5 . Does it cost more to move my office or my home?
-
This depends on a few factors, such as sq. footage, travel distance from your old and new place, and what type of items you’re moving. A bigger place most likely consists of more things, which would take more time and more movers to efficiently wrap, pack, and load items onto a moving truck. Depending on the quantity of items and how large some of them are, more than one truck may be necessary as well.
Additionally, if you have really heavy or awkward items, like pianos, or the need for disassembly and reassembly of items, extra movers on hand may be required for safe handling.
