Moving vocabulary

These general definitions explain terms used when discussing a move. Availability, handling and charges belong in the written estimate.

Relocation
Relocation is the transfer of a household or business from one address to another. It can include planning, packing, transport and unpacking, depending on the services arranged.
Local Move
A local move is a transfer over a relatively short distance, often within the same city or surrounding area. The number of trucks and the time required depend on the shipment and conditions at both addresses.
Long-Distance Move
A long-distance move is a transfer over a substantial distance and may remain within one state or cross state lines. The route, shipment and services influence the agreed pickup and delivery arrangements.
Furniture Disassembly
Furniture disassembly is the removal of legs, rails, headboards or other detachable parts from large pieces before loading. Reassembly should be confirmed as part of the agreed service.
Self Storage
Self storage is a rented space where a customer keeps belongings and controls access under the facility rules. Temperature control, access hours and other features depend on the unit and provider.
Moving Box
A moving box is a corrugated carton manufactured in standard dimensions for packing and stacking household goods. Heavier items are placed in smaller boxes so that each carton remains manageable.
Stretch Wrap
Stretch wrap is a clinging plastic film applied around furniture, protective pads or loose bundles. It helps hold coverings and grouped items in place and can reduce exposure to dust.
Furniture Pads
Furniture pads are protective blankets placed around furniture before and during loading. They help cushion contact with the truck walls and other items, reducing the risk of surface damage.
Piano Moving
Piano moving is the specialist transfer of upright and grand pianos, instruments of substantial weight and delicate internal parts. Protection, equipment and crew arrangements depend on the piano and the access route.
Moving Estimate
A moving estimate is a written statement of expected charges for a described shipment and services. Its terms, including whether it is binding or non-binding, determine how it relates to the final bill.
