LOCAL MOVE: 

If you are moving locally, there are some things you can do to make your move go smoother.

Take the small amount of time it takes to sit down and contact all of the utilities. Let them know when to stop service and where/when to start service. This is something most people really don't like doing, but it only take a short amount of time and can really give you peace of mind. The last thing you want is to be paying for your electricity in two places!

Don't forget to call the newspaper. Again, there will be a great sense of satisfaction when you are neck-deep in cardboard at your new place and know that your morning paper is there!

Make sure you are ready for the movers. Don't waste their time and your money by having them stand around while you "finish packing." If you think that you are not going to be able to make it on time, call and reschedule the move. It could save you a substantial amount of money.

RELOCATION TO ANOTHER CITY:

Most of the above applies to any move, but leaving town causes additional problems.

Make sure any pianos, grandfather clocks or other treasured items are readied for long distance transportation. This will ensure a safe delivery.

Don't pack cleaning supplies (toxic items), guns or ammunition. We are not allowed to transport these items. You will have to take them yourself or make other arrangements.

Go over the inventory lists carefully to make sure everyone is in agreement as to the number of items.

CALL US WITH ANY QUESTIONS!

OUR TERMS:

We work on an hourly. This will be determined, and agreed to, prior to starting.

Job must be paid in full at completion. Failure to pay will result in removal of moved items and stored at your expense.

We will not be held to a contract - whether verbal or written - if the premises to be moved is found to be a health risk. This would include, but not be limited to: rodents, uncleanliness, insects, piled trash.

We will not be held to a contract - whether verbal or written - if those moving are abusive, verbally or physically, to the employees of Boyce's Moving Service.

Boyce's Moving service must be paid in full prior to any claim for damages.

We are not allowed to transport paint cans, spray paint cans, gasoline, kerosene or propane. Make sure not of these items are packed in any containers to be moved by us.

WE DO NOT MOVE WEAPONS OF ANY KIND - INCLUDING AMMUNITION. Do not even ask!

Appliances must show external damage before we accept liability for their not working after a move. Further, proof of prior working may be necessary.

We are not responsible for computer equipment failure - due just to transporting. Computers often have internal parts vibrate loose from moving which is not the fault of the mover. If possible, transport computer equipment yourself.

We will not be responsible for items stacked up in open boxes. We offer inexpensive boxes for sale if you need them.

We are not responsible for creating a path to the items to be moved. This includes, but is not limited to: excess muddy conditions or flooding, trash removal (unless contracted to remove) or furniture items blocking the path.

We are not responsible for snow removal. It is your responsibility to see we can reach the items to be moved. If there is snow and ice on your porch, we will not risk injury to our crew. We will leave and reschedule at a time when you can ensure a safe entrance into your property.
