Contact us by phone or through our online form. We'll gather details about your move, including your locations, moving date, and the size of your home.
Plan Your Move
We'll discuss your inventory, any packing services you need, and answer any questions. Then we'll prepare a detailed, no-obligation estimate tailored to your move.
Reserve the Right Truck
We coordinate the appropriate U-Haul truck for your move, ensuring it's the right size for your belongings and ready on moving day.
Professional Loading & Transportation
On moving day, our experienced movers carefully wrap, protect, and load your furniture and belongings. We then transport everything safely to your new home.
Unload & Settle In
Once we arrive, we'll unload your belongings and place furniture and boxes in the rooms you choose, helping make your move-in as smooth as possible.
We Return Home Efficiently
After your move is complete, we choose the most cost-effective way for our crew to return home. For longer moves, this often means returning the U-Haul at your destination and flying home. For shorter distances, we may drive the truck back. This approach helps us keep our operating costs down while providing reliable long-distance moving service.

FAQ
Long-Distance Moving FAQs
Everything you need to know before requesting a quote.
We take long-distance moves out of the Quad Cities region across state lines. Tell us where you're headed and we'll confirm scheduling and pricing for that route.
We coordinate the right-sized U-Haul truck for your move so you don't have to guess at capacity. Truck cost is spelled out in your estimate up front.
We can. Some customers pack everything themselves and just want loading and transport; others want us to wrap and box the whole house. Both are fine — we price it either way.
Distance, home size, labor hours, truck size, and any packing services all factor in. You get a detailed, no-obligation estimate before anything is booked.
Whichever way is cheapest for you: on longer moves we usually drop the U-Haul at your destination and fly home, and on shorter routes we drive the truck back.
Cash, check, or Venmo. We don't take cards.
