Moving Labor Questions, Answered.
Here’s what to expect from our two-person loading and unloading service.
Does TK Movers provide the truck?
No. You provide the rental truck or appropriate moving vehicle and its driver. TK Movers provides loading and unloading labor.
How many movers are included?
Every standard booking includes exactly two professional movers.
What is your hourly rate?
$199 per hour for the entire two-person crew. The rate is for both movers together.
Is there a minimum?
Yes. The minimum billable time is 2 hours, for a minimum total of $398.
Is the deposit an additional charge?
No. Your $150 booking deposit is credited toward the final service total. A 2-hour job has an estimated $248 remaining after the deposit.
What happens if my move takes longer?
Final billing uses documented actual service time, with a 2-hour minimum. Additional time is rounded up to the next 15-minute increment at $49.75 per increment. Your estimated hours are a planning estimate, not a fixed-price guarantee.
Can you load and unload at different locations?
Yes, when both locations are in our service area. Provide each full address, city, state and ZIP. Travel between the two locations counts toward billable job time. Our initial commute to your first location does not. You remain responsible for driving your vehicle.
Can I change my booking?
You can request a change, subject to availability and the cancellation and rescheduling policy accepted when you booked. Contact us with your booking ID.
Can you move unusually heavy items?
Tell us about unusually heavy, oversized or difficult items, and any unsafe or restricted access, before booking. These requests need manual review; some items or jobs may not be accepted.
What should be ready on moving day?
Have your belongings packed and ready, a suitable truck or container, a legal parking space and clear access. Let us know about stairs, elevators and parking restrictions in advance. Packing and truck driving are not included.
Can I book without making an account?
Yes. Customers do not need an account. When online booking is open, choose an available time, review the terms and pay the deposit through secure Stripe checkout.
When is the remaining balance charged?
The remaining balance is requested by secure invoice only after job completion. Actual documented duration determines the total; the deposit and a validated welcome discount are credited once. No advance balance charge is authorized.
Will you automatically charge more if the move takes longer?
No. After service, we compare the final total with all settled payments net of refunds. Any additional amount is sent by secure invoice; any overpayment is refunded.
How far ahead should I book?
Online appointments require at least 25 hours’ notice. Our service hours are Monday–Saturday, 7:30 a.m.–8:30 p.m., America/Chicago; Sundays are closed. Call us to discuss a shorter-notice request. An inquiry does not reserve an appointment.
When is my booking confirmed?
A booking is confirmed only after the server verifies a successful deposit payment. Opening a payment return page alone does not confirm a booking.
