Driving between stops around Stratford
I-95, Merritt Parkway and Route 8 (nearby) carry most trips in and out of Stratford.
Basements in older homes can hold appliances and stored items that add carrying time.
Two addresses, two sets of access details
Cape-style homes may have steep, narrow stairs to the upstairs bedrooms, which affects how bed frames and dressers come down.
Loading and unloading in Stratford: common situations
Local house or apartment moves
A same-day move across Stratford where one rental truck makes one or two trips is the ideal fit for a single crew.
Moving in or out of storage
Loading at the unit and unloading at home the same afternoon avoids paying twice for two separate bookings.
Two-trip moves in a smaller truck
If you rented smaller than you needed, keeping the crew for the round trip is usually cheaper than rebooking.
Downsizing and shuffle moves
Some furniture goes to the new place, some to a relative or a donation drop. One crew can handle a route with stops if the company agrees to it up front.
