The Cost of Moving Services in Gainesville, VA

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

In Gainesville, 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.

They arrived early, and worked hard every minute until we were done. They were careful with our furniture but fast and efficient. And tried to be as helpful as they could be, even with little things such as stacking the heavier boxes on the bottom and lighter on top in the new place to make unpacking easier. Truly a blessing to have had them! Thank you so much!

The reservation process was seamless. The rep for All Aboard Moverz called to confirm and to answer any questions I had. The group that showed up were professional, efficient, and very personable. They left such a good impression that I personally requested them for another upcoming job. I was very pleased with them and their work ethic.

The two movers were timely and very pleasant however we paid a lot more for the move than they got paid because I asked them. It was a quick job of getting a heavy piece of furniture up a shortish staircase. They also drove a long way to get to my house. We tipped them and they were very appreciative.

Jose and Wualter were amazing. They arrived on time and brought dolly’s with them that could easily carry items down the stairs which was so helpful. We had never hired movers before so I wasn’t sure what to expect but we would definitely use them again. They were so quick and efficient. Don’t hesitate to book them - you won’t be disappointed!

Team did an awesome job, very efficient. We ended up getting a lot more done than I expected. Only complaint is the washer or dryer was dropped by the stairs and caused minor damage to the wood floors. Would call this team again!
