Full Packing Service
Ask an Asheville household what throws a move off the rails and most point to the packing, the chore everyone defers until one frantic evening is all that is left. Hand it to us and it stops being yours to worry about.
What the full pack covers
The crew works the house in order, boxing everything to survive the trip, and the truck rolls in already stocked with cartons, tape, paper, and dish barrels. Every box leaves marked for its room at the new place, and both the materials and the hours are written into the quote you already signed.
Every room, top to bottom
Plates, glassware, the shelves of books, the linens, the dresser drawers, all of it gets packed, including the spaces people dread most: the basement, the crawlspace, the cupboard under the stairs.
In a Montford three-story those cartons travel back down a turning staircase; at a ridge cabin, the obstacle is the gravel lane and the haul across the porch. The crew clears each space in turn, wraps every item to suit it, and stacks the truck so the load rides steady on the I-40 grades.
Materials we bring
| Item | What it protects |
|---|---|
| Dish barrels & double-walled cartons | Dinnerware, stemware, the china hutch |
| Fragile-rated dish & glass boxes | Anything breakable |
| Wardrobe boxes | Hanging closets |
| Made-to-measure crating | Mirrors, framed art, lamps, TVs |
| Room tags | Every box, so it lands where you meant |
The day-of checklist
- Basement, closets, and the under-stair cupboard packed, none of it dumped on your last night
- A scope held to the kitchen and breakables when you would rather pack the rest yourself
- The whole-house pack usually run the afternoon before, leaving move day to the load-out and the road
- A smaller place packed and on the truck the same morning, getting you out ahead of an ice storm
- The same Open Box crew on the packing and the driving, so no finger-pointing over a damaged box
Why it earns its keep
A box built by a professional packer survives the road in a way a midnight rush job never will. I have watched more than one kitchen arrive in shards because the owner stacked glasses bare.
Hand the breakables to the crew and federal coverage backs them: 60 cents per pound under released value, or step up to a full-value tier at roughly one to three percent of whatever you declare.
