Description Of Work:
Moved a few pieces of furniture from a house to a 3rd floor apartment with no elevators.
Member Comments:
Scheduling was easy. Don and Mike were prompt and got the job done in a timely fashion. We only had a few pieces to move but getting to the 3rd floor apartment via very narrow hallways and stair cases posed a challenge. They worked very hard but were still pleasant at the end. We will definitely use this company again.

Plan ahead. Even if you’re just moving across town, finding out at the last minute that you have to carry Fluffy in the car because no one planned for a box or kennel will leave you filled with regret — and covered with claw marks.
Trust me on that…
* Make the move stress-free on your pet. Emotions tend to be high when moving, so if Spot pees on the floor of the car, cut him some slack. If you haven’t packed cleaning supplies for just such an emergency, refer back to the tip about planning ahead.
* You might want to have them stay at a neighbor during the packing and loading to keep them from the line of fire. Or at least put them in a kennel while the movers do their thing.
* Give your animal water often. Also, plan for breaks to let them get a little fresh air. It will be easier for everyone to take that extra time.
* Let your pet get used to its new home in its own time. If your furry friend wants to hide under the sofa for three days, it’s cool. The neighbors will all get a chance to meet the pets in due time, no matter how badly your kids want to show them off. Allowing them to acclimate to their new space will also help prevent lost or confused pets in a new neighborhood.
Nothing’s worse than letting a nervous calico out into a new neighborhood only to have it disappear trying to find its old home.
* Try to keep the animals in the same routine as you did before the move to reassure them. If they took a walk just before bed or ate exactly at 10 a.m., make sure that happens for them during and after the move as well.
* Don’t forget to call the airline if you are traveling by air — in fact, call several weeks or even months in advance. Airlines have different policies on how pets can travel. If the airline wants to put Max in an unheated cargo hold and that’s not OK with you, you’ll know. Make educated choices about how your pets travel.
* Don’t discount the importance of visiting a veterinarian and asking for sedatives for your animal. It can make the difference between a simple move and a gut-wrenching odyssey. A vet can also help you with moving plans if you have more exotic pets that need special care.
* Don’t let anyone convince you they can move a 55-gallon fish tank in the moving van half-full of water and fish. Bad idea. Bag up your fish in plastic bags with water from their tank, and close with rubber bands. Leave the bag about half full of air, and pack them into a cheap Styrofoam cooler for the trip. If you don’t want your expensive fish tank to leak or have cracks in it when you get to your new destination, make sure it travels empty. Ask me how I know.
* Don’t expect several animals to travel in a car together without being confined. Even though the cat and dog love each other and are familiar with each other, the excitement of the trip will have your car feeling like a Wiley Coyote cartoon. Get individual kennels for each animal.
* Don’t forget to give your animals some extra love during this time of adjustment. This is tougher on them than it is on you (though at the end of the move you might find that hard to believe). The whole reason you are having them move with you is they are important to your family.
Just try to remember that when your car smells like cat litter, there is dog slobber on the baby, and no one can find the hamster. Finally, these are just some of the great moving tips from Men on the Move.
