Labor-Only Movers
West Jordan

What the job involves in West Jordan

We treat every West Jordan labor-only movers job as a logistics problem first and a lifting problem second. With roughly 116,692 residents, West Jordan is one of the larger communities in Salt Lake County, and that shows up in the job: more flats and shared access, more parking restrictions, more jobs that need a lift booked.

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 West Jordan job

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

• Crew only — you supply the truck or container, we supply the people
• Loading to a plan so the container carries without shifting in transit
• Protection and padding brought with the crew
• Hourly billing with the crew size agreed in advance
• Unloading and placement at the far end if you want it

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 West Jordan

Most of our West Jordan work sits around Jordan Landing, Westland Cove, Copper Hills and Gardner Village, 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 South Jordan, Riverton and Taylorsville in the same week, so a labor-only movers job here rarely needs a separate trip charge — and if your move crosses between them, it is one crew rather than a handover.

West Jordan runs on manufacturing, healthcare and retail, 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 — Salt Lake County included.

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

How to judge a labor-only movers company in West Jordan

Ask for the USDOT or Utah PSC number and check it. Ask whether the crew are employed or day labour. Ask what the protection plan is — released-value cover is not insurance, and most people find that out after something is broken.

Ask what happens if the job runs over. A company that will not answer that on the phone will not answer it on the day either.

We have been doing this since 2012 with a 4.9 average across more than 266 five-star reviews. That record is public and worth checking rather than taking from a website.

Booking, timing and cost in West Jordan

Snow does not usually stop a move here, but it does change the timings. We build that into the estimate rather than discovering it on the morning.

Book earlier than feels necessary for month-end and for anything between May and September; those dates go first.

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

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.
