Movers and loaders — loading, unloading and carrying upstairs

Movers and loaders are for carrying, not driving: unloading a truck, taking building materials up with no elevator, removing furniture or moving a heavy wardrobe. Say in an order what to carry and to which floor, and movers will send responses — or choose a crew yourself by prices and reviews.

Movers and loaders

How much hourly movers cost

What affects the price

  • Hours and crew size

    You usually pay by the hour for each mover, and there is often a minimum of a few hours, even if the job takes less.

  • Floors without an elevator

    Carrying upstairs without an elevator is often charged per floor, while a freight elevator noticeably shortens the job.

  • Carrying building materials

    Bagged cement and mixes, tiles or drywall are often charged not by the hour but per bag, sheet or ton for each floor.

  • Heavy and awkward items

    A piano, a safe or a cast-iron bathtub needs more people, straps and moving dollies, so such items are usually charged separately.

  • Distance from the vehicle

    If the vehicle cannot park by the entrance, things have to be carried a long way across a yard, through an archway or up narrow stairs — that adds time.

Prices come from specialists' profiles on Nexperity and update automatically. You agree the final price with the specialist directly.

How to choose movers

  1. 1

    Crew and equipment

    Name the heaviest item and the floor, then ask how many people will come and whether they will bring straps, dollies and furniture blankets.

  2. 2

    Partial hours and waiting

    Check whether you pay for their travel to you and for waiting if the vehicle is late, and how a partial hour is rounded.

  3. 3

    Taking furniture apart

    A wardrobe or a corner sofa that will not fit through the door has to be taken apart. Ask whether the movers can do that or you will need a separate handyman.

  4. 4

    If something gets damaged

    Agree before the job starts who pays if a stairwell wall gets scratched or something gets broken, and put it in writing.

  5. 5

    Bags or a piano

    Carrying bags upstairs and moving a piano are different jobs. Look for movers whose services or portfolio include similar tasks.

What to put in the order

The more precise the description, the more precise the prices in responses.
  • What needs doing: unloading, carrying upstairs, carrying out or rearranging

  • A list of items, the weight and size of the heaviest ones, and the number of bags or boxes

  • The floor, whether there is an elevator and whether it is a freight elevator

  • How far the entrance is from where the vehicle will park

  • Whether furniture needs taking apart and whether things are packed

  • The date and time you want, and whether a vehicle is already arranged
