Full service moving means exactly what it says. You do nothing except tell us where you want everything. Our crew arrives the day before your move date and packs your entire home — every dish wrapped individually, every piece of artwork in a mirror carton, every hanging garment in a wardrobe box, every fragile item cushioned and labeled. Move day, we load the truck with all furniture wrapped in moving blankets and stretch wrap, transport to your new address, unload with room-by-room placement exactly as you direct, reassemble all furniture, and remove all boxes and packing materials from your new home before we leave. You walk in and it is done.
Full service moving in Abilene is not a luxury reserved for large estates. It is the practical choice for anyone whose time, physical capacity, or organizational bandwidth does not allow them to manage their own packing and unpacking while also managing the dozens of other tasks that accompany a move — utility transfers, address changes, school enrollment, service cancellations, and every other item on the relocation checklist. The cost of full service moving in Abilene in 2026 is the cost of eliminating weeks of your own labor from a process that is already demanding.
Packing Day (day before move): Our packing crew arrives with all materials — boxes in five sizes, dish packs with cell dividers, wardrobe boxes with hanging bars, mirror cartons for framed art and mirrors, TV cartons for flat screens, bubble wrap, packing paper, specialty crating for high-value items on request, and tape. We pack every room systematically, label every box with origin room and contents, and stage everything for efficient loading the next morning. A 3-bedroom Abilene home takes a 2-person packing crew 6-8 hours.
Move Day: Our moving crew arrives, conducts a walkthrough of both locations with you, lays floor protection at both addresses, wraps all furniture in moving blankets and stretch wrap, disassembles large furniture, loads the correctly sized truck, transports to your new address, unloads with room-by-room placement following your direction, and reassembles all furniture we disassembled.
Unpacking and Setup: If unpacking service is added (our most comprehensive option), our crew unpacks all boxes at the destination — kitchen items into cabinets, clothing into closets, books onto shelves — and removes all boxes and packing materials from your new home.

Packing with all materials, furniture wrapping, disassembly, loading, transport, unloading, placement, furniture reassembly, and optional unpacking. Everything from first box to last furniture placed.
Yes. All boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, mirror cartons, TV cartons, bubble wrap, packing paper, and tape are included in the full service price.
For most people who value their time, yes. Full service eliminates 2-4 weeks of personal packing labor, prevents the most common cause of moving damage (improper packing), and delivers a new home that is set up and functional the day you move in.
Yes. Pack-and-move (without unpacking) is the most common full service option. Add unpacking if you want us to set up your new home completely.
A 2-bedroom full service move (pack and move) runs $1,100-$2,000. A 3-bedroom runs $1,600-$3,000. Adding unpacking service increases total by 30-40 percent.
3-4 weeks for summer moves. 2 weeks for fall and winter. Full service moves require two-day crew deployment (packing day plus move day) and schedule booking is more competitive.
