We provide usual and customary disassembly of headboards, footboards and dresser mirrors. Some furniture items such as large wall units or light bridge headboards require a more complex process and may require more time. Please discuss this type of item with your consultant. We will advise you of the additional time and or expense and possibly the need for a third party specialist.

He was very helpful in helping me select the appropriate amount of assistance/boxes/equipment for the moving process. I never received a phone call but I wasn't bothered by that since I had spoken with Beltway only two days before the move. Despite my bad luck of scheduling the move when several streets near my home were closed, the crew leader persevered and was able to get the truck to my building in time to complete the move. I really appreciate them going the extra miles (literally) to help me with what can be a stressful process. Recommend? Absolutely! I hope I don't have to move again anytime soon but if I do, I'll definitely call Beltway again!” Jill K.
