OUR SERVICES

MOVING HELP FOR EVERY KIND OF MOVE

we bring the same care to every move.

Studio

SMALL SPACE. SAME LEVEL OF CARE.

Studio moves may be smaller, but your belongings matter just as much. We’ll get you packed up, moved, and settled without making a simple move complicated.

Two bedrooms and a tight hallway

Stairs, elevators, long hallways, and awkward corners—we've seen it. We’ll figure out the hard part so you don’t have to.

The whole home, handled whole

There’s a lot more than furniture under that roof. We’ll move it with the kind of care we’d want someone to give our own home.

Being new in town and not having a personal recommendation, I was worried about choosing a moving company. What if they were late, didn't show up, or didn't handle my things respectfully?! Had a great experience working with these young men they are on time punctual and meet their deadlines.

I had an excellent experience with Merit Moving unloading my truck. The team was professional, knowledgeable, careful with my belongings, and most importantly, incredibly efficient. The owner, Matt, is a great guy, and the Operations Manager, TJ, is the epitome of how a moving company should treat its customers. Their communication, professionalism, and commitment to excellent service made the entire process stress-free. If you're looking for a reliable moving company, don't hesitate to book with Merit Moving. I highly recommend them!

FAQs

Find quick answers to some of the most common questions about moving with Merit.

How is pricing calculated?

Pricing is based on the details of your move, including the number of bedrooms, stairs, distance, and special items like appliances or workout equipment. Give us the details, and we’ll make sure your quote accounts for what your move actually needs.

What happens if my move takes longer than expected?

No panic. Moves don’t always go exactly according to plan. Since local moves are hourly, we’ll keep working and communicate with you along the way.

How far ahead to book?

A week or two ahead is best—the more notice, the better. Moving last minute? Call us right away and we’ll see what we can make work.

What if I need to change my moving date?

Things happen. Contact us as soon as you know something has changed, and we’ll work with you based on our availability.

Can you pick up furniture from a store or another home?

Absolutely. Whether it’s a new couch from a store, a Facebook Marketplace find, or furniture from another home, we can pick it up and get it where it needs to go.

Do I need to have everything packed before you arrive?

Ideally, boxes should be packed and ready to go when we arrive. If there’s something you’re unsure about, just let us know beforehand so we can plan for it.

What about insurance coverage?

Every move is covered. At the beginning of your move, you’ll choose between Basic Value Protection and Full Value Protection, so you know exactly what level of coverage applies before we get started.

What should I do with TVs, mirrors, artwork, and fragile items?

Tell us about anything fragile or especially important when we confirm your move. We wrap glass, art, and electronics in protective material. Our movers are trained to pack fragile things with care. Your breakables arrive in one piece.

What happens if something gets damaged?

We’ll handle it according to the protection option you selected at the beginning of your move, either Basic or Full Value Protection—and walk you through the next steps.

Is there anything you can’t move?

Yes. Some hazardous, flammable, perishable, or otherwise unsafe items can’t go on the truck. If you’re wondering about something specific, ask us before moving day.
