The Cost of Moving Services in Gilbert, AZ

Curious about moving costs in Gilbert? You generally have two options for moving services at different price points. Labor-only movers are the most affordable option. You handle the packing, driving, and renting the truck or moving container, while your movers take care of the loading and unloading.

If you'd rather skip the moving process entirely, full-service movers handle everything—loading, driving, unloading, and even tricky parking situations. It costs more, but it's the easiest and most convenient way to move. Your choice comes down to your budget and how involved you want to be.

Here’s a comparative look at the average costs.

We were very happy with Regan Legacy Movers. Dakota and his helper, James I believe, were both very polite and proficient. I just had a couple of simple instructions that I passed on to them and they went right to work. Before I knew it they were finished and had done a perfect job. Moving is never easy, but these two young men certainly took a lot of the stress out of it for us.

Paul and Chase came prepared and did a great job. They were experienced movers and took time to wrap everything and stack the storage pod tight so things wouldn't shift around during shipping. They were respectful and brought ramps and hand trucks with them to move the heavy stuff. Make sure you have plenty of moving blankets and shrink wrap on hand so they can do their job.

Great movers. They wrapped everything with pads and plastic wrap, and fit everything into the pod. I had enough pads and wrap and this is probably one of the most important things you can have ready in preparation for your move.

Pro tip: Book ahead as far as possible to get the best rates!

Tip 1: Brace for Surprise Monsoons

Gilbert’s monsoon season runs from June to September and can bring sudden dust storms and heavy flooding. If you're moving during this time, take precautions.

  • Track the forecast: Check the National Weather Service or local news. If storms are expected, plan an earlier start to dodge midday rains.
  • Shield valuables: Use tarps or blankets to protect electronics and upholstered furniture from dust and moisture.
Bonus Tip: Drive with caution. If visibility drops during a dust storm, pull over and wait it out—safety first!

Tip 2: Schedule Bulk Trash Pickup for a Pre-Move Declutter

Clearing out unwanted items before moving day helps streamline loading and keeps your new home clutter-free. Gilbert’s bulk trash program is a convenient way to ditch that old couch or broken table. Here’s how to use it:

  • Check the calendar: The Gilbert Solid Waste Division posts monthly pickup schedules by neighborhood.
  • Prep your items: Break down large pieces, remove sharp edges, and place everything curbside on time.
Bonus Tip: You can also donate gently used furniture or appliances to reduce waste and support your local community.

Tip 3: Keep Pets Safe on Moving Day

Moving day can be chaotic, and pets may become anxious or accidentally escape. To ensure their safety and comfort:

If boarding isn’t an option, keep your pet in a quiet, secure room with familiar items like toys or bedding to reduce stress.

Bonus Tip: Schedule a meet-and-greet with the boarding facility ahead of time to ensure your pet is comfortable with the new environment.

Frequently Asked Moving Questions in Gilbert

You've got moving questions — we’ve got answers. Learn what to expect when moving in Gilbert.

It depends on how big your home is. A small apartment might take a couple of hours, while a large house can take half a day. Factors like stairs, heavy items, and furniture assembly can add extra minutes. For a tailored time frame, fill out all details on HireAHelper. We’ll show real-time availability and accurate estimates of how many movers you’ll need and how long your move will take.

If you need to reschedule, first contact your movers as soon as you know you’ll have to change dates. Then, log in to your HireAHelper account to update your move date and time. We won't charge a fee if you give at least 48 hours’ notice, but last-minute changes can incur fees. The sooner you reschedule, the easier it will be to lock in a new spot.

While tipping isn't required, it’s always appreciated. Many customers tip around 15% to 20% of the total cost. If you’re not sure how much to give, check out our guide for more details.

Gilbert roads are most congested during rush hour, typically between 7–9 am and 4–6 pm on Loop 202 and US-60. To dodge traffic, schedule your movers for midmorning or early afternoon. Keep an Arizona traffic app handy so you can reroute quickly if there’s an accident or construction backup.

The cheapest day to hire movers is typically Sunday. Midweek moves often see lower demand, which can translate to a lower price tag. If weekends are off-limits for your schedule, moving on non-peak days can help keep costs lower.
