Before you book in Montclair
Do you bring the materials to Montclair?
Yes — dish packs, wardrobe boxes, paper, tape, all itemized in the estimate.
Is professionally packed safer for claims?
Yes, in a practical sense: boxes we pack are boxes we stand behind, and self-packed cartons complicate any damage claim. Our claims guide explains why.
What about things movers can't take?
Flammables, chemicals, and perishables stay off the truck no matter who packs. The non-allowables page lists them and what to do instead.
