Sometimes you don't need a whole move — you just need one heavy, awkward thing relocated. A sleeper sofa that won't fit through the door, a refrigerator going to a new place, a Peloton heading across town, a mattress you bought secondhand. Hauling it yourself usually means renting a truck, recruiting friends, and risking a hernia or a scratched floor. We move single items quickly and safely so you can skip all that.

One item, done right

Single-item moves are exactly what they sound like: you've got one large piece that needs to get from point A to point B. We bring the truck, the dollies, the straps, and the muscle to move it without damage to the item, your floors, or your doorframes. It's the easiest way to handle the stuff that's too big for your car and too heavy for a favor.

Common single items we move

Couches and sectionals, mattresses and bed frames, refrigerators, washers and dryers, treadmills and exercise equipment, dressers and armoires, desks, dining tables, and that one impossibly heavy piece you've been dreading. If it's large, awkward, or heavy, it's a candidate for a single-item move. For pianos, safes, and other true specialty items, see our piano and specialty moving pages.

Furniture moves and deliveries

Single-item moves are perfect for furniture you've just bought or sold. Picked up a couch off Marketplace? Sold a dresser that needs delivering? Bought furniture from a store that doesn't deliver? We'll pick it up and drop it off, handle the stairs, and get it placed where you want it — no truck rental required on your end.

Quick and affordably priced

Because a single-item move is fast, it's billed hourly with our short minimum, which usually keeps it affordable. The biggest factors are the stairs, the walking distance, and whether the item needs disassembly to fit through doorways. Tell us the item and both addresses, and we'll give you a straight quote.
