The time frame in which a move takes place depends on the preparedness of the move, on access points for the move, and on the number of people assigned to your move. When we evaluate estimates, we aim for a load on studio to one bedrooms to take less than 2.5 hours, and for the load of larger sized apartments or homes to take no longer than 3.5-4.5 hours. Unloading is usually half the time of the load, except in situations where elevators break down, or there are extreme walk-and-carries at your destination.
