Request Unloading Help

Storage Unit Loading & Unloading

Loading a storage unit, unloading one, or moving belongings between a unit and your home.

A storage unit counts as its own location, so it is reviewed and approved before the move.

Furniture Disassembly & Reassembly

Taking furniture apart so it clears the doorway, and putting it back together at the destination.

Best for
Bed frames, and anything that will not fit through a doorway or stairwell assembled.

Optional Add-On

Need Us to Pick Up and Return Your Rental Truck?

Add rental-truck pickup and return for $49. You reserve and pay for the truck in your name, then add our approved driver to the rental agreement. We pick up the truck, bring it to your move, and return it afterward.

Pending review — this add-on is never approved automatically. Availability depends on the rental location, your reservation time, driver availability, and the rental company’s rules, and must be confirmed before your move is approved.

Add Truck Pickup & Return — $49

What stays your responsibility

The $49 covers our pickup-and-return labor only. It is not the truck rental.

  • The reservation must be in your name
  • You reserve and pay for the rental truck
  • You hold the agreement with the rental company
  • You add our driver as an authorized driver, and the rental company must approve them
  • You complete the rental company’s identity and payment requirements
  • Rental charges, mileage, and fuel remain yours
  • Tolls, deposits, taxes, and rental-company fees remain yours
  • Insurance selections and damage obligations under the rental agreement remain yours

Video description

A six-second clip from a real job. A mover carries a tall wooden cabinet up the ramp into the back of a rental box truck. A red stair-capable hand truck stands ready beside him, and furniture already loaded is visible along the truck wall.

Save your back — this is the part we do. Six seconds from a real job in Essex County, NJ.

“They are the most hard working team of young men that I’ve worked with! Kind, dependable and affordably priced! They stayed past the scheduled time to make sure that the job was complete before they left! It was a horribly hot day and they worked in the direct sun loading a semi truck trailer and never once complained or slowed down! They were truly life savors for me and my husband. If we were ever in the area again and needed movers I would only use them! Highly recommend to everyone!”

“Diego and Co. are top notch! Arrived on time, stayed in contact before, during and after the work. Very communicative, respectful, courteous and professional. Would not hesitate to use them again.”

If Something Goes Wrong

Our Damage Promise

We wrap it, pad it, and carry it like it’s ours. If we break something, we own it — and we tell you exactly what that means before you book, not after.

  1. Tell us right away Tell the crew before they leave, or text photos to 862-640-0625 within 24 hours.
  2. We look at it together No claim forms, no case numbers, no waiting on hold. You talk to the owners directly.
  3. We make it right Repair, replacement, or a credit off your balance — agreed with you in writing before we close out the job.

What we cover

  • Items we handled that were sound when we picked them up
  • Breakage — glass, screens, snapped legs, cracked frames
  • Gouges, punctures and structural damage we caused
  • Damage from a load we dropped, tipped or mishandled
  • Damage to your walls, floors or doorframes caused by our crew

What we don’t cover

  • Pre-existing damage and normal wear on used furniture
  • Light scuffs and surface marks — an unavoidable part of moving furniture that has already lived in a home
  • Boxes you packed yourself, where we could not see or check the contents
  • Particleboard and flat-pack furniture that cannot survive being taken apart — we tell you before we touch it
  • Anything loaded, driven or unloaded when we were not there
  • The rental truck itself — fuel, tolls, mileage, deposits and vehicle damage stay under your rental agreement

We’re a labor-only crew, not a licensed carrier, and we don’t sell moving insurance or valuation coverage. If you’re moving something you’d be sick to lose, add the protection plan at your rental counter or check your renter’s or homeowner’s policy before move day — and we’ll tell you straight if we think an item needs it.

Common Questions

Questions People Ask Before Booking

Is the rental truck included?

No. You reserve and pay for the rental truck in your own name. Move It Clear It provides the moving labor and equipment.

If you would rather not collect the truck yourself, we offer optional pickup-and-return labor as a separate add-on that has to be reviewed and confirmed before your move is approved.

Does the price include loading and unloading?

Yes. The room-size prices are for a complete move: loading at the pickup address and unloading at the destination, plus carrying, lifting and placing your furniture in the room you choose. One loading location and one unloading location are included. Loading-only and unloading-only jobs are quoted from the work required.

What happens if something gets damaged?

Tell the crew before they leave, or text photos to 862-640-0625 within 24 hours. If we broke it, we make it right — repair, replacement, or a credit off your balance, agreed with you in writing before we close out the job. We do not cover pre-existing damage, light scuffs and surface marks on used furniture, boxes you packed yourself, or flat-pack furniture that cannot survive being taken apart. The full list is on this page under Our Damage Promise.

Can my approved price change?

Only with your approval. Your flat rate covers the inventory, locations, services and access conditions you submitted. If something on move day falls outside that, we stop, explain the charge, and wait for you to approve it before doing the extra work.

What equipment does the crew bring?

Reusable moving blankets, a flat dolly, a stair-capable dolly, a shoulder dolly, straps, basic hand tools, and protective wrap or mattress protection when it is needed. Floor and doorway protection is used where it applies. This equipment is part of the labor price. Boxes and packing materials are optional and priced separately.

How does the temporary $49 authorization work?

Submit your move request with a temporary $49 authorization hold. The hold is captured and applied toward your total only after we approve your move. If the request is declined, the hold is released.

How do I pick the right move size?

Pick the package that matches the home you are moving out of. If you are between two sizes, or you are not sure, choose the larger one or select Need a Quote in the request form and list what you have. We confirm the correct package and the final price before approving the move.

Ready to Request Your Move?

Tell us what you are moving, where you are going, and what access conditions to expect. We review the details and confirm your crew, date, and flat-rate labor price before approval.
