Moving Help FAQ: Everything You Wanted to Ask (But Maybe Didn’t)
Moving Help FAQ: Everything You Wanted to Ask (But Maybe Didn’t)
We get it — moving brings up a LOT of questions.
At Ward Brothers, we believe in making things easy, clear, and maybe even a little fun.
Here’s a quick FAQ to answer some of the top questions we hear from customers just like you:
How far in advance should I book moving help?
The sooner, the better — especially during busy seasons like spring and summer. Weekends are also notoriously busy.
Ideally, book 2–4 weeks in advance to lock in your preferred moving day. (Need last-minute help? We do offer same-day service when available — just ask!)
What’s included when you hire Ward Brothers?
When you book with Ward Brothers, you get:
Professional movers (with muscle and manners)
Moving equipment (like dollies, straps, and blankets)
Loading and/or unloading help
Friendly, efficient service that treats your stuff with care
Need furniture pickup or help with a few heavy items? We do that too!
What affects the cost of my move?
A few things can impact your final price:
How much stuff you have
How long it takes to load and unload
The distance between locations
Stairs, elevators, tricky parking, or long carrying distances
Same-day or last-minute requests
Special items (like pianos, safes, or super-heavy furniture)
(Stay tuned — we’re working on a simple moving cost calculator to make it even easier!)
Do you move heavy or specialty items?
Absolutely — we move couches, dressers, appliances, mattresses, you name it.
If you have something extra large, extra fragile, or extra awkward, just let us know ahead of time so we can come prepared.
How should I prepare for moving day?
Here’s a quick checklist:
✅ Finish packing before movers arrive (unless you booked packing help)
✅ Label boxes clearly (fragile, room names, etc.)
✅ Clear pathways inside your home
✅ Reserve elevators if you’re in an apartment or high-rise
✅ Keep essentials (wallet, phone, chargers) with you
✅ Stay hydrated and relax — you’re in good hands!

We’ll do our best to work with your new timeline and make the process smooth.
