Moving into a house, not just emptying a truck

Unloading is a distribution job. A single-family home has more destinations than an apartment — upstairs bedrooms, a basement, a garage, a den — and every box needs one.

Label by room and post signs at doorways. In a multi-level house that habit is the difference between one trip and two on every armful.

Driveway access and the ramp

A driveway unload is usually the easiest version of this job: the truck backs in, the ramp sets, and the loop is short. Slope, overhead branches, and where a container was dropped are the variables worth checking.

Clear the driveway completely before the crew arrives. A car left in place is minutes lost on the first and last trip of the day.

Placement, reassembly, and second floors

Crews set furniture in position, stack boxes by room, and reassemble beds and tables. Upstairs placement and basement drops both take longer than ground-floor rooms, so name them when you request.

Decide in advance where the bed, dresser, sectional, and appliances go. Deciding live is the most reliable way to make an hourly unload run long.

Unloading into storage

Storage unloads follow the facility's rules: gate hours, corridor distance, cart supply, and elevator sharing where the unit is not on the ground floor.

If you expect to need items again soon, ask the crew to keep them near the door and leave an aisle down the middle.

Preparing the destination

Runners on main paths, corner protection at tight turns, doors propped, and utilities and lighting confirmed on. If the destination is a complex, confirm the standing space and any permitted hours ahead of the day.

Keep the entry and first room clear as staging so the vehicle empties while placement continues.

How unloading labor is priced

Hourly at each independent company's own rate, crew size, and minimum hours — all shown before you request. There is no platform-set Edison price.

Your card is authorized on submission and captured only after a company accepts; the Service Processing Fee is included in the estimate.
