Question 2

Accepted Answer

Yes, Majestic Mountain Movers is fully licensed and insured. We hold Colorado PUC License No. HHG-00576 and USDOT No. 3225248. This means your belongings are protected throughout your move, giving you complete peace of mind.

Question 3

How far in advance should I book my mountain move?

Accepted Answer

We recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance, especially during peak summer months (June-September) and ski season. However, we understand that moves don't always happen on your schedule — contact us and we'll do our best to accommodate last-minute requests.

Question 4

Do you work in winter and bad weather?

Accepted Answer

Yes! As a mountain moving company, we're experienced in navigating Colorado's winter conditions. Our trucks carry chains and shovels at all times to handle snowy roads and driveways. Our crews are trained for safe winter moving, and we monitor weather closely and communicate proactively about any potential delays.

Question 5

What makes mountain moving different from regular moving?

Accepted Answer

Mountain moves present unique challenges: steep driveways, narrow roads, tight turns, elevation changes, and unpredictable weather. Our crews live and work at altitude, so they don't experience the fatigue issues that Denver-based movers often face when working at 9,000+ feet. Our trucks are equipped with air-ride suspension and proper tires for mountain terrain. We know the quirks of every neighborhood from Breckenridge to Vail.

Question 6

How much do movers cost in Summit County?

Accepted Answer

Moving costs in Summit County depend on factors like distance, home size, access challenges, and services needed. Every move is unique, which is why we provide free, no-obligation estimates tailored to your specific situation. Contact us to schedule an estimate and we'll give you transparent pricing with no hidden fees.

Question 7

Do you charge by the hour or offer flat rates?

Accepted Answer

For local and long-distance moves within Colorado, we charge hourly — the clock starts when our movers leave our office and stops when they return. For overnight moves, the clock stops at the hotel and resumes when they leave the next day. For interstate moves, we offer guaranteed pricing by the truckload. The accuracy of your estimate depends on you providing complete information about everything being moved and the level of service you need. Things that can affect your final bill versus your estimate include: adding items on move day, changing your level of service, forgotten items (like that stuff in the barn or garage), or access issues requiring long carries from the truck. The more detail you share upfront, the more accurate your estimate will be.

Question 8

Are there any hidden fees I should know about?

Accepted Answer

No hidden fees. We believe in transparent pricing. Your estimate includes labor, truck, fuel, and basic equipment. We'll discuss any potential additional costs upfront, such as specialty item handling or extra-long carries, before your move day.

Question 9

Do you require a deposit?

Accepted Answer

We require a 50% fully refundable deposit to secure your moving date, which is applied to your final bill. The remaining balance is due upon completion of your move. We accept all major credit cards and checks.

Question 10

Do you offer packing and unpacking services?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! We offer full-service packing and unpacking to make your move completely stress-free. Our professional packers use high-quality materials to ensure your belongings are protected. For unpacking, we unwrap items and place them on flat surfaces — kitchen items on counters, dining items on tables, etc. We can also hang artwork and mirrors for you. We handle everything from dishes to artwork to entire home offices. We also offer haul-away of packing materials for an additional fee.

Question 11

Can I pack some things myself and have you pack the rest?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We offer partial packing services. Many customers pack their everyday items and have us handle fragile items, kitchens, or specialty pieces. We're flexible and can customize our services to your needs and budget.

Question 12

What packing materials do you use?

Accepted Answer

We use professional-grade materials: double-walled boxes, clean inkless newsprint, custom picture boxes, wardrobe boxes, and heavy-duty tape. Properly used newsprint provides excellent protection without the need for bubble wrap. Our materials are specifically chosen to protect your belongings during mountain moves where items may shift on winding roads.

Question 13

Do you provide boxes and packing supplies?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we can provide all necessary packing supplies. We offer box kits for different home sizes, or you can purchase individual supplies. We also offer eco-friendly options and can pick up boxes after your move for recycling.

Question 14

Can you move pianos?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We specialize in piano moving, including uprights, baby grands, and full grand pianos. Our team uses specialized equipment including piano boards, straps, and padding. We understand the unique challenges of moving pianos up mountain driveways and into homes with tight spaces. We also work with crane services when needed for difficult access situations.

Question 15

Can you move safes and gun safes?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We regularly move safes weighing 500-1,500+ lbs. We have the equipment (stair climbers, dollies, straps) and expertise to safely navigate these heavy items through your home and into our trucks. We also work with crane services when needed for difficult access situations.

Question 16

Do you move hot tubs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, hot tub moving is one of our specialties. We transport hot tubs safely but do not disconnect or reconnect them — you'll need a licensed electrician and plumber for those services. We also work with crane services when needed for difficult access situations.

Question 17

Do you move pool tables?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we disassemble and move pool tables. However, you will need to hire a pool table specialist to wax, refelt, and level the table at your new location — we do not provide those services. We also work with crane services when needed for difficult access situations.

Question 18

What about antiques and valuable artwork?

Accepted Answer

We treat antiques and artwork with extra care. We use custom crating, acid-free materials, and climate considerations for sensitive pieces. Our crews are trained in proper handling techniques for delicate and valuable items.

Question 19

Do you offer storage in Summit County?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we offer secure, insulated storage in Silverthorne. Our storage is full-service: we pad-wrap and inventory all items, and access is by appointment. It's ideal for between-moves storage, remodel storage, seasonal residents, or long-term needs. We charge by the cubic foot.

Question 20

Is your storage climate-controlled?

Accepted Answer

Our main storage facility is insulated but not heated. Items are pad-wrapped for protection. We do have limited climate-controlled storage available for certain temperature-sensitive items. Contact us to discuss your specific needs and we'll determine the best storage solution.

Question 21

Can I access my stored items anytime?

Accepted Answer

Our storage is full-service, not self-storage. Access is by appointment only. This ensures your items remain secure and properly organized. We can retrieve specific items for you with advance notice.

Question 22

How is storage priced?

Accepted Answer

We charge by the cubic foot, making it easy to pay only for the space you need. Contact us for a storage estimate based on your inventory.

Question 23

Do you move out of state?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We're fully licensed for interstate moves (USDOT No. 3225248). We regularly move customers to and from neighboring states and across the country. Our dedicated trucks mean your belongings are loaded once and delivered directly — no warehouses or transfers.

Question 24

How does interstate pricing work?

Accepted Answer

Interstate moves are priced by the truckload based on distance. No mixed loads, no shuttles, no fuel surcharges — your belongings travel on a dedicated truck. We offer guaranteed pricing with guaranteed pickup and delivery dates based on your schedule.

Question 25

How long does a long-distance move take?

Accepted Answer

We get your preferred move-out date and your preferred move-in date, then plan a move that meets both of those needs. Timing depends on distance and logistics — moves within Colorado typically complete in 1-3 days, while interstate moves may take 3-10 days depending on destination.
