Full Service Movers
Full Service Movers in Utah
Some moves are simple. A studio apartment, a few pieces of furniture, a truck you drive yourself — that can work. However, most household moves are more complex. There are multiple rooms, fragile items, heavy furniture, appliances, and a timeline that doesn’t stop for anything.
That’s where full-service movers come in. Utah’s Premier Moving Company provides full-service moving across the Wasatch Front. We’re based in Utah County, and we handle every step — packing, loading, transport, and unloading. As a result, you don’t have to lift a finger on moving day.
What “Full Service” Actually Means
The term “full-service movers” gets used loosely. Because of that, it’s worth clarifying what we actually include. When you hire a full-service mover, the crew handles the physical work of the move from start to finish.
Specifically, that means:
-
Packing — wrapping dishes, boxing fragile items, and organizing by room
-
Furniture preparation — disassembling beds, tables, and other pieces
-
Furniture wrapping — padding and protecting every piece before it moves
-
Loading — carefully placing items in the truck to prevent shifting
-
Transportation — driving everything to your new home
-
Unloading — placing items in the rooms you want them
-
Reassembly — putting furniture back together at the destination
In other words, you’re hiring one crew to handle everything. That’s different from labor-only services, where you rent the truck and manage the driving yourself.
Full-Service vs. Labor-Only vs. DIY
Not every move needs the same level of service. Below is how the three main options compare.
Full-Service Moving
This is the most hands-off option. In addition, it’s the right choice when you have a complex move — multiple rooms, specialty items, or a tight timeline. The crew handles everything from packing to unloading.
Labor-Only Moving
Some homeowners rent their own truck or container and just need help with the heavy lifting. If that’s your situation, our labor only movers page covers how it works.
DIY Moving
Some moves are manageable without professional help. However, DIY moves take significantly longer, carry injury risk, and require you to rent and drive a truck. For smaller moves, DIY can make sense. For larger ones, hiring a professional crew usually saves time and stress.
What’s Included in Our Full-Service Move
Below is what a full-service move with Utah’s Premier Moving Company actually includes.
Packing and Materials
Our crews bring the boxes, padding, tape, and wrapping materials. As a result, you don’t have to shop for supplies or worry about running out. For more details, see our packing and unpacking services page.
Furniture Protection
Every piece of furniture is wrapped and padded before it leaves the home. Because of that, surfaces stay protected during the move. Our furniture movers page covers specialty items like pianos and large mirrors.
Loading and Unloading
Crews load the truck in a specific order to prevent shifting during transit. On the other end, they unload and place items in the rooms you want them.
Transportation
We drive everything to your new address. Whether you’re moving across town or to another city along the Wasatch Front, transport is included.
Optional Add-Ons
Some services can be added to a full-service move. For example:
-
Unpacking — we unpack boxes and organize items at your new home
-
Junk removal — we clear out items you don’t want to move
-
Furniture delivery — for single-item moves alongside the main move

You’ll receive a clear estimate and an explanation of what’s included.

We’ll confirm whether you want packing included and when the crew should arrive.

-
If you chose unpacking, boxes are organized by room for easier settling.
How to Prepare for a Full-Service Move
Even with full-service help, a little preparation goes a long way. Below are the most useful steps.
A Few Weeks Before
-
Sort through items and decide what to keep, donate, or discard.
-
Schedule junk removal if you have items you don’t want to move.
-
Confirm your booking and let us know about any specialty items.
A Few Days Before
-
Pack personal items you’ll want on the first night — toiletries, chargers, medications, and a change of clothes.
-
Defrost the refrigerator and freezer if they’re moving.
-
Drain water from washing machines and other appliances.
On Moving Day
-
Clear walkways and paths for the crew.
-
Keep pets and small children in a safe area away from the loading zone.
-
Have parking arranged for the moving truck.
What Affects the Cost of a Full-Service Move
We don’t publish flat rates because every move is different. However, here’s what drives the cost:
-
Number of rooms and total items — more rooms and items mean more labor time.
-
Crew size — more movers means a faster move but a higher hourly rate.
-
Access — stairs, narrow doorways, and long carries add time.
-
Packing services — if we pack for you, that adds materials and labor.
-
Specialty items — pianos, safes, and oversized furniture need extra equipment.
-
Distance — local moves are billed hourly, while long-distance moves are priced by weight and distance.
-
Time of year — peak moving season runs late spring through early fall and can affect availability.
The best way to get an accurate number is to request a free estimate. We’ll ask about your move and provide a clear estimate before you commit.
Why Choose Full-Service Movers?
Some homeowners consider doing the move themselves to save money. However, there are real advantages to hiring a full-service crew.
Time Savings
A full-service move is completed in a fraction of the time a DIY move takes. In other words, you save days or weeks of work.
Fewer Injuries
Moving furniture causes strains and accidents. As a result, a trained crew reduces that risk.
Better Protection
Professional movers use proper equipment and techniques. Because of that, your belongings are less likely to be scratched or damaged.
Reduced Stress
Moving is one of the most stressful life events. Therefore, delegating the physical work helps you focus on the transition.
One Point of Contact
With full-service movers, you work with one company instead of coordinating several. As a result, communication is simpler.
