Licensed and Insured Moving Company in Midway, UT

What the job involves in Midway

We treat every Midway moving company job as a logistics problem first and a lifting problem second. 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.

• A survey that sets the crew size and the truck, in writing
• Protection installed before the first item moves
• Wrapping and padding done in the property, not in the truck
• A load built to carry, with weight low and square
• Placement and reassembly at the destination

The reason we survey first is that the three things that actually drive the price — volume, access and stairs — are the three things you cannot judge over the phone.

We would rather tell you a date is unrealistic than take the booking and disappoint you. That happens more often than you would think, particularly at month-end.

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 moving company 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.

The other thing worth knowing is that we work both ends of the state. A move from Midway down to Washington County is one crew and one truck for us, not a handover to a partner carrier halfway.

What licensed and insured means for a moving company job in Midway

There are two different things called insurance in this trade. Released-value protection is included by law and pays by weight — around 60 cents a pound, which on a television is close to nothing. Full-value protection is a separate product that pays to repair or replace.

Ask which one a quote includes. Most quotes include the first and are described as though they include the second.

We are licensed and insured, our crews are background-checked, and we will put the cover in writing on the estimate rather than leaving it as a phrase 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.

The last week of any month is the busiest, everywhere. Mid-month midweek is cheaper and calmer if you have the choice.

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.
