About 10% of our weekly jobs are booked within 48 hours. Sometimes it's a job offer that wants you on-site Monday in Denver. Sometimes it's a landlord who flipped the move-out date. Sometimes a closing fell through and now there is one and you have a week. We handle it the same way as scheduled jobs β same crew quality, same equipment, no rush fee on the hourly.
Same-day availability depends on what's already on the board. If you call before 11 AM and we have a crew finishing a job by noon, we can usually start your move that afternoon for studios, 1-bedrooms, and small jobs. For 2-bedroom and up, we typically need at least 24 hours notice to route a proper-sized crew. For 3-4 bedroom houses, 48 hours is usually the minimum.
Next-day is almost always possible. Call us anytime by 4 PM, and we can usually schedule a next-day morning or afternoon slot. Long-distance is harder β we need at least 4-5 days lead time to route a truck, get a Certificate of Insurance issued, and confirm delivery windows. Same-day long-distance is generally not realistic from us or anyone reputable.
What we need from you to book last-minute
- Origin and destination addresses (or at least cross streets)
- Bedroom count (or rough item list if it's a partial move)
- Stairs, elevator, parking access at both ends
- Any specialty items (piano, gun safe, exercise equipment, glass tops over 60")
- Credit card or ACH for billing β we don't hold deposits over $100, but we need a card on file before crew rolls
Why we don't charge a rush fee
Most movers charge 25-50% extra for same-day or next-day. We don't. The crew is doing the same work in the same hours; the only difference is dispatch had to scramble a little. Marcus made the call early β if we ever start charging rush fees, we lose the customers who actually need us most. Same hourly, every day.
