When should I call Armbruster Moving
& Storage, Inc.?
The key to a successful move is planning and organization. If you require a written in-home estimate, you should call about 3-4 weeks before your move. The more notice you give us, the better everyone can plan.
How long does Armbruster Moving & Storage need for an in-home estimate?
Usually no more than an hour.
What are my responsibilities?
In brief ...
- Be present during the packing of your belongings.
- Take personal responsibility for jewelry and other
high value items.
- Check and sign the inventory of your belongings.
- Ensure that no prohibited items are packed.
So what can or can't I take with
me?
Generally speaking, dispose of all flammable
items, liquids, foods and other items that should not be
shipped. Anything that can deteriorate should not be
shipped. If you have a question about something, just
call and ask.
Anything that we
can definitely not send in the moving van?
Well, mainly those things you might expect - drugs,
alcohol, weapons, ammunition. Shipping certain high
value items or collections may require you to purchase
extra coverage.
Suppose I pack myself?
Why not? But be aware of the potential problems. For instance, valuation coverage will not pay out on goods packed by their owner, unless the exterior of the box is damaged.

Every home is different, but we can normally pack a home in 1-2 days.
Can I leave my clothes in their drawers?
Yes, you can. Just be sure not to leave anything solid that can damage the piece.
