Rates and details checked with NextGen Moving in November 2026.

1What does packing service include?

Packing and unpacking are labor, billed in the same hourly rate as the rest of your move. There's no separate packing fee: the time our crew spends packing is part of your move.

2Which materials are free, and which cost extra?

Every move includes one roll of plastic wrap and packing tape at no charge. Moving blankets, wardrobe boxes and TV boxes are yours to use during the move and go back with the crew at the end. Small, medium and large packing boxes are available at an additional charge, or you can supply your own.

Need to keep blankets or boxes, for storage for example? Tell us in advance: you can buy what you need to keep, or provide your own.

3Can you add packing help on moving day?

If you find you need packing help you didn't plan for, tell the crew or call us. We do our best to accommodate it, subject to availability and the details of the request.

I used this company a year or two ago, and recently I needed to move again. I was pleasantly surprised that they remembered me as a client and even offered me a discount. That was so thoughtful! The very next day everything was organized and my move was done quickly and carefully. I truly recommend this company!

KKelly M.on Yelp

I found this company through a friend who moved with them before, and I'm glad I did. I have a lot of flowers and different vases, big and small, and I was worried about how they'd make it through the move. The team wrapped everything carefully with blankets and the right tools, and all my delicate items arrived safe. The movers were on time, polite, and worked quickly without rushing. Overall, everything went smoothly and I'd definitely recommend them.

CCanujion Yelp

Hard working, honest and very professional. They moved items from our entire family home to our new house with absolutely no problems. Their prices are very fair as well! I highly recommend!

KKeya B.on Yelp

My move with Nextgen Movers was excellent. From the first phone calls inquiring about pricing and availability to completing the move this was a very professional, competitively priced and low stress experience. The moving team was outstanding! Max, Den and Oskar were great! I would gladly recommend this company and this team! Give them a call!

AAndy B.on Yelp

It took a little bit longer than I thought it would but these guys did a great job! They showed up on time, worked hard, made sure my stuff was protected, loaded the truck right, and got me completed relatively on time! Thank you both!
