A Central Florida thunderstorm doesn’t check anyone’s calendar first: a 3pm downpour rolling in off I-4 can close a driveway just as fast as it closes a road. Marcus learned to build schedules around exactly that kind of disruption during nine years running overnight warehouse freight, and Get Done Moving books packing appointments the same way: planned around the weather, not derailed by it.
What our packing service covers
- A top-to-bottom pack of the entire house, or a narrower visit limited to the kitchen and closets
- Purpose-built rigid crating for framed artwork, flat-panel televisions, and wall mirrors, alongside divided cartons for your dinnerware
- Materials selected for how Central Florida swings between humid summers and milder, drier winter stretches
- Rolling wardrobe boxes with a built-in bar, so hanging clothes transfer directly off the rod
- Room labels go on every carton the same day it’s packed, ahead of the truck ever arriving
- Unpacking and empty-carton removal at the new place, if you’d rather skip that step yourself
A narrower job means a lower number
Scope the request down to breakables alone and your total comes in well under whole-house pricing. Whatever complicates access, say, a gated Winter Springs subdivision or a scheduled loading-dock reservation near Cranes Roost, gets worked into that figure before Marcus ever finalizes it, so nothing changes later.
What a packing appointment looks like
- The crew arrives fully stocked Whatever mix of carton sizes and wrap your home needs, it’s already on the truck when the crew shows up.
- One room, sealed, then the next A space is completely packed and closed up before work starts on another.
- Breakables get their own treatment Glassware, electronics, and artwork are cushioned separately from standard boxes.
- Everything staged near the exit By the time the truck pulls up, cartons are already grouped and labeled by the door.
