Selected furniture
List every piece and all addresses. A smaller load still needs crew, preparation, travel and minimum billing reviewed.

Will your largest piece fit around the stairs in your Lynn building? Share photos and dimensions with Milvus before pickup. We move selected furniture or a full household, with packing and storage available when needed.
Your estimate depends on the items, access and services you need.

A sofa, cabinet or bed frame can decide how a room needs to be prepared. Give Milvus the dimensions and show the usable doorway opening, stair landing and turning space. Include ceiling height where the route is tight.
Explain how the item entered the room and whether it was assembled there. Discuss any disassembly, component packing or other preparation before booking rather than waiting until the furniture reaches the door.
The receiving property needs the same check. A piece that leaves one apartment easily may face a different stairway or doorway at the next address. Choose its destination room before delivery.
| Feature | Helpful information |
|---|---|
| Staircase | Floor, landing turns and photographs of the full route |
| Doorway | Usable opening and space on both sides |
| Vehicle position | Where the truck can stand and distance to the entrance |
| Managed building | Moving hours, elevator booking and paperwork requests |
Keep cartons off stair landings and out of shared passages. Arrange access through the entrance the crew will use and explain any locked gate or side door.
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 |
| Regular | $120/hr | $170/hr | $220/hr |
| Subpeak | $150/hr | $200/hr | $250/hr |
| Peak | $180/hr | $230/hr | $280/hr |
| Highpeak | $260/hr | $360/hr | $460/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.
List every piece and all addresses. A smaller load still needs crew, preparation, travel and minimum billing reviewed.
Include furniture, approximate cartons and stored areas. Flag fragile items that remain unprepared.
Request delicate belongings, rooms or the full home. Agree on materials, labor and the preparation schedule.
A cabinet, its removable shelves and the fragile contents inside it may need different packing. List those parts explicitly and decide what you will prepare and what Milvus will handle. Keep removed hardware identified with the relevant piece.
Point out delicate finishes, loose joints and existing condition concerns before the furniture is wrapped. For artwork, a piano or an unusually heavy item, provide dimensions and access so handling can be reviewed before the appointment is confirmed.
Restoration, repairs, wall mounting and technical connections are separate work. Have the required moving preparation and assembly specified rather than assuming all related tasks are included.
Have keys, an available recipient and rooms identified. Share any moving hours or another delivery using the entrance.
Define the stored inventory and expected duration. Confirm conditions, access, handling and later delivery charges before collection.
Milvus is based in Waltham. Ask how travel and billable time are calculated for the Lynn appointment, along with crew, date category, minimum billing and other applicable charges. Compare the same load and services when reviewing estimates.
For a destination outside Massachusetts, request an interstate quote with the actual route and delivery arrangement. Tell Milvus before moving day if the inventory grows, packing remains unfinished or receiving access changes.
Have a different situation? Call 857-895-8955 and talk it through with Milvus.
Provide dimensions and photographs of stairs, landings and doorways. The carrying route and preparation need review before booking.
Explain its construction and removable parts. Agree on any disassembly and later assembly before the appointment.
Yes. List each piece and all addresses, then confirm crew, access, minimum billing, travel and preparation in the full estimate.
Identify the contents separately and agree on who packs them. Materials and labor should be part of the service scope.
Discuss the inventory and dates before collection, with storage conditions, access, handling and redelivery confirmed.
No. Confirm the applicable date category, crew, time calculation, minimum billing, travel and additional services for your complete appointment.
Send both addresses, dates and inventory. Include dimensions and photos for difficult furniture, plus stairs, loading access and packing needs.
