Every mattress is kept in its own specific box.
Armoires are dismantled and wrapped twice using blankets; we then use cardboard to protect the glass.

My husband and I are very happy with the great service we were given by John. He is very professional and personable. He has been a pleasure to work with. We would not hesitate to contact John and “Move Happy” should we recommend John and their services to us and others.

Move Happy was the only professional moving company offering a rate that was not inflated due to covid-19. They were friendly, efficient and considerate. Furniture arrived safe and sound, nothing broken. I recommend them. I will advise that if you have any vintage/antique pieces that you don't want disassembled for compact packing, be sure to set those aside. I have moved several times and in this move a couple lamps I didn't know could be taken apart arrived in pieces in boxes. I put them back together, but I would have been happier if the old lamps had been left alone and boxed up in one piece. Help the movers do their job as best as they can by being ready for them with boxes securely packed and clearly labeled. Overall, I really appreciate the services provided by the Move Happy team and I recommend them.
Top tips for an efficient move
Prioritize your packing
Packing well is the secret to a successful move. First, declutter and then categorize your items. Once done, place them in boxes and organize them accordingly. Make sure the packing material is of high quality so they're fully protected. And make sure you check what we've packed for you, too. As part of our set price, we provide you with a list of items we cover.
Anticipate traffic and delays
Even though we do everything possible to ensure a smooth and stress-free move, situations can occur that are outside of our control. Therefore, we suggest anticipating traffic or other delays, and any additional circumstances when it comes to your move. The best way to prepare for any setbacks is to check for any events close to or happening on your moving day.
