═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

SERVICES — WHAT WE LOAD, UNLOAD, AND MOVE

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

📦 PODS LOADING & UNLOADING

We load PODS containers in driveways, apartment parking lots, 

and storage facility lots across Hampton Roads. We know how 

to weight-distribute a PODS unit for cross-country transit 

and how to unload one without scraping the floor.

🚚 U-HAUL LOAD/UNLOAD

Most-requested service we run. U-Haul trucks of every size — 

10ft, 15ft, 17ft, 20ft, 26ft. We load tight, strap properly, 

and protect what matters.

🚚 PENSKE TRUCK LOADING

Same standard as U-Haul but Penske units are taller — we 

account for the deck height when planning the load.

🚚 BUDGET TRUCK LOADING

Budget rentals load the same way. We have done hundreds.

📦 U-PACK RELOCUBE LOADING

ReloCubes are smaller than PODS. We pack them to maximize 

cubic feet without overloading.

📦 1-800-PACK-RAT CONTAINER LOADING

Same protocol as PODS. We know the container dimensions.

📦 STORAGE UNIT LOADING & UNLOADING

We load into storage units across Hampton Roads — Public 

Storage, CubeSmart, Extra Space, Life Storage, Simply Self 

Storage, and local operators.

🏠 HOUSEHOLD GOODS MOVING (LOCAL)

Apartment to apartment, house to house, Norfolk to anywhere 

in the 757.

🪖 MILITARY DITY / PPM MOVES

Weight ticket support. Base access. Inspection-ready packing. 

PCS-season experience across every Hampton Roads installation.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

NORFOLK MOVEMENT REALISM — WHY LOCAL EXPERIENCE MATTERS

Loading a truck in Ghent is not loading a truck in Suffolk. 

We have done both. Hundreds of times.

CONTINGENCY — WHAT WE HANDLE WHEN MOVE DAY GETS COMPLICATED

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

⚠️ Truck Won't Fit at Loading Dock

   We staged a shuttle plan from the closest legal staging 

   point. Done it in Downtown, Ghent, and ODU.

⚠️ Freight Elevator Reservation Missed

   We work the stairs. Slower but it gets done.

⚠️ Parking Permit Denied

   We coordinate flash-loading at curbside in the legal window 

   and shuttle from a nearby legal lot.

⚠️ Weather (Coastal Storm / Heat / Humidity)

   Hampton Roads weather varies. We staged moves through 

   summer humidity and winter wind. Heavy rain triggers 

   floor protection upgrades.

⚠️ Building Access Restrictions

   COI filings, gate codes, base access — handled.

⚠️ Hoarding-Level Load

   Heavier crew, longer day, no judgment. We've worked 

   estate cleanouts.

⚠️ Damage in Transit

   Our crews load to prevent it. If something does happen, 

   our MVMP Guarantee covers repair or replacement.

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

MVMP GUARANTEE

We stand behind our work. If anything is damaged during your 

move, we will repair it or replace it — guaranteed.

We also pride ourselves on professionalism, punctuality, and 

respect. Your satisfaction is our top priority 💯.

FAQ — FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ HOW MUCH DOES MOVING HELP COST IN NORFOLK?

➡️ **Labor-only moving help in Norfolk runs $75 per mover, 

per hour with a 2-hour minimum.** A typical 2-mover, 3-hour 

PODS or U-Haul job runs $450. Larger loads with 3 or 4 movers 

scale from there. If you also need a truck, our 2-mover + 

truck tier is $200/hour with a 3-hour minimum ($600 total).

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ CAN YOU LOAD MY PODS TODAY?

➡️ **Often yes.** We hold capacity for same-day PODS loading 

and unloading. Call 757-330-0008 to check current availability. 

Same-day depends on crew availability that day — first 

in line gets the slot.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ DO YOU UNLOAD U-HAUL TRUCKS?

➡️ **Yes. U-Haul unloading is one of our most-requested 

services.** Typical unload runs 2-3 hours with 2 movers for a 

15-20ft truck, longer for 26ft. We arrive when the U-Haul 

arrives, unload to the room destinations you specify, and 

reassemble bed frames if needed.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ WHAT IS YOUR MINIMUM NUMBER OF HOURS?

➡️ **Labor-only is 2 hours per mover minimum.** Labor + truck 

tiers are 3 hours minimum on all tiers ($600 minimum for 

2 movers + truck, $750 for 3 movers + truck, $900 for 4 

movers + truck). Most jobs finish at or near the minimum.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ DO YOU BRING TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT?

➡️ **Yes. We bring everything needed for the job.** Furniture 

dollies, appliance dollies, moving pads, straps, shrink wrap, 

floor runners, and basic disassembly tools. You do not need 

to supply equipment.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ CAN YOU DO SAME-DAY LOADING IN NORFOLK?

➡️ **Often yes.** We reserve capacity for last-minute jobs. 

Call 757-330-0008 immediately to lock in same-day availability. 

Earlier calls have better odds, especially during PCS season 

May through August.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ DO YOU HANDLE STAIRS, WALK-UPS, AND TIGHT TURNS IN GHENT?

➡️ **Yes. Stairs and walk-ups are standard, not extra.** 

Norfolk historic walk-ups in Ghent are routine for our 

crews. Pad protection, disassembly, dolly work, and tight 

stair navigation are part of the standard process — no 

upcharge.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ CAN YOU LOAD A MILITARY DITY / PPM MOVE?

➡️ **Yes. Military DITY/PPM moves are core to what we do.** 

We support weight ticket documentation, work base access 

protocols across NOB, Naval Station Norfolk, Little Creek, 

Oceana, Langley, and Fort Eustis, and pack to inspection-ready 

standards. PCS season May through August books fast — earlier 

is better.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ HOW DO I BOOK MOVING HELP IN NORFOLK?

➡️ **Direct booking only — call 757-330-0008.** We do not 

book through MovingHelp.com, HireAHelper, or third-party 

platforms. Direct booking means direct communication, no 

middleman fees, and a confirmed crew with your veteran-owned 

operator.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ WHAT IS YOUR DEPOSIT POLICY?

➡️ **A one-hour deposit at the booked tier reserves your 

spot.** $150 for labor-only (2 movers × 1 hour), $200 for 

2 movers + truck, $250 for 3 movers + truck, $300 for 4 

movers + truck. Fully refundable with 48 or more hours notice. 

Applied directly to the total on moving day.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ DO YOU LOAD INTO STORAGE UNITS?

➡️ **Yes. Storage loading is a routine service.** We load 

into Public Storage, CubeSmart, Extra Space, Life Storage, 

Simply Self Storage, and independent operators across Hampton 

Roads. We pack the unit to maximize cubic feet so you do not 

pay for empty space.

───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

🗣️ WHAT AREAS DO YOU SERVE?

➡️ **All of Hampton Roads.** Norfolk, Virginia Beach, 

Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Hampton, Newport News, and 

Yorktown. We also do long-distance moves originating from or 

arriving in the Hampton Roads region.
