FAQ

Your moving questions answered

Do I need to rent a moving truck?

Yes! We provide the muscle to handle all the heavy lifting for your move. You’ll need to rent a moving truck or container separately.

What supplies do the movers bring?

The movers bring all the essential lifting equipment for your move, including shoulder straps and a 2-wheel dolly. We highly recommend renting moving blankets with your rental truck so the movers can safely wrap your items.

How should I prepare for move day?

Take the time to:

  • Box up all loose items.
  • Disassemble large furniture to ensure it fits through doorways.
  • Wrap fragile items carefully to prevent damage.

Are you fully insured?

Yes! Moving Muscle is fully insured. All our movers are background-checked, vetted, and thoroughly trained. With over 4,250 jobs completed, you can count on us for professional service.

What if I don't know how long to book?

No worries! Our dedicated support team is here to help. Call us at 980-920-3022 or email support@getmovingmuscle.com, and we’ll guide you through the process.

What if I need to reschedule or cancel?

We understand that plans change! If you need to make any changes, call our dedicated support team at least 24 hours before your scheduled move. For changes made within 24 hours, there may be a small $50 fee to compensate for the movers’ blocked time.

What areas do you service?

We currently service the following areas:

  • Charlotte, NC
  • Raleigh, NC

Do the movers assemble/disassemble furniture?

Our movers are happy to assist with basic assembly and disassembly. However, they do not provide tools. To save time and money, we recommend handling (dis)assembly before the movers arrive.
