Let’s be honest: the most dread-inducing part of moving isn’t the new house, it’s the sheer physical labor of getting there. Between finding boxes, wrapping dishes, dismantling bed frames, and hauling heavy furniture, the to-do list never ends.
This is where hiring a full-service moving company changes the game. But what exactly is a full-service move? Does it mean you don’t have to lift a finger?
At RL Relocation, we specialize in making relocations seamless. Whether you are moving down the street in the Treasure Valley or crossing state lines, here is a breakdown of what you can expect when you book a full-service move.
1. Professional Packing Services
This is the defining feature of “full-service.” Instead of spending weeks living in a maze of half-packed boxes, professional packers can often get your entire home ready in a day or two.
As a premier moving company that residents trust, our teams are trained to pack efficiently and safely. We handle everything from your everyday books and clothes to your most delicate china and artwork. All packing materials and supplies can be purchased at an extra cost.
2. Furniture Disassembly and Protection
One of the hardest parts of a DIY move is wrestling with large furniture. Does that king-size bed frame fit through the door? How do you take the legs off the dining table?
In a full-service move, we handle the tools. We will disassemble large items like bed frames, sectional sofas, and tables. Each piece is then wrapped in professional-grade moving pads and shrink wrap to prevent scratches and dents during transit.
3. Loading, Transport, and Unloading
This is the heavy lifting—literally. Your movers will strategically load the truck to maximize space and ensure stability on the road.
If you are looking at long-distance moving companies, the transport phase is critical. Unlike some van lines that swap trucks or share space with other households, RL Relocation offers private transport. This means the same team that loads your goods drives them directly to your new home, ensuring a faster and safer delivery.
4. Unloading and Reassembly
The service doesn’t stop when the truck pulls into your new driveway. We will unload every box and piece of furniture, placing them exactly where you want them in your new rooms.
Remember that bed we took apart? We will put it back together for you so you can sleep in your own bed that very first night.
5. Optional Unpacking Services
Want the ultimate luxury experience? Full-service movers can also help you unpack. We can remove items from boxes and place them on flat surfaces, and then haul away all the empty boxes and packing debris. It transforms weeks of unpacking into a matter of hours.
Is a Full-Service Move Right for You?
While full-service moving costs more than a DIY rental truck, the value lies in the time, energy, and stress you save. It is the perfect solution for busy professionals, families with young children, or anyone who wants to enjoy the excitement of a new home without the back-breaking work.
