Time and vehicle arrangement
Milvus is based in Waltham. Confirm crew, date category, truck arrangement, minimum billing and how travel contributes to billable time.

Move your North Andover household with furniture, packed contents and stored belongings accounted for. Milvus handles the move and offers packing for selected rooms or the full home. Include the garage and basement so the quote covers the load you are taking.
Your estimate depends on the items, access and services you need.
Prefer to talk? 857-895-8955List furniture and approximate cartons, including contents inside cabinets and storage furniture.
Include tools, shelving contents and accepted equipment you intend to take.
Count packed clothing, decorations and belongings stored outside everyday rooms.
Separate items going to storage or an additional address. Identify anything staying behind.
Two homes with the same number of bedrooms can need very different packing and loading work. Give Milvus the larger pieces and estimated carton quantities, then identify fragile contents and anything unusually heavy or awkward.
A short video or a set of room photographs can help explain the inventory. Include stored areas rather than stopping at the main rooms. Tell us whether you want packing, furniture preparation or only the agreed move of a prepared household.
For appliances, a piano or unfamiliar equipment, provide dimensions, known weight and the carrying route before booking. Confirm acceptance and the required preparation; utility connections and specialist work should not be assumed part of ordinary moving.

Group the stored belongings you are taking and leave access to shelving and larger items. Include cartons, tools and equipment in the estimate before the crew and vehicle arrangement are chosen.
Identify unusual equipment and any required preparation before booking. Describe the item, known weight and access route so acceptance and handling can be reviewed. Keep items staying behind separate from the load.
At the receiving property, decide which room or stored area each group belongs in. Arrange keys, an available route and someone who can give the crew clear placement instructions.
| Location | What to explain |
|---|---|
| Driveway or street | Usable truck position, turning space and restrictions |
| Approach to entrance | Distance, slope, steps and surface |
| Inside the building | Doors, stairs, landings or elevator |
| Final room | Narrow opening, furniture dimensions and assembly needs |
Send photographs of the limiting sections. A car fitting on a driveway does not establish that the same position works for a moving truck. Agree on loading and unloading arrangements before the scheduled day.
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.
Milvus is based in Waltham. Confirm crew, date category, truck arrangement, minimum billing and how travel contributes to billable time.
Have packing supplies and labor, furniture preparation, extra stops and applicable access-related charges explained in the estimate.
Coordinate access and receiving times at both properties with the agreed inventory.
Confirm duration, conditions, access, handling and redelivery charges before collection.
Request an interstate estimate for the route. A nearby New Hampshire address still needs the appropriate moving arrangement.
