How do I reserve a date?

The easiest way to make a reservation is to send us an email confirming acceptance of your quote and telling us the date and time that you want to move. You can also call us to confirm your appointment. After you make your reservation, we will send you a confirmation email.

What if I need to cancel my move?

We do understand that sometimes plans change, and if you only require a different date and time for your move, we will try our very best to accommodate these changes, and there will be no charges. If you really have to cancel and you manage to let us know at least 3 days prior, we will not charge you either. However, we will unfortunately have to apply a small cancellation fee in the case of a cancellation at short notice. We would really appreciate your understanding.
