Cost of Moving Services in Des Moines

The moving estimate for your movers in Des Moines varies according to the following factors:

  1. Distance: A cross-country move or interstate move to or from Des Moines will cost more than a local move, due to the added time, fuel, and labor involved.
  2. Load: The bigger your moving checklist, the higher the fee will be, due to added labor, time, and resources needed.
  3. Service: You can save money by using your own packing materials and opting for a self or partial move, or pay more for a full-service move, in which our moving crew does everything.

Now, based on the above factors, here are some examples of potential total costs:

  1. Local moving: The charging price can start as low as $500, and it rarely goes over $1,200.
  2. Long-distance moves: Depending on the specifics, the cost could be from $2,000 to $4,500.
  3. Residential moves: The entire project could cost you from $800 to $6,000.
  4. Commercial moves (like office moving): These usually start at $1,500, with the maximum price rarely going over $10,000.

Please note that we include packing materials, wall and floor protection while moving furniture, and all transport costs in the price. In other words, there aren’t hidden costs, and the entire payment process is transparent.

Why Us

A Plus Moving provides top-notch moving services and guarantees your complete satisfaction with your move.

 

We perform even the most delicate and logistically impossible jobs: piano moving, fish tank moving, IT and office moving, and custom moving services.

 

But more than ourselves, the feedback of our satisfied customers speaks for us.

Marina Korchmar

The team that came for packing belongings was courteous & disciplined and all was loaded with utmost care. Our belongings arrived a couple of days earlier than the commited time which was good for us.

Disassembling furniture, packing it for complete safety, transporting it carefully using securing ropes, and quickly reassembling it on the spot is an integral part of a safe move with A Plus Moving.

 

We provide both your complete move to a new location and the delivery of individual items and furniture of all types and sizes.

 

We have the necessary equipment in our arsenal to move any piece of furniture, no matter how bulky or awkward, to make your move go as smoothly as possible.

When it comes to your personal belongings, you need to be sure that your possessions are fully and reliably protected in case of any damage. That’s why all of our moving services come with full insurance coverage.

If you’re planning a weekend or holiday move, we’re happy to help you. The A Plus Moving Group team is punctual and fast packing and moving services; you won’t have to worry about delays.

 

We also work with emergency teams and can send movers with a van for same-day service.

Our state-of-the-art fleet has trucks of all sizes for your fast and comfortable move. To be ideally prepared for your move, you can also customize the service by choosing the size of the van and the number of movers needed.

 

Also, all of our vans are equipped with GPS tracking devices to ensure a smooth, stress-free move.

Hard work, teamwork, personal discipline, respect, and constant self-improvement are all part of the A Plus Moving team.

 

We only hire proven and experienced professionals who have proven themselves to be honest, courteous, and hardworking movers.

We don’t seek to make money off our customers, so we offer great discounts and have no hidden fees, which our competitors so often sin with.

 

The set initial price is the final price, with no additional fees for the number of things moved or the distance of the move.

Area We Work in Iowa

FAQ

Are there additional charges for floors or a lack of a lift?

Yes, in some cases, additional charges may apply if the building does not have a lift or requires a lift to a high floor. This is due to the increased time and physical strain on the movers.

The exact cost depends on the number of floors and the volume of items being transported. And we always discuss these points in advance to put everything into the estimate.

How do you handle parking and elevator challenges in Des Moines?

We use every opportunity: we book parking at households, if there is a second exit, we use it.
If there is no lift, we plan for extra time and labour to load or deliver all your belongings to your new home.

Can I order just the move in Des Moines without packing?

Yes, you can pack on your own, and only book with us for carriage.

What options do you offer to protect my Des Moines long-distance move?

To protect your belongings, we choose proper packing and secure fasteners in the truck. For example, mover blankets, velcro wrap, corner protectors and floor protectors (anti-scratch), felt pads, and more.
We also offer comprehensive insurance to protect your belongings during the move. We also screen our movers before hiring them as a team.

Do you have moving insurance in Des Moines?

Yes, we take out the mandatory basic insurance for every move.

If you wish, you can take out extended insurance.

How far in advance should I schedule my move?
