OUR MOVING PROCESS
"The Jonah's Movers Way"
ARRIVAL
Be sure you're prepared for the movers by following our pre-move checklist!

-
After introductions, you can show the entire crew around during our preliminary walkthrough. Let the guys know what is going, staying, and any special instructions.
-
Your crew leader will confirm the contract is correct with you while the rest of the crew gets started!
PREPARATION
-
The crew begin by laying out floor runners to protect hardwood & tile flooring.
-
We will use professional dollies to move boxes & anything in hallways so the coast is clear when we start moving furniture.
-
We then take apart beds, cribs, certain tables & desks, and any other furniture that would be safer to transport disassembled.
-
TV's, pictures, and other wall decor will be shrinkwrapped & blanket-protected and surrounded by even more pads and strapped securely to one wall of the moving truck.
-
Each crew member will split into separate rooms and protect each piece of furniture with blankets, shrinkwrap, and tape. See how we protect each & every piece of furniture:
THE MOVE
-
After items are protected, the crew will begin safely loading the truck & securing items down as needed.
-
Solid furniture is loaded on the bottom with lighter furniture & boxes stacked above.
-
Appliances & wall decor are typically loaded on the truck last and strapped down individually to prevent damages in transit.
-
Before departing from your first location, your crew leader will walkthrough you through the home to make sure we have everything you need.
-
Your crew leader will make sure the new address is correct before heading out to lunch. Lunch is off-the-clock and typically takes 30 minutes to 1 hour.
-
Once arrived at your new place, the crew will ask for a quick walkthrough to see where everything needs to go. We'll then get started with the unload, making sure to place each item in the room & specific spot that you'd like.
-
After reassembling your items, the crew will make sure to pick up trash & take away blankets & used moving materials; leaving your new home as clean as we found it.
FINAL WALKTHROUGH
-
As the crew finishes the last few things up, your crew leader will take you on one final walkthrough to ensure everything is exactly how you want it. Take advantage of us while we're there!
-
Once everything is finished up, Your crew leader will stop the clock & add up the total move costs.

Final payment can be made with cash, check, or card on-site with your crew leader.
