Our goal is to make your local move as seamless and stress-free as possible, every single time.
Moving from one end of town to the other? Although moving locally might not seem like a big deal because you’re only going a short distance, it still requires massive coordination and organization. From packing boxes to properly protecting furniture, you can take it all off of your shoulders. When you’re moving your home or business, no matter how far, you can trust the professionals at Joyce Van Lines
to deliver impeccable service.
Our teams work to help make your move seamless and provide whatever level of assistance best fits your needs. If you’re looking for complete packing and moving services, we can pack up every box and get your things where they need to go. If you simply need some help with the heavy lifting and transportation, our professional team can handle that too. You can rest easy knowing that all furniture will be prepared for the move with the utmost care using quilted moving pads and paper/stretch wrapping on all upholstered furniture.
There are two different ways that we’re able to price our local moves. When you contact Joyce Van Lines, a moving consultant will help to determine the size of the truck needed, the best logistics and equipment, and the most economical pricing option for your move. Our pricing models are:
Time-Based. In this model, the cost to do a local move is based on the time that it takes for the movers to load and deliver your belongings. The hourly rate is based on the number of movers and trucks we assign to your move. Determining the right size crew is important. Too many movers is wasteful, and too few movers is inefficient. Our goal is to work during normal business hours, and to avoid working the movers to the point of fatigue.
Once we have established the right size crew for your move, the time starts when we begin loading, and ends when we are finished delivering. If yours is a multi-day move, we add the time over the days we work. A predetermined travel allowance is added to cover the time it takes our crew to arrive at your origin address and to return at the end of the day.
The cost for us to pack a few cartons on a time-based move is based on the time we take to pack, plus the cost of the materials. For full packing, we charge not by time, but on a per-box schedule, and the packing is normally done the day before your move.
Weight-Based. The cost of your move will be based on the actual weight of your furniture and boxes and the distance to your new home. When the move is over 100 miles, weight-based moving is the standard. The actual weight is determined by weighing the truck before and after your things have been loaded onto it. The difference between these two weights will be your shipping weight.
Once you book your move with Joyce Van Lines, you will be provided with an internal customer support point person who will be available to assist you throughout your move. Communication and attention to all details enables us to provide you with the service you should expect and deserve. Your move coordinator will call you the day prior to your move to confirm crew arrival time and answer any questions that you may have. All details will be reviewed with you at this time and any concerns addressed.
