Frequently Asked Questions

No. We do not require a deposit to reserve your move date. You only pay once your move is completed. This keeps the process flexible and puts the risk on us — not you.

Never. All moves are completed by full-time Geo. W. Weaver & Son movers. We do not use brokers, van lines, or third-party crews.

Local moves are billed hourly, so you only pay for the time used. Interstate moves are quoted clearly upfront, with guaranteed pricing structures depending on the service selected.

Every move includes:

• Furniture padding

• Doorway and floor protection

• Disassembly and reassembly as needed

• Proper loading techniques to prevent shifting or damage

We offer multiple valuation options so you can choose the level of protection that fits your move. Our team explains these clearly before move day — no fine print.

Yes. Unlike van lines, your move stays with the same Weaver crew from pickup to delivery whenever possible. That means better accountability, better care, and fewer issues.

Tipping is not mandatory, but it's a common practice to show appreciation for exceptional service. If you're satisfied with the movers' work, you can consider tipping them individually or providing a lump sum to be split among the moving company crew.

Moving companies have restrictions on transporting hazardous materials such as gasoline, propane tanks, fireworks, and corrosive chemicals. Additionally, perishable items, plants, and pets are typically not allowed in moving trucks. Make sure to consult with the moving company about any specific restrictions or guidelines that may be in place.

While it's possible to pack and move fragile or valuable items yourself, it's generally recommended to let the professionals at a moving company handle them. Movers have experience and expertise in packing delicate items securely and can provide appropriate packing materials and techniques to ensure their safe transportation.

No. In over a century of business, we have never canceled or failed to show up for a scheduled move.
