A prepared household
Use suitable containers, label receiving rooms and separate essentials. Tell Milvus what furniture or fragile contents still need attention.

Milvus moves Stoughton households and apartments, including the agreed belongings beyond the main living rooms. Add packing for the contents you need help with and show us the larger furniture and access. We will review the full inventory and receiving plan before the appointment.
Your estimate depends on the items, access and services you need.
Prefer to talk? 857-895-8955| Area | Details for the moving list |
|---|---|
| Living rooms and bedrooms | Furniture, cartons and items needing preparation |
| Kitchen and cupboards | Packed contents and any professional packing required |
| Basement or other storage | The accepted items, quantities and access route |
| Garage or outdoor storage | Describe contents individually and confirm acceptance |
| Another address | A separate inventory and receiving arrangement |
Identify unusually heavy, delicate or awkward items. Do not add them to the ordinary carton count without discussing suitable preparation and handling.

Open the storage areas you intend to include and decide what is travelling. Give Milvus an approximate carton count and describe loose furniture or other accepted belongings that still need preparation.
Keep excluded items clearly identified. Arrange donation or disposal separately unless an additional service has been specifically agreed, and do not mix that group into the moving inventory.
Describe stairs, narrow doors or another entrance used to reach the stored contents. A basement load may need a different route from the furniture in the main rooms.
Use suitable containers, label receiving rooms and separate essentials. Tell Milvus what furniture or fragile contents still need attention.
Choose selected contents, rooms or the agreed household. Confirm materials, labor and when preparation will take place.
Describe usable clearance, the proposed loading area and carrying distance.
Send actual flights, exterior steps and photographs of tight openings.
Identify assembled-in-place pieces and agree on dismantling and reassembly.
Check final rooms, keys and any reserved moving window.
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.
Confirm the moving date category, crew and truck with the complete inventory. Milvus is based in Waltham; ask how the full route, travel and minimum billing are included.
Have packing labor, supplies, agreed furniture work, extra stops and applicable access-related charges explained. If the stored inventory changes after the quote, update Milvus before moving day.
A move outside Massachusetts needs an interstate estimate and delivery arrangement for the actual destination. Do not assume the local table determines the out-of-state total.
Arrange a recipient and usable access to the agreed rooms.
List that group separately and provide the address, access and timing.
Confirm the inventory, duration, conditions, access, handling and redelivery charges.
Have a different situation? Call 857-895-8955 and talk it through with Milvus.

Do not assume it is. Arrange excluded items separately unless a specific additional service has been agreed.
Yes. Include a separate inventory, access, recipient and timing for the additional stop in the quote request.
Send dimensions, construction and condition, plus photographs of limiting doors, stair turns and the receiving route.
Discuss it before pickup and confirm inventory, duration, conditions, access, handling and later delivery charges.
