FAQs

How long does it take to move a home?

The best answer to this question is – it depends. There are many factors that influence how long your move will last. The weather, the distance, the size of your relocation etc.

When should I pay for moving services?

Normally, after the relocation is finished. Anyway, we suggest contacting the movers and asking if they have a specific deadline.

When is the best time to move?

There are two answers to this question.
○ If you want the best weather and full comfort for your move, summer is definitely the time when you should move.
○ If you want the best price for your move, then the off-peak season is the recommended time for your move. For moving, the off-peak season is winter.

When should I hire a moving company?

To make sure you’ll be able to hire the best movers and to get the best price, hire a moving company at least a few months in advance.

WHY MOVE WITH US

Our movers are trained, respectful, clean-cut and will handle your belongings with care. They are all full-time employees- NO DAY LABORERS!!!

All of our trucks are equipped with all the necessities such as blankets, dollies, pads, straps, shrinkwrap and much more to make sure all of your items arrive safely in the new location. We charge a flat hourly rate that is accurate down to the next quarter hour, so if we go 15 minutes into the next hour we don’t charge you for a full hour.

Since we are locally owned and operated our pricing is much less when compared to the larger moving companies. We don’t have to pay franchise fees, so we are able to pay our clean cut movers more (and get quality employees) while passing the savings onto our loyal customers.

REVIEWS

Had an excellent experience with Swift Moves! They were able to accommodate a last-minute change in the date of my move when my closing date got moved up, as well as worked with me on moving the time of the move back to accommodate the rain the morning of my move. Josh, Chris, and Tyler were awesome, fast, professional, and clearly knew what they were doing! Highly recommend Swift Moves!

Just had a local move with Jeremiah, Paul and Wesley. All three guys were professional , prompt and courteous . They wasted no time on securing our furniture etc and made sure we were pleased with the results. Great value at great price, would use them again.Thanks guys !

Swift moves is great! Kevin, Paul, and Ronaldo are top notch employees who worked really hard and beat the estimated time. These guys move! Recommend this company to anyone looking for no hassle move.

The Tim’s were great! Both movers names were Tim and they did a great job. We were moving from a 3 story Townhouse which meant a lot of stairs and turns. The Tim’s handled our stuff with care and it all got to our new place intact and pretty fast for having to maneuver the stairs. Would use Swift again and would recommend them to anybody looking for movers.

My movers, Tyler and Tyler were great! I called several different movers and they quoted me over $2k for a Sarasota to St. Pete move! Swift moves had the best quote. Tyler and Tyler were on time, funny, easy to work with, responsible, and quick! Not one issue or ounce of trouble! I highly recommend Swift Moves! Have already told my realtor about you guys to tell her clients! Thank you for making this stressful time a smooth transition!!

Jeremy is THE MAN! I got a job offer that has me moving in two weeks. That's not a lot of time, especially when Google gives you 40 different movers all 4.5 or higher. But here's what sets them apart. Even though Jeremy quoted a very fair rate, there were two movers that were cheaper. He took time to show me how they underestimated the hour, so that more could be tacked on. He pointed so much out to me that I was completely oblivious to. I never knew how many hidden fees there were in moving. I kid you not he spent over an hour helping me, even if he didn't get my business he didn't care. He cared that I got up there safely and with all my stuff in perfect order. This is why I will continually use Swift moving. From start to finish it was a white glove experience and one that I will gladly recommend to any friend who needs to move! Thanks again Jeremy!

I had an urgent move come up and they made sure to get my belongings from one place to a new storage unit (on extremely short notice) while I was out of state. They could not have been more responsive, helpful or professional. I cannot give them a high enough rating or recommendation!

Randall Broome

The quoting was responsive and a good value. The movers were fast and very professional ... they did a very good job packing and unloading. I would recommend them.

Thanks, Swift Moves! The person who received our call (sorry, I forgot his name) answered every question and gave a clear, well-explained quote that helped us make a decision that we felt comfortable with. The movers, Tyler and Jared, were courteous, professional, quick, yet careful.

Great team. I've used them twice now. They are reasonably priced and a pleasure to work with. They kept me informed about timing as the event approached. I got three movers and their truck. The team was efficient and careful, moving an upright piano, a heavy elliptical exercise unit, and a houseful of furniture, art and TVs. I definitely recommend them.

Pamela Hall

I had such a wonderful experience from setting up the move with Jestin all the way to the end of the move. I would highly recommend, and ask for Tyler, Zeric and Jared. These gentleman are extremely professional, efficient and really know how to get the job done right. They even stayed a couple minutes extra helping out putting the apartment back exactly how we wanted it. Thank you again Swift Moves !!!!!! ( not one item was even scratched)

Michael P

we moved our house with swift moves and Justin was very helpful and flexible on the timing. Tyler did the organization and filled the 26 ft truck. Chris was a beast and could carry anything and was very helpful. The whole crew was kind and courteous and did a great job.

Kerry Miller

15:56 07 Mar 22

Great experience and first time using movers. Jestin and team made it happen and they handle your belongings professionally and the owner and manager really care about their clients and we felt so well taken care of and got it all done quick!

Cedric and Keshawn are a dream team! Fast and professional. Heavy and expensive furniture handle with care- not a scratch on my walls. 10/10.

Swift moves moved my step mom and we we’re extremely disappointed. I understand things happen during moves and stuff gets broke, but what I can’t stand is when a company tries to hide those mistakes. I found the lamp in my own trash can. I guess they thought I wouldn’t find it in there. They took the plastic wrap stuff off everything but the sofa and now I know why. And they got an attitude when I asked if they would put a bed together for me. I understand they didn’t take it apart but I am paying hourly and a good amount per hour, as well. Finally after I told them I would throw them some extra cash, they agreed to assemble it. What you see in the picture is how they left it. I don’t even know what to say about that. Honesty goes a long way in life and if they were dishonest on this level, I just wonder how much more they are trying to sneak by customers. Definitely won’t get a recommendation from me.

I would like to give much credit and thanks to Tyler and his two guys for helping us move from St. Petersburg to Wesley Chapel on Saturday February 19th. They were fast and did an awesome job! Most of all they were all very respectful to my wife and I and our property. That says a lot!

Dustin Morrow

I’ve worked with this company several times. They always come out and do a great job. Would highly recommend.

The young men who moved us were incredibly professional, courteous and worked tirelessly. If I needed a mover again I wouldn’t look around-I would call Swift Moves. Totally outstanding.

Kenny Schaaf

15:23 17 Feb 22

The crew that was sent was very courteous and that is the reason for a 2 and not a 1 star. Even though they were courteous there was a lack of care with some of my larger furniture. While taking apart my desk that should have been handled by 2 people the one person dropped the top portion of my desk breaking the wood on the top of the desk. When the desk feel it put a large hole in the wall and it struck my 43” Sony TV And shattered that as well. They did knock $200 off the price but I’m still in the hole well over $700 replacing the TV, repairing the damage and losing 1/3 of my desk. I do not recommend.

Eileen Healy

Great local company, super friendly and helpful. Their crew was fast and efficient, showed up on time and ready to go. They charged us the agreed price, no hidden extras. We will definitely use them again!

A great overall experience. Tim and Shemar were amazing. They were professional, extremely personable, knowledgeable, and hard working. We had a couple odd items that went into a mobile home and it didn’t phase these guys at all.if I hired 10 different companies, 8 of them would’ve at least scratched a wall. Tim and Shemar communicated with each other ave executed those items flawlessly. Highly recommend!!

I moved with Swift Moves yesterday, and they were wonderful! I don't generally write reviews, unless I had over the top excellent service, and I definitely did with Swift Moves! They were professional, and moved my home with care. I give them 5 Stars and will be using them in my future moves!

Chris Cummins

22:29 13 Jan 22

Called guys last minute and they were super responsive. Normally they wouldn’t have been available but they had a cancellation. Got me right in to the schedule and sent some really professional guys over to move my things from storage into my new apartment. Most moving companies help rides the clock but Swift Move’s full time employees got it done FAST and when I got the bill it was actually much less than they had originally quoted me. What a great value I highly recommend them and I’ll definitely use them again!

J Ammon

This is the second move where we used Swift Moves, and they are the best movers EVER. (And we have moved a lot.) They wrap your furniture, they're efficient, they're SWIFT, they're good-natured, they're courteous, they don't pull any last-minute charges, they communicate, they're just great. Listen,we all know it's totally not fun to move. But if you have to move, do it with Swift Moves. You will be pleased.

If you’re in need of a excellent moving company in Tampa area this company will get the job done. After calling 4 different companies, I found Swift Moves. They were very knowledgeable and explained everything to me in detail. They have insurance which is great just to be safe. Keshawn and Reinaldo were great. They were on time. Listened to detail and delivered. They took care of my belongings. They made my move so easy which I couldn’t thank them enough. They did it in a timely manner as well. Superb customer service with excellent work ethic. Jeremey, I believe the owner, called and handled all of the paper work for me and made me feel confident in choosing this company. He even did a follow up call the next day just to make sure everything was okay. Talk about going above and beyond. Great jobs guys. Keep up the amazing work! Book them, you won’t be disappointed.

I used Swift Moves recently and my experience with them was very positive. I originally thought I would use a two man crew, but I am glad a three man crew was suggested and I went with that. The team was prompt, efficient, courteous, and provided good options for moving my belongings. They performed smooth breakdowns and set up. They placed the items where I needed and overall it was a good move. There were a couple of nicks and a small lamp casualty, but nothing of consequence that I would complain about overall. I am very realistic about moves in general and I would most certainly use them again and plan to. I selected them because of their reviews and I am glad that I did. You are most certainly in good hands with them and that is a rare thing to claim these days.

Recently used Swift Moves to unload 2 Pods and a 16 ft uhaul. They did a wonderful job and took extra care with delicate furniture. Will be using again.

Adam Guy

16:11 22 Nov 21

These guys were efficient and made our move so much easier and stress free. Before I could even finish paperwork, they already had handfuls of furniture out by the truck. They're affordably priced and don't hit you with surprise fees after the job is finished like some companies do. I got exactly what I paid for and couldn't be more satisfied. Money well spent!

I hired Swift Moves to move me out of my condo and into another. Because the close dates were not on the same day, I had to go into storage for about 9 days. Swift Moves did an excellent job moving my stuff into storage and then on a second move out of storage into my new place. Justin, Alex, Reinaldo, and Tim took care of me. I recommend.

Laurie

Had such a great experience. It was a small job but they did such an awesome job of accommodating all my requests. I will definitely be using them in the future and would highly recommend. Great job Swift Moves!!

This company was excellent. They had to deal with 3 flights of stairs to move us out of our townhome. And up stairs to get to our 2nd story apartment. Very professional, polite and extremely courteous. They arrived on a Sunday morning...We surely would reccomend them.

Deborah West

15:34 13 Oct 21

Fast and friendly! We had three guys come out who worked great together and had great, friendly attitudes. They wasted no time, and moved our two bedroom house in less than 3 hours. They were also careful with our furniture.

Nardia Freeman

19:43 06 Oct 21

During a VERY stressful time of moving to another state, I used this company to load my belongings on the moving truck. The three fellas that participated in that move Chris, Terrell, and Alex were kind, efficient, and professional. Their great customer service made me smile during such a stressful time. Great going Guys!

We just used Swift Moves to move from Largo to Ocala. The guys came, asked questions, and wasted no time in getting us up there. Can't be the price either. Glad we used them.

We just used these guys. We are unpacked and in our new home.Summary: Hire this company. Save yourself the time and energy. This company can do the ‘heavy lifting’ that stresses people in every move.Review: Beyond expectations. They took great care and handle of all of our items. They worked quickly and efficiently. Their rate was already below what their competitors were (and we had shopped around to about 15 different places), and they performed perfectly.I have already told my realtor friends about these guys. Hopefully I’m able to give them some extra business because more companies should have staff like this.Tim, Tim and Tyler. Ask for these pros by name. You will be more than happy with the results.No dings, no damage, no headaches, all quality. They packed a lot, worked with us on our “handle with care items” and then loaded it up. Lighting quick.Thank you and your team for such an stress relieving service.PS. I thought I00%, that I knew how much time the move would take. I was way off and I’m glad Justin and Jeremy corrected it. Take their recommendations, you’ll save more time and money.

I manage a small custom cabinet shop and when the last moving company I used closed without its doors without notice Swift Moves came and has been nothing but amazing for almost a year! With any where from 2-8 delivery a month they have always been punctual, Courteous, easy to work with and have always been available to move even on very short notices of a day or less! Would highly recommend using them!
