Who prepares what before the truck arrives?
| Belongings or task | Agree before the appointment |
|---|---|
| Ordinary cartons | Who packs them and the approximate finished quantity |
| Fragile contents | Items, packing materials and labor required |
| Furniture parts | Disassembly, hardware and any agreed reassembly |
| Items staying | A clear list or marking system to exclude them |
| Special equipment | Acceptance, dimensions, preparation and access review |
The furniture list and its contents are different parts of the inventory. A cabinet on the moving list does not establish who packs the glassware inside it.
Furniture preparation
Keep the fittings with the piece they belong to
Tables, shelving and other furniture may include extension leaves, removable parts and hardware. Tell Milvus what is present and discuss the preparation before taking anything apart. If you remove parts yourself, identify them clearly with the furniture.
Show existing damage, loose joints and delicate finishes. Photographs of the condition and construction help explain the item, particularly if it was assembled in the room and has never passed through the doorway in one piece.
Agree on the work at delivery too. Ordinary moving does not automatically include repairs, restoration, wall mounting or appliance connections. Have the required furniture assembly specified in the estimate.
Pick the service scope
Bring the help your household needs
Add partial packing
Choose fragile belongings or rooms. Explain what remains unpacked and agree on labor, supplies and timing.
Arrange broader preparation
Request household packing alongside the move. Keep daily essentials available and coordinate preparation around occupied rooms.
Check both properties
Explain the carrying route with useful photographs
From the vehicle to the door
Show loading space, driveway approach, steps, slope and carrying distance.
Through the entrance
Give usable door openings and photographs of any tight turn for larger furniture.
Between floors
Include stair landings, low ceilings and the furniture dimensions that matter.
At the destination
Check the final room and any building moving hours, reservations or paperwork requirements.
Rates and your estimate
Published Leicester local moving rates
Milvus publishes five date categories for local moving. The table shows the hourly rate for a crew with a truck. Confirm the category for your date and the complete booking terms before accepting your estimate.
| Date category | 2 movers + truck | 3 movers + truck | 4 movers + truck |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discount | $110/hr | $160/hr | $210/hr |

| Peak | $180/hr | $230/hr | $280/hr |

Additional mover and additional truck rates are $55/hour each in the Discount category, $65/hour each in Regular, Subpeak and Peak, and $75/hour each in Highpeak. Ask which crew and vehicle arrangement fits your inventory.
The hourly rate is one part of the estimate. Confirm minimum billable time, travel, packing labor and materials, access-related work and any other applicable charges. A move is not booked by viewing these rates.
Before moving day
Review the plan while changes are still manageable
Match the estimate to the load
Check furniture, cartons, addresses and services. Explain extra items or a new stop before the appointment.
Complete your preparation
Finish agreed packing, identify components and mark belongings staying at the property.
Make both properties available
Arrange loading access, keys and receiving instructions. Tell Milvus promptly if a restriction or date changes.
Coordinate the receiving arrangement
A gap between homes belongs in the original plan
For direct delivery, arrange keys and an available recipient with room instructions. Keep the route clear and space available for assembly included in your estimate. Share any fixed receiving window before booking.
For storage, identify the inventory and likely duration. Confirm conditions, access, handling and redelivery charges before collection. Keep medication, documents and everyday belongings you need during the gap with you.
Milvus is based in Waltham. Have travel, billable time and minimum billing explained for the Leicester appointment. If the destination is outside Massachusetts, request an interstate quote for the route and delivery arrangement.
