Family Owned Furniture Movers
Midway, Utah

What the job involves in Midway

Most Midway furniture movers jobs are won or lost before the truck arrives, in the survey and the plan. With roughly 6,171 residents, Midway is a smaller community in Wasatch County, and that shows up in the job: largely detached properties, long driveways and very little kerbside constraint.

The estimate is written, the crew size is set from the survey, and the price does not move on the day unless the job does.

How we run a Midway job

There is no mystery to it. The sequence is the same every time, which is what makes it predictable.

• Measured routes for anything that will be tight on a turn or a stair
• Disassembly where a piece will not go through whole
• Blanket wrap and stretch film on every face that will touch anything
• Placement in the room, not the hallway
• Reassembly, including the fixings we removed

The part people underestimate is the survey. An estimate given over the phone from a room count is a guess, and a guess is what turns into an argument on the day when the truck is full and the hallway is not empty.

Nothing here is subcontracted. The crew that quotes the job is employed by the company that turns up to do it, which is not true of every quote you will be comparing.

Moving around Midway

Most of our Midway work sits around Soldier Hollow, Midway Main Street and Interlaken, and each of those areas asks something slightly different of a crew — access, parking, the age of the housing, whether there is a lift involved.

We are usually in Heber City, Park City and Kamas in the same week, so a furniture movers job here rarely needs a separate trip charge — and if your move crosses between them, it is one crew rather than a handover.

Midway runs on tourism and resorts, hospitality and construction, and that shapes who is moving and when: the busy weeks follow the local employers, not the national moving season.

Everything here is covered from our own crews rather than subcontracted to whoever is free that day — Wasatch County included.

Because we started in St. George in 2012 and came north afterwards, a Midway to Southern Utah move runs on one crew rather than two companies and a transfer.

Who actually turns up to a furniture movers job in Midway

This is Justin and Miranda Ruuth's business, started in 2012 and still run by them. The crews are employed and background-checked, not day labour hired for the date.

That matters for the question nobody asks out loud, which is who is going to be walking through my house. You get the same company on the phone, on the estimate and on the day.

If something goes wrong, the person you complain to is the person who owns the company. That is worth more than a guarantee written on a website.

Booking, timing and cost in Midway

From November to March the loading end is the problem, not the driving. We plan winter jobs around daylight and grit the access before the crew arrives rather than after someone slips.

Month-end and the summer weeks fill first. If your date is flexible by a fortnight, say so — it is often worth money.

Five things make the difference between a quote and a guess:

• A rough inventory, even a phone video walked room to room — it is the single thing that makes an estimate accurate
• Your dates, including the one that cannot move and the one that can
• Anything unusually heavy or awkward: a safe, a piano, a tub, a treadmill, a fish tank
• Access notes at both ends — stairs, lifts, gates, parking, gate codes
• What is NOT coming with you, which is often the cheapest decision in the whole move

Call (435) 862-3080. We will ask what is moving, where from and where to, and give you a written number rather than a range.
