HOME MOVING, PACKING & STORAGE SERVICES

Full-Service Packing and Unpacking
With our full-service packers and movers, you can get the assistance you need to get your move prepped and ready to go, without all the hassle. Using only the best materials and techniques, our professional packers and movers are experienced, background checked and well trained to provide the best level of service possible. If you don’t have the time to pack your home yourself, the full-service option takes a lot of stress off you while we handle it all. We also offer partial packing services to meet your budget and needs, and will only pack the items you tell us to.
Storage Services
Not sure what’s going and what’s staying? We offer secure household goods storage to keep your personal belongings secure for as long as you need. In certain locations, we offer temperature- or climate-controlled storage options to safely store delicate or temperature-sensitive items.


Specialized Moving Services
If your home move includes the relocation of specialty items like pianos, classic cars, motorcycles, boats or even pets – don’t worry, we have you covered. Since opening our doors over 100 years ago, we have seen and moved almost anything, so you can feel confident that we will handle all your items with the highest level of care and protection. We only work with highly-trained professional movers who are background-checked and experienced in moving clients who demand the best.
TRUST GOES A LONG WAY
Otis and Tony were on time, got right to work and had us moved out in less than 2 hours for a 1-bedroom apartment. They were courteous, professional, hard-working and efficient. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a long-distance move!

I cannot say enough positive about the entire Suddath experience. It felt like family was doing our move from the original quote, to pick up and delivery. Our driver was amazing

Everything went well. Friendly representative with virtual visit. Everything was completed as promised. Keep me informed when loading would happen and arrival in Buffalo. The two men who unloaded the truck were careful, polite and did a great job. I would recommend. My long distant move went very smoothly and was very pleased.

I had a wonderful experience with Suddath Van Lines..from Sherman Reed who provided me a quote using a video app to walk thru my entire home to assess and inventory an overall view.. to Tina who followed up on all the services from before initial pickup and after to before and after redelivery…to make sure all was well. I moved locally from my home to a newly built townhome in the same city of Jacksonville, FL. It was a complicated process that was made easier because of the full services provided by Suddath. It required Suddath to pack my belongings, store them for 11 days and redeliver them to my new townhome. Bill who was the driver and leader of a team of guys who packed and later delivered my belongings …were outstanding. Everyone was so respectful and diligent and everything was handled without a hitch. The careful and masterful packing was impressive. I must state that Bill is a Suddath Superstar. He is a master at driving and handling the truck. He called the day before and then again before arriving the next day. He also did the same when the redelivery was scheduled 11 days later. He scoped out the route it would take to arrive on time and leave in an orderly way. He was friendly and so organized and he methodically inventoried everything. He is a great leader of his crew…showing appreciation to each member throughout the process. They worked flawlessly together. I requested them to be the ones to deliver everything 11 days later after storage. Suddath hired experts to pack and reset up my grandfather clock and marbled table tops. I loved the fact that Suddath handled everything including climate controlled warehousing for 11 days my entire home furniture, paintings, mirrors and wardrobe. Suddath has been around a long time here in Jacksonville. The Suddath family had built a great reputation and they proved to be trustworthy professionals.

Fantastic experience from start to finish! A big thanks to Nick Christian, Stephen, Bonnie, Tyrone and the packing, moving and unloading crew (especially Joe) for all you did to help this recent widow relocate to a new home. I felt taken care of every step of the way. Will definitely recommend to others!

I would like to extend special recognition to the following individuals: Bill Rindle, Tasha McCrea, Leana Walker, Michelle Wade, Jamie Lettieri, and Tony Link, I do not know the names of the movers who assisted Tony Link with loading in Florida, nor the unloading in Cedar Park, Texas, however, they too deserve a special recognition for their professionalism. The reason that I chose Mayflower is because I have a history with the company, from my very first move from New Jersey to Florida in 2008 to my present move from Florida to Texas in 2020. The care and concern taken for my belongings lived up to my expectations, everyone involved was courteous, and their professionalism was second to none. Most importantly, everyone was pleasant and congenial at all times from the beginning to the end.

Joaquin Guzman was a fantastic contact for us to move from Philadelphia to Palm Desert, CA. He had helped us move from Los Angeles to Philadelphia in the past two years so we were delighted to have him again assist us with all the details. He is attentive, thoughtful incredibly prompt and detail oriented. Joaquin was with us all the way from original survey to final delivery. We had a great experience.

When you’re planning a move, it can feel like there are too many steps in your moving checklist to prioritize, let alone accomplish. Combine this with the fear of forgetting something, and you have a recipe for a far more unpleasant experience than moving needs to be.

MOVING COMPANY FAQ
We always recommend you check with your homeowner’s insurance first. While we probably have the best trained home movers in the industry, you must consider the elements like rain and snow. Having extra protection is something you should consider – we don’t think you’ll need it, but an educated consumer is a wise consumer.
All the estimates are no-cost and no-obligation. Whether you call in or use our option for a virtual walkthrough using your smartphone, a salesperson will look at what your needs are, and then give you a couple of choices. An example would be a ‘not to exceed’ or a flat rate. We look at your move, your budget, the particulars of your move, and then we present what we think is going to work best for you.
We have state-of-the-art facilities across the U.S., with probably the best security systems in the industry. We have ambient storage and climate-controlled storage. We have a variety of storage options that will allow someone to work within their budget and make sure that if there are any special requirements, we have the logistical ability to handle it.
The main difference between short and long-term, or permanent, storage is the time frame in which your household items will be stored. It’s important to remember that for interstate moves, your storage time may cap at 180 days. In either case, your items will be stored in a fully enclosed vault within a warehouse. With vault storage, our warehouse staff will pad wrap your valuables and carefully store them in the container.
The best security in terms of your home and belongings is a well-educated, well-trained driver. We train our drivers intensively through the Suddath University program, which is on-site in Jacksonville, FL.
As a local moving company, we use a combination of our own employees and contractors. The contractors are full-time, 100% dedicated to us. We grow our own, which is the best way to do it, and because of our prominence in the market, training and overall investment in our people, the best come to us. We’re very selective about who we let join our moving company.
There’s a vetting process where we’re looking at their driving record, background, the number of years’ experience, safety records, the quality scores, all those things determine if they have the right stuff to join the team.
As a professional moving company, Suddath is basically a one-stop-shop. We can help you find the realtor; we can give you the estimates that fit your budget, we can give you the packing materials, informational videos and more. We’re a very consultative moving company and provide support and visibility to your items every step of the way. We are not a high-pressure sale and, more than anything, we can make sure that our home movers have the empathy and experience to work with you in what can be a challenging process.
