When to Hire a Mover for Loading and Unloading

March 10, 2022

Have you rented a  mobile storage unit and now you're wondering how you're going to load it? Or maybe you've filled the boxes for your move but your back won't stand the heavy lifting needed to load and unload them onto the rental truck. Well, never fear because professional help is at hand!

Loading Your Mobile Storage Unit

You can't just throw items into something like a POD or Pack-Rat and expect it to arrive at its final destination unscathed. These units require careful packing in order to ensure that everything will fit and arrive undamaged. Professional movers have the experience, equipment, and proper lifting techniques to do just that.

Save Money on Your Move

Saving money on transportation costs is the main reason for the popularity of moving truck rentals. However, there's no reason why you can't combine professional loading or unloading services along with your truck rental. Doing so has several benefits besides monetary savings.



  • You'll have a better idea of which size truck you actually need once you have a professional estimate.
  • Your goods will be loaded quickly, efficiently, and safely.
  • The movers will do all of the heavy lifting.
  • A rental truck with the weight properly distributed is easier and safer to drive.
