How we handled it

Once the initial walkthrough of the Durand residence was complete and the desk assessment confirmed, our movers followed a structured, step-by-step process designed to eliminate the issues the client faced with the previous company.

Protection & packing

  • Strategic Disassembly: The executive desk was carefully disassembled, with all hardware bagged and taped to the main structure to ensure nothing was lost during the move to Corktown.
  • Full furniture wrapping: Furniture was protected immediately before loading, utilizing heavy-duty padding to prevent scratches or damage during the transfer from the home to the truck.
  • Secure load stability: Items were packed tightly and securely within the truck to withstand the drive along Hamilton's busy one-way streets, preventing shifting during transit.

Moving method

  • Calm & steady pace: Nate and Alex maintained a calm pace throughout the day, ensuring no rushed decisions were made, which directly addressed the client's past frustrations.
  • Clear communication: Communication remained consistent from start to finish, keeping the client informed about the desk's status and ensuring the move remained structured and organized.
  • Expert Reassembly: Upon arrival in Corktown, the team reassembled the desk immediately, ensuring it was sturdy and ready for use before leaving the premises.

What Our Client Said About This Move

"These guys rule. I used GetMovers last year and honestly didn’t realize how good I had it until I tried different movers on my next move. That other company took almost double the time on a smaller job and still couldn’t even finish it, which was frustrating to say the least. I ended up calling GetMovers again last week to see if they could handle a desk the other movers gave up on. No hesitation at all. The move around the Durand area went smoothly, and they disassembled the desk, moved it, then put it back together without any drama. Big thanks to Nate and Alex for jumping in, working fast, and staying friendly the whole time. Kinda wish I had just stuck with them from the start."
