Extra Pickups and Stops Questions

from Shane C. in AZ - May 12, 2008
I got a quote for a move from AZ to NH. If I need a second stop in Az for about 25 miles from my home to load 1 large tool box will there be an additional charge

Shane,

As long as the pickup is within 25 miles, we charge $95 for the additional stop. If it is more than 25 and less than 50, we charge $175. This used to not cost so much, but fuel cost for moving vans is running almost a dollar a mile now...

I have a load of household goods in Gaithersburg MD and a 10x10 storage unit in Cordova, TN which I need moved to my new address in Las Vegas. What are the logistics for co-ordinating this move?

Elizabeth,

You would need to do this in two shipments. Routing the moving truck from MD to TN and then to Las Vegas would be cost-prohibitive because it is inefficient use of the moving van (especially with the crazy fuel prices that we are currently experiencing).

from Candace C. in NH - March 31, 2008
We are planning a move soon and would need to load things not just from the house but also from a near storage building. Would this be a problem? We used movex to move up here to NH and it went so smoothly. The driver was a great guy, and it was very affordable so we are looking forward to using movex with this move also. Thanks!

Candace,

Thanks for the kind words. We are looking forward to serving you again. As for the extra pickup, with Movex that is no problem. Since the drivers stay with the moving trucks during the loading process, it is our pleasure to move the truck to a second location for loading. There is a $95 fee for the second pickup. Movex is the only self-service mover that can make extra pickups!

I have belongings in two locations. Is there any way to make two stops?

Jason,

Movex is the only self-service mover that can make two stops! Since the driver stays with the moving truck while it is loaded, we can easily move to a second location for you to finish your move.

from kim D. in SD - February 26, 2008
I see that you can pick up from two different residents in the same town, but can we unload at two different residents at our new location in the same town? thank you

Kim,

Absolutely! Movex is the only self-service mover that can accommodate multiple pickups AND drop-offs.

from Jessie D. in MI - February 4, 2008
Am I able to load from both my current APT and a storage facility?

Jessie,

Because we offer moving truck service and the driver is there while you load and unload, Movex is able to relocate the truck to your storage facility so that you can load from both locations easily. We are the only self-service mover in the country to provide this option.

from Corrie S. in FL - September 3, 2007
I have 3 storage units that need to be moved to Jacksonville, Florida.

One unit is in Puyallup, Washington, and the other 2 are in Chico, California.

What is the best way to get an estimate for that type of move?
Thank you

Corrie,

You can either treat this as one move or two. If you are going to take the entire moving truck, you can treat it as one move with two extra pickups. If the loads are small, treat the Chico and Puyallup pickups as separate moves and get different moving trucks for each pickup.

The cost will depend on how much you are loading at each location. It would be in your best interest to call in and speak to one of our relocation specialists and explain the details of this move. They can help you arrange for a moving truck (or moving trucks) and work out the most competitive pricing for you.

I also want to point out that Movex is the only self-service moving company that can even offer you these options. No other company can make additional pickups in the same town, less yet in different states! We are looking forward to helping you with your move.

from Linda A. in FL - September 2, 2007
I am interested in shipping, from Wesley Chapel, FL to San Bruno, CA, a few belongings (approx. 50 or more small boxes, a 32" TV and TV stand) as well as, load from a nearby family's home (15 minutes from my home address) a sofa and ottoman along with 5 more small boxes of personal possessions. Would the additional pick up location incur an additional charge and, if so, how expensive?

Linda,

With Movex service, the driver stays with the moving truck during loading. This allows us to make an additional pickup (as long as it is in the same town). None of our competitors can offer that kind of service. The charge for an additional pickup is generally $95. You will need to speak to one of our relocation specialists to make sure that there are no surprises that we need to know about that might effect that rate.

from Shanon A. in MD - July 26, 2007
I recently got married and am moving to Louisiana from Maryland. My things are at my parents house and hers are in storage. I know I have to load but can the movers come to more than one location?

Shanon,

Part of the beauty of the Movex system is that the driver will wait while you load at one location and then can move the truck to a second location. The second pickup has to be in the same town (or very close). We can also service more than one delivery location. None of our competitors can provide that kind of service.

from Kevin G. in CA - June 8, 2007
I am going to be moving from San Francisco to Evanston, Illinois in August. I know several other people who are planning identical moves from SF to Evanston at the same time. We all have different pickup and drop-off addresses in each city, but is there a way to reduce the cost to each of us by scheduling our moves together, for the same pickup/drop-off dates? Thank you.

Kevin,

Consolidating your move with others is a good way to save some money. A full moving truck with some minor extra pickup and delivery charges will be much more cost effective than several smaller shipments scheduled at different times. This sounds like a fairly complex move. I would call our relocation specialists at 800-876-6839 to work out the details and get the best possible price.
