Frequently Asked Questions
Are you familiar with the senior living facilities in the St. Louis area?
We frequently collaborate with communities like Clarendale, Aberdeen Heights, Brookdale, and Friendship Village, among many others. Additionally, we are the preferred partner for esteemed locations such as The Gatesworth in St. Louis and The Lumiere in Chesterfield.
Do you work with the building contacts to make sure everything is set up for the move?
Yes, our local move coordinator will coordinate with your senior living facility to ensure that elevator and loading dock reservations, insurance certificates, and any other necessary requirements are all arranged before moving day.
Can you take care of packing anything I haven't finished?
We’re happy to arrange packing services before your move begins. If needed, we can also assist with packing any remaining items on loading day. Please note that this may increase the cost based on the volume and type of items packed, but our crew is always ready to accommodate your packing needs.
Will you help unpack my boxes and take them away?
We do offer unpacking services! Please note that this service includes unpacking your items and placing them on a nearby flat surface, such as a table, counter, or bed. It does not include putting the items away. We recommend organizing and putting away your belongings as they are unpacked. If you would like assistance with putting your items away, we can certainly arrange that as well—just let your estimator know you’d like this additional service.
Do you require a deposit? When do I pay?
No deposit is required. Payment must be confirmed at least one day before the move. Any additional charges for extra services or time will be billed separately after the move is finished. Similarly, if any refunds are due, they will be processed once the move is complete.
What time will the packers/driver arrive on move dates?
Your move coordinator will provide a two-hour time window the afternoon before services are scheduled to begin. This allows you to plan accordingly and ensures that you have a clear understanding of when the moving team will arrive.
