International Moving Services in Louisiana
The size of your apartment or house will play a big role in determining how much you’ll end up paying for the move. The number of rooms is used to estimate how many belongings you have, so it will influence the quote.
However, the actual price can only be determined once we arrive to pick everything up. So, if you have any excess belongings you forgot to throw away, now is a great time to get rid of them. The fewer things you’re moving, the less you’ll pay for their transport.
Our team can also assist you with packing everything up, with packing materials, and with anyanything else you might need for your move. If you have any requests, let us know.
