Residential Moves

One flight of stairs at either end can add about an hour to a move, and a long carry from the front door to the truck adds more. A Moving Company LLC plans residential moves around details like those. This page covers how we move houses, apartments, and condos across Boise, ID: household packing help, loading our 26-foot truck with a lift, steady transport, and furniture reassembly at the new address. We operate under DOT #3091884 and Idaho State License #D197589.

EVERY HOUSEHOLD LEAVES A LITTLE DIFFERENTLY.

Picture the morning of the move: a crib still standing in the nursery, a dresser that will not clear the hallway turn, and a dog who knows something is up. Our job is to turn that scene into a plan. We map the rooms, decide what rides first, and keep one point of contact at each end so nothing gets handled twice.


Being family owned and operated, we know what moving a household asks of a family. We are big enough to move an entire house and small enough to care where your grandmother's rocking chair ends up.

RESIDENTIAL MOVES

YOUR FRONT DOOR IS WHERE OUR PLAN STARTS.

Each truck move arrives with a 26-foot truck, a lift, and two movers who know how a household fits inside it. Blankets, dollies, moving straps, plastic wrap, and tie-downs ride along on every truck job. We load appliances and dressers first against the front wall by the cab, build tiers from floor to ceiling, strap each tier off, and fill the gaps so a sudden stop at a red light does not rearrange your kitchen table.

BOISE SUMMERS AND WINTERS BOTH SHAPE MOVING DAY.

Boise, ID, averages a July high of 92°F, and the hot season runs from June 15 to September 11, so summer moves start early before the afternoon heat settles over the driveway. Winter brings the opposite problem. Most of the city's roughly 17.6 inches of snow falls in December and January, so we walk the path to the truck before lifting anything and take icy steps slowly, one piece at a time.

20 YEARS OF CARRYING HOUSEHOLDS OUT THE FRONT DOOR.

Over 20 years, we have learned that most moving-day trouble starts before anyone lifts a box. A dresser still stuffed with clothes, a washer nobody disconnected, a TV without a carton: each one slows us down and puts something at risk. So our office walks you through the plan from booking to arrival, and we show up ready for the house you actually have. Would a walk-through of your own move help you sleep better?

WHAT WE MOVE

OUR RESIDENTIAL MOVES WORK.

Homes come in every shape, from a starter condo with one tight stairwell to a four-bedroom house with a garage full of tools. These six services cover the residential work we handle, and most moves combine several of them.

HOUSE MOVES

Single-Family Home Moves


Bedrooms, kitchen, garage, and backyard all move in one planned sequence. We start with the biggest furniture and appliances, work room by room, and keep the path from each doorway to the truck open all day.

APARTMENT LIVING

Apartment and Condo Moves


Shared hallways, stairwells, and parking lots call for good timing and a tidy path. We keep your neighbors' doors unblocked, roll pieces on dollies where the floor allows, and plan around the distance from your unit to the truck.

CUSTOM PLANS

Tailored Moving Plans


Households rarely need the same mix of help. Some want packing and the whole move, while others need only the truck and two sets of hands. We build the plan around your list, your schedule, and your budget.

CAREFUL PACKING

Household Packing Help


Dishes, books, lamps, and closets get packed in sturdy boxes and labeled by room, so each box reaches the right doorway at the other end. We can pack the whole house or only the rooms you have not reached.

TRUCK WORK

Loading and Truck Transport


The lift handles the bulkiest pieces, so nothing gets muscled up a ramp. Loads go in tiers from floor to ceiling, each one strapped off, with gaps filled so furniture rides steady across town or across Idaho.

ROOM SETUP

Furniture Reassembly and Placement


Bed frames, tables, and desks we took apart go back together at the new home. Tell us where the couch and dressers belong, and we set each piece in place before we leave, not in a pile by the door.

Common Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

Planning a household move raises questions long before the truck arrives. These answers cover booking timelines, prep work, stairs, and the items we cannot load, so your residential move starts with fewer surprises.

  • How far in advance should I book movers for a residential move?

    As soon as your closing or move-out date is firm, request a free estimate from A Moving Company LLC. Booking early opens up more dates in Boise, ID, and gives our office time to plan for stairs and heavy items.

  • What should I do before the movers arrive?

    Disconnect the washer, dryer, and electronics, box any TVs or monitors, and empty your dresser drawers. Save a parking spot near the door, choose one point of contact at each end, and keep kids and pets out of the path.

  • Do movers disconnect washers and dryers?

    No, we do not disconnect or reconnect washers, dryers, or electronics. Have them unhooked before we arrive, and line up a qualified technician for the hookup at your new home. Once they are disconnected, we wrap, load, and carry them.

  • What items will movers not put on the truck?

    Any TV or computer monitor that is not boxed stays off our truck. We also do not disconnect washers, dryers, or electronics, so those need to be unhooked. Items of 250 pounds or more are welcome with notice at booking.

  • How long does it take to move a three-bedroom house?

    Timing depends on how much furniture you have, how much is packed, stairs at either end, and the carry distance from door to truck. Your free estimate walks through those details, so the day is planned around your real home.

  • How do stairs affect moving day?

    Stairs at either end can add about an hour, because every large piece is carried step by step instead of rolled on a dolly. Mention staircases, landings, and tight turns when booking, so we arrive equipped and plan the time.

  • Should I empty my dresser drawers before moving?

    Yes, in most cases. A full dresser is heavier and harder to carry safely, and drawers can slide open on the stairs. Pack clothing into boxes or bags, and we will wrap the empty dresser and strap it in place.

  • Why hire professional movers instead of moving yourself?

    Hiring A Moving Company LLC gets you two trained movers, a 26-foot truck with a lift, and blankets and tie-downs at no extra charge. Across Boise, ID, that means no rental counter, no borrowed dollies, and no sore back afterward.

HOW WE WORK

FROM FIRST CALL TO LAST BED FRAME, HERE IS HOW.

STEP 01

Request Your Free Estimate

Send us the size of your home, both addresses, and your preferred date through our contact page. We ask about stairs, carry distance, and anything of 250 pounds or more, so the estimate matches the real job waiting for us.

STEP 02

Confirm the Plan With Our Office

Our office books the date, confirms whether you need packing, loading, or the complete move, and explains what happens on the day. You know who is coming, what equipment arrives with us, and what we need from you beforehand.

STEP 03

Get the House Ready

Unplug electronics, have the washer and dryer disconnected, and put TVs and monitors in boxes. Pick one person to direct us at each address, and arrange for kids and pets to spend the day somewhere safe and away from the doorways.

STEP 04

Wrap and Load the Truck

We pad furniture with blankets, stretch plastic wrap over upholstery, and set the heaviest pieces against the front wall by the cab. Tiers go floor to ceiling, each one strapped tight, with gaps filled so nothing shifts on the road.

STEP 05

Drive and Carry In

Once the doors close, the truck heads straight to your new address, and mileage is counted only while it is moving. We carry each box to the room written on its label and roll furniture in on dollies, keeping hallways and doorways open.

STEP 06

Reassemble and Place

Anything we took apart gets rebuilt, and every piece lands where you point. Before we leave, we walk the rooms with you so nothing is sitting in the wrong spot or waiting to be carried a second time.
