The Cost of Moving Services in Akron, OH

Beyond factors like home size, heavy items, and stairs, the biggest cost difference comes down to your moving service type.

In Akron, you can choose a full-service move, where your moving team handles everything after you pack, or a labor-only move, where your movers simply load and/or unload your truck or container—offering big savings in exchange for more work on your part.

Very contentious about handling our stuff while moving. Some things got broke in transit, not by Them Movers. They hauled it to the curb for us. Once they got the layout they were placing items in the proper rooms with little direction. We had half our stuff stored in a room above the garage. They carried it without issue. Will use them again if we move.

Edwin and his crew were beyond amazing. My husband had thousands of books that needed to be loaded into two PODs. They stacked everything like a perfect jigsaw puzzle. Incredibly hard working. Always perfectly polite, friendly, and organized. Worked nonstop for six hours straight, very dedicated. Truly a remarkable crew. Highest recommendation!!!
