Specialized Equipment & Training Needed for Salt Lake City Local Moving
Reliable Salt Lake City local moving companies offer more than just labor to move heavy boxes and furniture; they deliver specialized equipment, in-depth training, and experience which are crucial to:
- Preventing obstacles before they delay your move
- Ensuring belongings are unharmed
- Seamlessly handling the logistics of your relocation
- Delivering an efficient moving experience
Special equipment is used by Salt Lake City local movers to accomplish these goals. Experienced movers maintain a fleet of new, well-maintained 20- and 26-foot moving trucks with shock absorbers and specialized moving boxes, or the part of the truck that rests on the chassis, with doors and ramps customized for safe moving. Every local move employs equipment including straps, furniture blankets, box and furniture dollies, wardrobe boxes, and tools to make sure every item is carefully protected and secured through every stage of your move to prevent scratches, damage, and loss.
It isn’t enough to have the right equipment and trucks for the job: the best Salt Lake City local moving company also employs and trains dependable crews and equips them with technology that makes their job safer and easier. Top movers go through a background check and intensive training process to learn the right techniques for disassembling/assembling furniture, transporting belongings, packing, preparing a home, and driving a large moving truck. Special training for items like pianos is also critical to make sure your belongings make the trip unharmed.
How Much Does a Salt Lake City Local Move Cost?
What is the Salt Lake City cost to hire local movers? Cost is a major concern when you’re relocating, especially if you’ve never hired Salt Lake City local movers before. This question can be tricky to answer as it depends on many factors.
As a general rule, Salt Lake city local movers rates are hourly plus packing materials and supplies. Your estimate will be based on:
- The distance of the move
- Amount of belongings
- The type of local move – Single-family home, apartment, in-house, or senior move?
- Number of movers needed
- Level of service, such as labor-only or full-service
- Whether you have specialty items such as oversized furniture, a pool table, or a piano
- Prep work
- Accessibility – Second floor apartment? Is there a service elevator? Do items need to be hoisted?
There are many ways to reduce the cost of your move including doing some of the work yourself or making sure your home and belongings are ready for the packers and movers. The best way to estimate your cost is by requesting a free Salt Lake City local movers quote from Wasatch Moving Company.

How Do You to Choose the Best Salt Lake City Local Movers?
Moving is hard work and you want to make sure you get the right local moving company in Salt Lake City for the job. Unfortunately, there are plenty of fly-by-night moving companies and even scam artists who take advantage of people but inexperienced movers without the right equipment can be just as harmful. How do you choose the best moving companies in Salt Lake City to get the affordability, reliability, and customer service you deserve?
We recommend starting with Salt Lake City movers reviews on websites like Google and Yelp. Look for an overall positive trend and potential red flags like frequent mentions of the same problems.
The next step? Verifying the company’s credentials. Reliable local movers in Salt Lake City are licensed and insured with a good safety rating which you can verify with their USDOT number.

- How long have they been in business?
- How much experience do they have with similar moves?

- How many moves do they perform each year?

The guys who came to load and unload everything got it done in less time than was expected. We moved enough items to fill a 3 bedroom, and they loaded it, while dealing with 3 flights of uneven stairs, in less than 3 hours and were able to unload it in less than an hour. The guys were very helpful and worked so hard. They put all items exactly where we asked them to. And they were very friendly and helpful, explaining each process.
They moved a solid oak entertainment center with no difficulty, which when we moved in took almost 30 min alone to move into the apartment. They moved it like it was nothing.
They even moved a DVD case that was heavy itself anyway, but adding the weight of the movies themselves, can barely be moved when full. They also had use leave non breakable items in drawers and cabinets, which saved hours of packing for us. I was only charged for extra materials, like mattress bags, and then an hourly rate. Very transparent billing process. The office was there for me every step of the way, and set everything up via text messaging, which was easier for me. They even responded to questions on Sundays at 8 pm. We have never used a moving company before, and when I originally started calling for quotes I was shocked at the prices. All the hourly rates seemed reasonable, but then there were all the extra fees. Wasatch was the only one I found that was strictly hourly with no additional costs. It was low pressure and just truly amazing how professional and efficient they were. I saved hundreds of dollars. And I had been worried that because they were hourly, they may drag it out to increase the cost, but each of the 3 movers didnt stop or slow down at all. What would have taken us, with the help of friends and family, a couple of days, they completed in less than 5 hours including travel time. I will definitely use Wasatch if I ever need to move again, and I plan on recommending them to anyone else who may need assistance with moving. I would have tipped the crew more had our budget not been as tight as it was. The guys earned every penny of what we spent read lessJamie Cook5 days agoThese guys were awesome!!

The three guys were very nice and respectful, I never felt concerned about my stuff. They wrapped and padded everything very well. The worked very fast and efficiently. Once at our storage shed they unloaded the truck quickly. I would recommend them to anyone. The one negative I have is that no one came out to actually give us as estimate and they almost didn’t send a big enough truck. All we did was tell them what we thought was going to go. When you are moving someone should be present to see how much stuff you have do that they can best evaluate the situation. All in all I would definitely hire them again. read less
