Flexible Transit Options from Ann Arbor

Choose the option that fits your timeline and budget. Either way, your delivery window is part of your written estimate:

Dedicated Truck

A truck reserved for your belongings travels directly from Ann Arbor to your new address. Dedicated service suits full households and moves that need a tight delivery window.

Consolidated Truck

Your belongings share truck space with other shipments headed the same direction. A lower-cost option for smaller moves and student apartments when you can accept a wider delivery window.

What’s Included in Every Ann Arbor Long-Distance Move

Every Ann Arbor long-distance move starts with the same clear standard, laid out in your written estimate before moving day so there is nothing to decode later. A dedicated move coordinator reviews your belongings by video or in person, confirms building access at both ends, and answers questions from booking through delivery.

Ann Arbor Long-Distance Moving FAQs

Most long-distance moves from Ann Arbor fall between $2,000 and $9,000, depending on the size of your home, the distance, property access at both ends, and any packing, storage, or crating you book. Your written binding estimate fixes the price for the items and services listed in your agreement, so the number you approve is the number you pay.
Moves to Chicago, Ohio, or the East Coast often arrive within 1 to 3 days of pickup, while cross-country moves to Texas, Colorado, or the West Coast typically take 5 to 10 days. A dedicated truck delivers at the fast end of each window; a consolidated truck has a wider one. We confirm your delivery timing in writing before you book.
Yes. Late August and early September are the busiest weeks in Ann Arbor, when leases turn over across the city and campus housing fills quickly. Book early for an August move-out or a fall move-in, and share your lease dates and any building rules so we can plan the pickup around them. Spring graduation moves and summer faculty relocations work the same way.
Yes. Inbound moves to Ann Arbor are booked the same way, with pickup at your current address in any state and delivery timed to your move-in date. Tell us about the new building’s move-in hours, elevator reservations, or parking limits downtown, and if you are arriving in winter, let us know who will clear the driveway before the truck pulls up.
Every interstate move includes Released Value protection, which limits liability to $0.60 per pound per item at no extra charge. Full Value Protection is the more comprehensive option, covering repair, replacement, or settlement of damaged items for an additional cost. Review both before signing and point out any high-value pieces so the right choice is documented before pickup.

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

  • •Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
  • •Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
  • •Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

  • ✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
  • ✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.
