Long-Distance Movers

Relocating for the First Time? Here's What You Need to Know

To start your long-distance move, you will get an in-person or virtual survey to catalog your inventory and establish your specific moving needs. This step informs a detailed quote that includes all costs—packing, transportation, and any other services you opt for. On the move day, our professional movers securely pack your belongings, load them into our moving trucks, and ensure they are transported safely to your new location. Upon arrival, the team unloads and unpacks your items, placing them according to your preferences. Throughout this process, our customer service team remains readily available to address any questions or concerns.

What are the Costs Involved in Hiring a Long-Distance Moving Company?

Every moving company will offer Moving Valuation to keep you covered. Government regulation requires movers to offer 60 cents per pound per item as a minimum. Many moving companies will offer more protection, so you can be more covered, so speak with them about their options.

How Long Does a Long-Distance Move Typically Take, and How Is the Delivery Date Determined?

The duration of a long-distance move can vary based on factors like the distance of the move, the volume of items being transported, and the specific logistics of the move. The delivery date is typically determined by these factors, along with the moving company's schedule. If you have a specific date in mind, be sure to reach out to your moving company as soon as possible, as spots can fill up fast.

With Discipled Movers, we are able to streamline the long-distance moving process as an independent moving company. When you work with an interstate agent of a van line, they will need to work with other agents, connecting with them as they cross state lines and moving your belongings from one truck to another. This slows your move down and even increases your chance of damage to your items. As an independent moving company, we are able to take your belongings straight from your current house to your new home, with one truck, one driver, and one crew.

What Kind of Experience and Training Do the Company's Movers Have with Regard to Moving Fragile or Valuable Items?

At Discipled Movers, our team members are background-checked and trained to handle all types of items, including fragile and valuable ones. Whether it's a piece of fine art, an antique, or a valuable musical instrument like a piano, we have the expertise to move it safely.For any items that are worth more than $100 per pound per article, you should declare them as an Item of Extraordinary Value to ensure they are covered properly.

What is the Process for Resolving Disputes or Filing Claims for Damaged or Lost Items?

In the event that an item is damaged or lost during the move, moving companies always have a process for filing claims. Customers typically need to report the issue when the move is completed so the mover knows they did it, and the company investigates the claim accordingly.

At Discipled Movers, we are committed to handling any disputes or claims in a fair, efficient manner. If there's an issue, we urge customers to let our driver know and contact us immediately at (720) 994-7776. As a locally-owned company, we value our reputation and strive to ensure every client is satisfied with our service.

Are There Any Restrictions or Rules That I Should Be Aware of for a Long-Distance Move?

Certain rules and restrictions apply to long-distance moves called tariffs. They basically refer to pricing. They vary by state, so be sure to ask your potential moving company about them. There may be limitations on the types of items that can be transported, specific packing requirements, and often time constraints for scheduling the move.
