Licensed and Insured Furniture Movers in Smithfield

What the job involves in Smithfield

Smithfield is a straightforward place to work once you know it, and we have been working it for over a decade. With roughly 14,408 residents, Smithfield is a mid-sized community in Cache County, and that shows up in the job: mostly detached houses with driveway access, and a mix of newer estates and older streets.

Every quote is written down before the job is booked, so nobody is negotiating on a driveway with a loaded truck.

What a Smithfield job looks like

Every job follows the same order, because that is what keeps the estimate honest and the day calm.

• 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 Smithfield

Most of our Smithfield work sits around Smithfield centre and Birch Creek, 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 North Logan, Logan and Providence 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.

Smithfield runs on agriculture, manufacturing and retail, and that shapes who is moving and when: term dates, transfer seasons and the end of a build all bunch the calendar.

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

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

What licensed and insured means for a furniture movers job in Smithfield

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 a Smithfield job

Winter is the real variable at this end of the state. Ice on a driveway, salt walked through a hallway and a four-o'clock sunset all change how a day runs, and a crew that has not planned for it will lose hours.

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

Have these to hand when you call and the estimate will be a number rather than a range:

• 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

Ring (435) 862-3080 and describe the job. You will get a written estimate, and an honest answer if the date you want is not realistic.
