How it works
BMC General Info on Billing
We calculate the total cost of your move based on fuel cost, load size, and the time from when we start loading until we finish unloading at your destination. We do not charge for the time it takes us to travel to your location or to return to our base after the job is done.
As a courtesy, we provide free disassembly and reassembly of furniture.
Additionally, we supply the following free of charge for loading, unloading, and transportation purposes only:
- One free TV box
- Mattress bags
- Furniture padding
- Tools and equipment
For packing materials headed to storage and non-reusable items like bubble wrap and shrink wrap, there is a fee. Bubble wrap is used to protect glass items and TVs (60” or larger), while shrink wrap and padding secure drawers and protect furniture. By our standard, we place protective blankets on furniture items once they’re in the vehicle. For added protection, some clients prefer us to wrap their furniture before it leaves their home to prevent nicks and scratches and avoid wall damage. This can take extra time and may incur an additional charge for the materials used to hold the padding in place.
Providing photos can help us give you the most accurate estimate.

Miranda Tucker2025-07-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This is the second time I have used Edward and his team. Both times have been a great success. They are always prompt, professional and do a fantastic job. Pricing is very fair. I would recommend them to anyone moving in the area. sabrina moore2025-07-04Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow…. The moving is done. They were polite and had a good quiet vibe. All were focused and the job was done neat, orderly and organized. Patricia Jackson2025-06-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had the pleasure of hiring Boss Moving Company to move me out of state . I’ve moved more times than I can remember. Not one moving company I’ve used in the past can compare to Boss Moving Company. ABSOLUTELY THE BEST AT ORGANIZATION, PROTECTING MY GOODS AND AN ABSOLUTE PLEASURE TO WORK WITH, THE ENTIRE TEAM. I highly recommend this moving company over many other companies. NOT ONE ITEM OF MINE WAS DAMAGED NOR ONE BOX DENTED. It was truly a pleasure to work with Edward and his staff. Respectfully, Patricia Jackson Kenrya Rankin2025-06-15Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family moved after eight years in the same home, so you can imagine how much we’d accumulated in that time. Edward and his team were up to the challenge of moving us to our next home, despite the 90-plus degree heat, several sets of stairs, and so many boxes. They never gave up, and anytime I asked them to move something to a specific spot, they did it with a smile. If you need a mover, don’t hesitate to hire these pros. Leah Estes2025-06-09Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Have had multiple great experiences moving with them! Daniel Wanjira2025-06-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Went above and beyond Madison Blagrove2025-05-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. They arrived 45 minutes late without any apology or accommodation offered, leaving only 15 minutes for them to use the freight elevator and other amenities I reserved for their convenience. They arrived with a truck too small to accommodate the size of the move (740sqft 1b/b). They arrived with no boxes, tape, bubble wrap, etc. I can only assume the lack of required moving supplies slowed them down. All of this ended up in them taking longer than the 3 hours they quoted me. This is despite me using the 45 minutes they arrived late to move almost all the boxes and other items in my apartment I could carry down to the loading dock for them. They did not end up finishing the job. They left me with multiple items in the apartment, including the heaviest box I packed, an entire piece of furniture, and every piece of art I set aside. I was told to "take accountability" for underestimating the number of boxes I guessed I'd have (they asked me this question 2 months in advance), implying that this was the sole reason for their failure to finish. They asked me to pay full-price for an overtime fee. I told them to leave and I finished the job myself. I've hired professional movers for 5 moves, from across the country to across town, and this is the worst experience I've had by leaps and bounds. Lisa Lane2025-03-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Excellent and Highly Recommended! Edward is highly skilled. I am still in awe of how meticulous he packed this 15 foot truck with all of our things. He made a way out of no way. He arrived on time and ready to rock. If you ever need a reference lmk...you have a lifetime customer over here. Satisfied Customer Lisa Lisa Lane Rahat2025-02-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Professional guys, work fast and hard. Funny conversation too. Great competitive rate, and good communicators.
