Long Distance Moving
Let’s Take Care of the Heavy Lifting
As your trusted neighborhood mover, we focus on treating your belongings with care. We want to help you have a stress free day on moving day. Our movers arrive on-site to take care of the most difficult aspects of your move, from packing your fine china to getting your couch out of the entryway. Our group is likewise happy to shrink wrap and pad your furniture for added assurance. Amid the stacking and transportation process, we pad all of your furniture with quilt padding to mitigate the danger of bumps and scratches. You better believe your belongings will be safe with us! In addition to the packing, hauling and unloading services, This Side Up Moving offers you peace of mind. Our services and fees are transparent with no hidden fees because we believe that the last thing you should have to worry about during a stressful move is your moving company.
Tips Before You Move
Below we have compiled some tips that may assist our customers during the pre-move process.
- Do not pack with masking tape or slim cellophane tape. Use PVC (poly-vinyl chloride).
- 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.
- Pack similar items together. Try not to pack a fragile china figurine in a similar container with cast iron frying pan, for instance.
- Wind electrical cords, tightening them so they don’t dangle.
- Seal containers firmly with tape, aside from those containing things that must be left open for the van operator’s inspection.

Top 3 Reasons Why Is Moving Hard
Moving would take so much time and energy from you if you are not guided properly. Experienced company like This Side Up Moving is your best solution to ease the stress of moving.
1. Moving is the third most stressful event in life, only behind death and divorce. That should only make hiring the best option even more pivotal.
2. Hiring a moving company is often cheaper when you consider how much longer it will take you to do it, factoring in the risk of injury and breaking property. Renting a truck is oftentimes a major component that costs more for you to rent than to pay for a company.
3. If possible, keep your boxes after a move. They usually can be used 1 or 2 more times and be capable of safely holding the weight.
Testimonials of Our clients
A co-worker recommended This Side Up Moving and I am glad I went with this company. The level of communication was phenomenal. Cameron and Kanoa were careful, respectful and even shared a few pointers on how to safely assemble/disassemble some of my pieces of furniture. While there was an issue with the truck, This Side Up was more than supportive and accommodating. I would recommend and would also use in the future.

I had a great experience with Jamar and Dylan from This Side Up Moving. I thought the pricing was fair and they did a quick and efficient job. They were courteous and professional, and although I was hesitant to use a moving company at first (this was my first time), I was so glad that I did, as it made a stressful event much more manageable.

Antonio and Kenneth just left my house and I can not say enough WONDERFUL things about them! They communicated extremely well with each other and myself, and handled my dog and kids patiently.They finished moving 12 big, bulky furniture pieces up a steep flight of 2nd story stairs effortlessly. They even helped me rearrange some things in my downstairs before they left!As far as the corporate side- Shelby was my coordinator and was friendly, easy toUnderstand, and gave me thorough breakdown of cost. I have moved 5 times and I will definitely be calling “This SIDE UP” for all my future moves!

The movers that serviced us today were Joey and Dee. These guys came in, accessed the situation and got right to work. Joey took charge to get the job done and D was right there with him. It took less than 3 hours from start to finish. I was very impressed with their skill, speed and professionalism. Joey and D are an asset to This Side Up moving company.

Had a fantastic experience all around with these folks. Moved halfway across the US for a reasonable price. Joey and Kanoi (I hope that's the right name) are pros. Fast, efficient, and not a scuff on anything.

Brett led a team with Ken, Tory, Jordan, and D. Great guys - professional movers. I've been moved by the largest and this team was by far the easiest to work with. Their estimates were spot on too. If you are moving - use them, you won't be disappointed.

This Side Up Moving made our recent move a wonderful experience. The staff were all extremely professional and courteous. Everything went smoothly from the estimate by Matthew, to the packing/loading and delivery. We have a lot of antiques and the loading team (Brett, Dareon, and Jayden) took extra care to ensure they were well protected. They were quick and efficient in their loading process. Alvin, Mason, and Kanoa delivered our household goods the next day. They were also very efficient in the unloading process. They took extra care not to scratchthe floors of the new house, which we truly appreciate. They also unloaded a gun safe from our F-250 that my husband had picked up earlier in the day (all pre-arranged with This Side Up Moving). An absolutely amazing team! Kristi and Shelby (I hope I have the names right) we kind and very customer oriented as well. They answered all my questions quickly...excellent customer service! I would highly recommend This Side Up Moving for any move, local or out-of-state. Thank you for an excellent moving experience!!

Very happy with this company. From the initial phone call to final item they were professional and respectful. Shelby was polite and informative during my initial call. This being my first time using a moving company she answered questions I didn’t even know I had 😀. Then Mason and Zak were efficient, nice, and treated myself and my furniture with respect. They even finished 30 minutes earlier than expected which saved us some money. Would highly recommend the company for any of your moving needs.

This Side Up Moving and Storage is the RIGHT side up for me! The men, Torrey, Jamarr, Joey, and Kenneth, are professional and great to work with. The estimating process is easy, quick, and accurate. The Packers knocked out the task under the estimated time. Thank you This Side Up team!

This Side Up movers moved my family on August 11, which was the hottest day of the year! The movers were diligent, careful, conscientious, and very polite- even with a heat index of 110F and I can’t even imagine how hot it was in the back of the truck. They moved my mother-in-law’s precious piano like it was their own family heirloom. We can’t express our thanks enough to Jordan, Kenneth, Kaliah, and Gerrod. An outstanding experience overall.

Outstanding job today by Jay, Jordan and Dillon! They were very thorough in protecting each item before loading the truck. Then took extra care to ensure that everything was placed exactly where we wanted it.My move is divided into (2) parts - today they moved us from the apartment to the new house. On Monday, they’ll move the rest of our belongings from storage. I’ve requested Jay, Jordan and Dillon again for the move on Monday, great crew!This Side Up took provided top notch service. I highly recommend giving Kristy a call if you’re planning a move!Thanks guys!

This Side Up Moving is definitely the way to go! All of the staff that we either spoke to on the phone or spoke with in person were so helpful and friendly. Due to us moving into a new build and our closing being pushed back, we had some scheduling issues (for us, not the moving company). This Side Up was very understanding and worked with us on getting our belongings moved to the new location as soon as they could. As far as the actual movers, they did amazing! We had Zack, Calvin, Garrod, Marcus and Brett. They were so careful with our belongings and our new walls! Not one scratch even in a tight 90 degree staircase! I was very impressed with Zack and Garrod getting some lager pieces upstairs. Everyone was very respectful of both houses and all of our stuff. I highly recommend this company for your next move!

We use TSU for our resident moves and as usual, the team they provided for our resident were so professional and kind. Zack, Gerrod, and Kanoa did such a great job and were kind to her during such an emotional time for her. Would highly recommend this moving company to any one of our incoming families. They always have such a quick and hassle free response as well!

First, I started off by contacting three local moving companies in the Huntsville, AL area. Kristy, at "This Side Up", was the only one that offered an immediate and friendly explanation of their moving procedures, policies and how I might fit into their service and schedule in a timely manner. It was a clear and easy decision to sign-up with 'This Side Up" for my move.The best part of my interface with "This Side UP" was with the packjng and moving personnel of the company. It was obvious that the company culture centered on the customer with professional, friendly and accommodating support by all of the workers. Few organizations are able to have workers that are so focused on productivity in such a cheerful and cooperative manner. Each worker gave me the satisfaction that they were not just handling my possessions but were personally caring for each item that they packed or moved.During the packing, I had to change some appointments dealing with the sale of my home. "This Side Up" managers readily adapted their schedule to meet my needs. I really appreciated this support.The highlight of the move was that I had no damage at all - no nicks on my furniture and no dents in my walls. This is what a truly professional moving company is all about. I wholeheartedly recommend "This Side Up" to handle any and all of your moving needs.
