Packing is the most time-consuming part of any move and the step where most damage happens. Apollo's professional packers do it every day with the right cartons, the right paper and the right techniques, so your dishes arrive intact and your closets arrive on hangers. Choose the level of help that fits your move.
Full-service packing
Our crew packs your entire home, room by room, the day before or the morning of your move. Every carton is labeled by room and contents and listed on your inventory. At Apollo, we treat your belongings as our own, so you can relax knowing your move is in the hands of qualified moving specialists.
Fragile-only packing
For items that are delicate, breakable or irreplaceable — china, crystal, artwork, lamps, mirrors, electronics, collectibles — let us know so we can pack them with the utmost care while you handle the easy stuff like books, linens and clothing.
Do-it-yourself packing
Prefer to pack everything yourself? We'll supply professional-grade boxes, dish packs, wardrobe cartons, paper, tape and tips through our moving supplies service. Our packing tips guide shows you how the pros do it.
Custom crating
Some items shouldn't travel in a cardboard box. We build custom wooden crates for oversized artwork, marble and glass tabletops, chandeliers, sculptures, antique mirrors and anything else that needs rigid protection for a long-distance move.
Unpacking, debris removal and box pick-up
As we unpack your belongings we clean up the debris. And when you'd rather unpack at your own pace, we offer a box pick-up service: once you're completely unpacked, call us and we'll come back to collect the empty cartons and packing materials so you never have to break down a single box.
