best moving company I have dealt with. Once again if you want two great men, ask for Alvin L. and Shai L.

Jeremy and Brett were nothing short of AMAZING! As a single mom of a 3 year old, moving from a house to an apartment and on a time crunch is so stressful. But these 2 guys took the stress out of moving; they were so kind and easygoing. They even interacted with my son and let him observe what they were doing with no complaint. They also took fantastic care of my many belongings. Not a box torn, not one piece of furniture damaged, not one ding left behind from moving out to moving in. Impeccable customer service, extremely professional, but also great banter. I highly recommend This Side Up moving. Thank you so much Jeremy ands Brett for all your assistance!!

Amazing! Great price, fast, and professional! We used This Side Up to move from one side of town to the other. Savannah gave us the best quote, and was very thorough and professional on the phone. On moving day, Jordan and Jeremy were there on time. They were very professional and very fast. They got us moved in an hour less than our estimated time (and we had more boxes than we had originally guessed). They work very hard and were more than helpful with all our requests and questions. This Side Up is the best. Highly recommend!

All 5 guys on our moving crew had an amazing attitude, great work ethic, and ready smiles. We've moved. A lot. So, I have more experience than I'd like with moving crews. This Side Up sets the bar high. Eliot moved schedules and worked with the team to ensure we could get the dates we needed. The team was INCREDIBLE. They packed the entire house and loaded our truck. I can't say enough positive things about Antonio, Kobe, Jordan, Noah, and Kalai. I'd gladly work with all 5 of these gentlemen again (although I hope we're not moving any time soon!) Call This Side Up if you're looking for movers. Don't hesitate.
