Frequently Asked Questions
How far in advance should I book my move in Queens?
Feel free to book your move a couple of weeks in advance, but we’re set up to accommodate your needs on short notice.
Does Big John’s Moving provide packing services?
Yes, Big John’s Moving offers full-service packing and unpacking as an add-on service. Our experienced team uses high-quality materials and techniques to securely pack your belongings, ensuring they are safe during transit. If you prefer to handle your packing, we also provide packing supplies, including boxes, bubble wrap and tape, so you can take care of the job yourself.
How do you ensure the safety of my belongings during the move?
At Big John’s Moving, we prioritize the safety of your belongings with careful handling and secure packing methods. Our trained moving professionals use protective blankets, shrink wrap, and custom crating for fragile or high-value items like art and electronics. We also make sure that our moving trucks are equipped with proper restraints to keep everything in place during transit. Additionally, we are fully licensed and insured, providing added peace of mind that your items are protected throughout the move.
What should I do to prepare for moving day?
- Create an inventory list of items to be moved: Take time to go through all your belongings and list everything being moved.
- Label boxes with room names to help with organization: Clearly label each box with the room it belongs to, as well as a brief description of the contents. This makes unpacking easier and helps everything end up in the right place, saving you time when you settle into your new home.
- Disassemble large furniture (if possible) to make loading easier: If you can, take apart large furniture like beds, bookshelves, or dining tables before moving day. This not only makes the furniture easier to move but also helps prevent damage during transport.
- Clear pathways for easy access to the truck: Make sure all hallways, doorways and stairs are clear of obstacles to allow for smooth and quick loading.
- Set aside essential items like toiletries and a change of clothes: Pack a small bag with things you’ll need immediately upon arriving at your new home, such as toiletries, medications and a fresh set of clothes.
- Make arrangements for the care of pets and plants on moving day: If you’re moving a long distance, it’s important to have a plan for transporting them separately, as moving companies typically don’t handle these items.
- Confirm the moving time and details with Big John’s Moving: A day or two before your move, double-check all the details with the moving company, including the scheduled time and location, as well as any special instructions or concerns.
“We were thrilled with the job the guys at Big Johns did. When they first came to our apt and we gave them a sense of the job, Mike was already familiar with our new building and made us feel comfortable with the process. Come packing day, he and his team arrived right on time and packed our 2BR 2BA apt in about 3 hours… slightly ahead of schedule. The following day the arrived first thing to move us to our new place. They were quick, efficient and friendly and the price was very close to the final estimate they gave us. We would recommend them to any one very highly.”
“Big John’s Moving is the best in the business! I’ve moved many times in my life and Big John’s has been my preferred mover each and every time. This move was particularly stressful as I had several delivery points in the city as well as Maryland. From the estimator, to the office staff, to each and every crew member, I felt completely safe and secure knowing that every piece of my furniture, from the antique dresser to my every day dishes, were well taken care of. All the items made it to the delivery point with no damages because they made sure to wrap every piece with padded blankets. At the end of the move, I couldn’t be happier. Big John’s certainly transformed a potentially horrific moving experience into a pleasant one and I will continue to recommend them to all my friends and colleagues. Thank you, Big John’s!!”
“Big John’s Moving, Inc. what can we say? For once we got it right when choosing a moving company to haul our lives from NY to Houston! From beginning to end, I’ve never seen a more organized, professional, reasonably priced moving service in all my life. The estimator was great, their marketing portfolio, the office staff, the drivers, the trucks, the packing materials, the movers – same guys on both ends – not a scratch on anything, and we’re talking antique buffet table, a huge grandfather clock, expensive antique chair, breakable statues, tons of dishes and personal stuff – nothing was damaged, nothing was lost. They even warehoused our stuff between houses for almost a month for no additional charge!! They treated our belongings as if they owned them. These fellows have all been with Big John for 10 – 20 -30 yrs, no wonder he’s running such a tight operation. If you are moving local OR long distance – decide how important your stuff is, then call BIG JOHN. You will not be disappointed! THANK YOU BIG JOHN, YOU ARE THE BEST!”
