• How long does professional packing take?+
  A studio apartment takes approximately 3–5 hours to fully pack. A 1-bedroom takes 4–6 hours. A 2-bedroom home runs 6–9 hours. A 3-bedroom or larger may require a full day or two-day packing schedule. We provide a specific time estimate based on your home size and inventory.
• Can you pack my home the day before the move?+
  Yes — many clients prefer a two-day approach. Day one is dedicated entirely to packing with no time pressure. Day two is moving day. This is often faster and less stressful than trying to do both in one day.
• Do you provide all packing materials or do I need to buy supplies?+
  We supply all packing materials — boxes, bubble wrap, packing paper, tape, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, and furniture blankets. Materials used are included in your packing quote. If you want to supply your own boxes, let us know and we'll adjust the quote accordingly.
• Is professional packing worth it?+
  In almost every case, yes. Professionally packed items are dramatically less likely to be damaged in transit. It also eliminates one of the most stressful and time-consuming parts of any move — many clients say it's the single best decision they made about their move.
• Can you just pack the fragile items?+
  Absolutely. Fragile-only packing is one of our most popular options. You pack the non-fragile items yourself, and we handle the kitchen, glassware, artwork, mirrors, and electronics that require professional technique and materials.
• Do you pack items inside drawers?+
  For local moves, we often leave lighter dresser drawers filled and wrap the dresser securely. For long-distance moves, we recommend emptying all drawers to prevent damage during transit. We'll advise based on your specific move type.
• What packing materials do you use?+
  We use double-walled boxes in standard and specialty sizes, dish packs for fragile kitchen items, wardrobe boxes for hanging clothes, bubble wrap, packing paper, foam padding, furniture blankets, shrink wrap for upholstered furniture, and mirror/picture boxes for artwork.
• Can you unpack after the move even if you didn't pack?+
  Yes. Our unpacking service is available regardless of who did the original packing. We'll unbox items, place them where you direct, and remove all cardboard, paper, and packing materials from your new home.
• Do you recycle packing materials after the move?+
  Yes. We collect and reuse furniture blankets on every move. Cardboard boxes in good condition are reused or recycled. We remove all packing materials from your new home and handle responsible disposal.
• Can you pack a home office with sensitive equipment?+
  Yes. Computer equipment, monitors, servers, and other electronics are packed using anti-static materials, original packaging when available, and custom crating when needed. We coordinate with your IT requirements to ensure electronics are protected.
• What if I want to pack some rooms but have you pack others?+
  That's our partial packing service — one of our most flexible options. You decide which rooms or item types you want us to handle. Kitchen and fragile items are the most common choices for partial service.
• Do you offer overnight packing for a next-morning move?+
  For urgent situations, we can arrange evening packing with a next-morning move. Availability depends on crew scheduling. Call (212) 484-1095 and we'll do our best to accommodate your timeline.
