INTERSTATE MOVING CAN BE EASY! You just need a little support! Please allow us to help you get the job done as quickly and painlessly as possible. We are moving professionals with HUGE BOX TRUCKS (26’), dollies, furniture pads and tools. Best of all, we are clean-cut young men that charge $150 per hour FLAT RATE (extra $10/HR Fri-Sun)! Our prices are much less than the big guys because we are locally owned and efficiently managed by UK MBA graduates. Not paying franchise fees allows us to charge customers less while paying our clean-cut and responsible movers more. | 2 Specially Trained Packers/Organizers = $100/HR ... 2 Clean-Cut Movers + 26 Foot Moving Truck = $165/HR ... Add a third mover = $65/HR ... Extra $15/HR Fri-Sun ... We start and stop the clock at your home and charge by the minute - no rounding up!

"This was my second time using Wildcat Moving, and I would definitely use them again. Jelani and Travis were an excellent team who worked with me through a stressful emergency move."

Just sit back and relax, our movers got this! With over 2000+ 5-Star reviews on all affiliated websites, we have the right to call ourselves the #1 movers in southern indiana with a top 5 RANKING IN THE LOUISVILLE AREA. What is provided with our full-Service moving company is a fully Equipped 26' box truck. If you need two, three, or four trucks we have them ready to go. All of our Moving trucks are equipped with all materials for your Local or Long Distance Move, including Dollies, Moving Blankets, Moving Straps & an unlimited supply of tools. we are completely prepared for your relocation. when hiring our professional louisville movers, it is a guarantee their is no more worrying about breaking your back, hiring that "rogue" local moving company, getting into arguments with family or friends, trying to get people to help you move. ITS AWFUL AND TIME CONSUMING. You have more important objectives to worry about, let OUR PROFESSIONALS movers handle the heavy lifting!

"Military Servicemembers and Veterans Beware! Kentuckiana Moving LLC claim to do a lot of military moves but do not function or govern themselves the way military movers do. It was nice not have to inventory each individual item but they do not move expeditiously and strategically to maximize efforts and time. I met Justin a few days prior to the preferred date to move my HHGs from a local storage unit to a residence 4.7 miles up the road. I had about 13000 lbs worth of furniture and agreed to pay for a fourth person and an additional truck to help the process move more efficiently at a rate of $240/hr and $100 per truck. Although the moving crew were friendly and respectful, they were late upon arrival, took an hour lunch, and several extended breaks in excess of five minutes to fold up moving blankets or chat amongst each other. When one crewmember went on break, they all went on break so the day got unnecessarily longer. When all the furniture was moved into the house, my beds, desks, recliner, and table, were left unassembled. Although all the boxes were labeled, heavy items were placed on top of fragile item, and like items were not grouped together as requested. Justin informed me that whatever I needed the movers to do, they will do but showed up with any tools to put anything together. I do appreciate them for putting the bed frame up so I didn’t have to sleep on the floor. When it was time to pay, the military discount was not reflected on the contract and I was charged for materials we didn’t use or need to facilitate the move. The contractual agreement was not shared until the crew arrived that includes different verbiage than the information on included on the initial quote. The crewmember sped through the contract on his mobile device which was difficult to read and stated the verbiage was the same as indicated in the quote which was not the case. I didn’t have the ability to pick my valuation as that was selected by the crew regarding damage coverage. Basic Value Protection is based on $.60/ per lb/ article whereas as the “Actual Value Damage Coverage with $250 dedutible” is based on $5.00/ per lb/ article. There is a clause in the contract that is not beneficial for military servicemembers and was not disclosed prior to signing knowing the DoD handled your HHGs prior to Kentuckiana Moving LLC. The disclaimer reads: PLEASE NOTE BEFORE SIGNING: Due to their fragile nature we do not cover damage to electronics, refrigerators, appliances, glass, ceramics, particleboard furniture, flooring, or plants. We are not liable for the contents of containers not packed by our movers. We are not liable for any damage resulting from improper preparation/packing by customer. We do not dismantle refrigerators in any way. Please double check appliance connections, as we are not responsible for resulting damage including water leaks. In some cases tracking soil onto flooring is inevitable, we are not responsible for any damage. Our liability on loading jobs ( no transportation of goods are performed by Kentuckiana Moving, LLC) terminates once the truck has been loaded. This contract is legally binding and you signature is evidence that you understand and accept the terms outlined by the agreement.” I was unaware of the debit/ credit card surcharge of 4% until it was time to settle the bill. Even though I paid via Zelle, I didn’t receive a payment confirmation or final invoice showing the service was paid in full. I called the office the following day to have the bill adjusted and request a paid invoice but was unable to reach anyone on the phone. After calling several times without success, I physically went to the office to talk with Justin about my moving experience. After he assured me he would process the refund on the credit card used to pay my initial deposit, more than two weeks have elapsed and I haven’t received the refund or receipt. I shouldn’t have to wait to receive my refund on my credit card when I paid with cash. Although Kentuckiana Moving LLC claim to be a veteran-owned business, I cannot recommend their moving services to other military servicemembers or veterans."

Long Distance Moving & Storage. Household, Commercial, International, Corporate services available. Our Mission is To exceed expectations on every move. We live this day in and day out. Our service is top notch and fully efficient. Our trucks are perfectly equipped for moving with Pads, dollies, Plastic and much more. We provide Long Distance Moves across the entire country, directly from our West Coast HUBS located in AZ, CA, OR and WA. Or, we team with our partner companies to complete moves together. We are proud to provide a service that no other company offers; Dedicated Trucks. This means that your belongings are loaded on the truck and not combined with anyone else’s items (from/to west coast only). They are not transferred to other trucks or facilities in route which causes damage and loss of items (typical with van lines). We have a set loading day and unloading day. This is by far the safest way to ship. Our interstate rates are per 24ft moving van that holds up to 8,500lbs or 1400CuFt. Some customers require one truck and some require more. One truck holds the average 1800SqFt.

"I cannot say enough great things about All Service Moving—and ESPECIALLY Rico and Reyes, who were absolute lifesavers for my last-minute move. After another moving company bailed on me the day before my scheduled move, All Service swooped in and saved the day. Rico and Reyes showed up EARLY, upbeat, and ready to tackle the challenge—even with super heavy furniture that usually requires a 4-person crew. Somehow, the two of them handled everything like pros without a single scratch or ding—on the furniture or either home. What really stood out was how personable, kind, and thoughtful they were. They moved quickly and efficiently, knowing I was paying by the hour, but never once sacrificed care or quality. They were kind to my mom (who was helping me out), and so sweet to my two dogs too. If you’re planning a move, ask for Rico and Reyes by name. They went above and beyond, and I want their team to know what a fantastic job they did. They deserve every bit of recognition. 100% recommend."

FAQs for out-of-state moving service projects in Lexington, KY

Midweek days, particularly Tuesdays and Wednesdays, offer lower rental rates due to decreased demand. Weekend rentals often command premium pricing, and truck availability becomes more limited toward the end of the week. Early morning reservations provide better selection options. If your schedule allows for flexibility, planning a midweek move can result in notable savings and improved vehicle availability.

Most consumer rental trucks fall below 26,000 pounds gross vehicle weight rating, meaning a standard driver's license is sufficient in most jurisdictions. However, these vehicles handle quite differently from passenger cars. Before embarking on your journey, familiarize yourself with the truck's dimensions, turning radius, and blind spots. If you're uncomfortable with larger vehicles, consider practicing in an empty parking lot before navigating busy roads.

Moving trucks often cost less than portable storage containers for similar distances, with truck rentals ranging from $1,000 to $3,500 for long-distance moves. Portable containers offer the advantage of not having to drive a large vehicle and allow for flexible loading/unloading schedules, but this convenience comes at a higher price point. If budget is your primary concern and you're comfortable driving larger vehicles, a truck rental will be more economical.

Fuel expenses depend on your travel distance, the truck's fuel efficiency, and current gas prices. Most moving trucks achieve 10 to 20 miles per gallon when loaded. For accurate budgeting, calculate your route's total mileage, divide by the expected MPG, and multiply by the current fuel price in areas you'll be traveling through. Maintaining steady speeds and avoiding aggressive driving can help maximize fuel economy during your journey.

Most rental companies charge an additional day's rate for late returns, which will add to your total cost. Some companies also assess extra mileage charges if you exceed your estimated distance. If delays appear inevitable, contact the rental office promptly to discuss extending your agreement. Early communication may help minimize additional fees and prevent complications with subsequent reservations.

Booking your truck several weeks before your move date secures better rates and ensures availability of your preferred vehicle size. During peak moving season (summer months) or if you require a larger truck, making arrangements further in advance is advisable. Last-minute reservations often cost more and may leave you with limited options, particularly for popular truck sizes. Planning ahead reduces stress and often results in more favorable rental terms.
