"This was my first experience with a moving company, and I could not be more pleased with the service offered by Saunier. Tommy was very professional during the whole process and very accurate with his estimates. On moving day, the guys were very punctual, and did not disappoint. They were in and out in just a couple of hours. Mike, Carlos, and David really made light work of oddity of items they were asked to move. Saunier made this interstate move a breeze! Highly recommended."

"Tony and his crew moved me from Cincinnati to Richmond, VA and I couldn't have had a better experience. Tony came out to give me a free in-home estimate and was super easy to work with to schedule my pick-up and drop-off dates. His guys were fast and efficient both loading and unloading and all my belongings were handled with care. I have several pieces of antique furniture, all of which arrived without a scratch. Even my old, flimsy, press board shelves arrived intact (I honestly didn't think they'd survive another move, but they live to see another day!). Moving is stressful (especially long distance moves), but knowing your belongings are going to be taken care of and arrive when they're supposed to makes the whole process much easier. Truly cannot recommend Smooth Move enough!!"
"I started my search for a moving company through friends and family but none have had a move experience in many years. So, I turned to Google, which is craziness at best. The reviews are all over the place and so many companies to choose from. I narrowed the search to three companies, and based on price, they were all very similar. Tony with Smooth Move was the only one willing to accommodate our need for day after Thanksgiving, so this was a plus, Tony ( the owner) was very responsive for calls and texts, and he was very clear on the expectations for the move. Based on our move inventory, he recommended a 4 or 6 man crew with the cost difference and estimated hours to move with either choice. We settled on a 5 man crew with one truck. I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the move experience. We had never used a moving company before, and I had expected all types of issues based on reviews of ALL moving companies and horror stories from other people. Tony and his team did a fabulous job. We highly recommend Smooth Move."

| Upright piano | $728 to $1,365 |
| Baby grand piano | $1,092 to $2,275 |
| Grand piano | $1,638 to $3,185 |
Upright pianos weigh 400 to 800 lbs. Grand pianos exceed 1,200 lbs. Trained crews use piano boards, straps, and padded blankets to prevent structural damage that standard moving equipment cannot safely manage. Bundling a piano into a household move with full-service movers is usually cheaper than hiring a piano-only carrier.
How much does antique handling cost in Georgetown?
Antique handling is available from 4 of 7 Georgetown movers (57.14%), compared to 46.24% nationally. Vincent Fister Inc. (4.56/5) and From Here To There, LLC (4.42/5) rate highest for antique care in Georgetown. Adding antique handling to a household move adds $910 to $2,275 to the total cost.

| Added cost to a household move | $910 to $2,275 |
| Per-piece handling fee | $46 to $455 |
| Custom crating per item | $137 to $182 |
Custom crating and acid-free padding protect pieces that standard released-value coverage at $0.60/lb cannot adequately cover. A 50-lb antique valued at $5,000 receives only $30 under default protection, making full-value coverage the standard choice for heirloom and high-value items.
How much does art packing cost in Georgetown?
Art packing is available from 4 of 7 Georgetown movers (57.14%), compared to 45.76% nationally. Vincent Fister Inc. (4.56/5) and From Here To There, LLC (4.42/5) rate highest for art packing in Georgetown. Per-piece art handling in Georgetown runs $46 to $455, with custom crates adding $137 to $182 per item.

Archival materials and custom crates prevent UV exposure, humidity damage, and impact fractures that standard moving blankets cannot guard against for framed artwork and sculpture. Confirm the mover has direct experience with similar media before booking.
How much does climate-controlled storage cost in Georgetown?
Climate-controlled storage is available from 2 of 7 Georgetown movers (28.57%), compared to 33.2% nationally. Saunier Moving & Storage, Inc. (4.44/5) and My 3 Son's Moving (4.2/5) rate highest for climate-controlled storage in Georgetown. Storage-in-transit runs about $0.50 per cubic foot per month, putting a 1-bedroom load (about 514 cu ft) at roughly $234/month in Georgetown.

| 1-bedroom monthly estimate (~514 cu ft) | $234 |
Climate-controlled units regulate both temperature and humidity, preventing warping, cracking, and mold in wood furniture, vinyl records, and electronics that temperature-only storage cannot protect. This matters most for storage gaps longer than 30 days or for moves that span seasonal humidity swings.
How much does fragile-only packing cost in Georgetown?
Fragile-only packing is available from 2 of 7 Georgetown movers (28.57%), compared to 23.83% nationally. Vincent Fister Inc. (4.56/5) and Saunier Moving & Storage, Inc.
