Moving
Loading/Delivery
It is now possible to get a shipping container to a residence to load your (HHG) House Hold Goods. This process is called (Live Load) and can be done by a moving company or the owner. We give 2 hours loading time and charge a per hour fee after 2 hours, if necessary items can be shuttled to a warehouse by you or a moving company to load at a warehouse. Having a Moving Company shuttle the items adds to the cost of the move, but it sometimes cannot be avoided. Top of the Line Transport can help to shuttle the goods from the home to a warehouse. There is also the process of the container being delivered and picked up at your request. This process is called (Drop and Pull) and can be done by a moving company or the owner. This process would be more costly due to having a drop fee as well as daily chassis and or pier diem fees.
Professional Movers
Choosing a moving company may seem like an overwhelming task. The Internet is full of them – how do you choose? Some of them do not know where the Virgin Islands is, much less how to ship there. Those that do may charge you a premium because it is considered an International move. Top of the Line Transport has a great system that allows you to select the mover of your choice, without concern for the above fears. We can also select a mover from our network and put them in contact with you to arrange for a site survey. Whether you contact the mover, or it is our referral, we talk with the mover after the survey to get critical information to complete pricing in the move. Top of the Line Transport is with you in all of your move decisions, providing guidance and avoiding disappointment.
Cost factors:
Most people who hire professional movers choose full-service. Although you could do a self-service move to save money, long-distance moves with lots of heavy, valuable items are best left to the professionals. In addition, cargo insurance for do-it-yourself moves is limited, and covers only damage caused by total loss disasters such as crashes or fire.
Factors that might affect the cost of the move include:
Packing: If you want to save money, it’s best to pack as much as you can on your own, leaving only the hardest tasks for the movers.
Staircases: Expect additional costs based on the number of staircases they need to use.
Pianos: Movers typically charge extra for each piano they move.
