Local Movers in Gilbert, AZ

Always Professional Moving has run local household moves out of Gilbert since 2012 — owner Cody Prescott grew up a few blocks off downtown and still works the tough summer and stair jobs himself.

Owner-run, East Valley born

Call and you get Cody or one of his movers on the line, not a call center. Point out where the tight turns and heavy rooms are, and the day gets planned out well before the truck pulls up.

A quote in writing, not a guess

Your figure comes from a room-by-room walkthrough, with pads, dollies, shrink-wrap and wardrobe boxes already folded in — nothing sprung on you at the curb.

Pack it all or only the breakables

Dish barrels swallow the kitchen, wardrobe cartons take the closet straight off the rod, and a built-to-size crate shields every mirror, TV and pane of glass for the ride.

One crew for every kind of address

The chief who sizes up your home runs the truck and walks the empty place with you at the end — from Sun Lakes single-stories to Tempe high-rise walk-ups, the same team stays with your things.

Crossing town into a new build in Power Ranch, downsizing to a Sun Lakes patio home, or hauling a whole house from Val Vista Lakes out to Queen Creek — our Gilbert crews carry it start to finish. The pricing is your call — leave the meter running by the hour, or have us pin down a flat figure as soon as we’ve counted the rooms.

What a local move runs

  • Two movers and a truck: $145 an hour
  • Three movers and a truck: $199 an hour
  • One-hour minimum; pads, dollies, shrink-wrap and wardrobe boxes included
  • Flat rates: studio $390–$620, two-bedroom $700–$1,140, three-bedroom $1,200–$1,900

We cover Maricopa and Pinal counties — Chandler, Mesa, Tempe, Queen Creek, San Tan Valley and out to Apache Junction. Through the summer we book early-morning starts so the heavy carrying is behind us before the desert heat peaks.

Included as Standard

Common Questions, Answered

How do you keep a summer move from turning into a heat-exhaustion day?
We start at daybreak from June through September, keep cold water on the truck, and pace the carries so the crew and your furniture both stay out of the worst afternoon sun. A 6 a.m. Gilbert start usually beats the heat entirely.
Do you move out to the newer San Tan Valley and Queen Creek subdivisions?
Regularly. We run all over Pinal County — the new builds off Ironwood, the Schnepf Farms side of Queen Creek, San Tan Valley — and price it as a local job with the drive time laid out in your estimate.
Can you give a flat price instead of an hourly rate?
Yes. Tell us the room count and the access and we'll lock a flat figure — a studio runs $390 to $620, a three-bedroom $1,200 to $1,900 — so there's no clock to watch on move day.
Do you handle 55+ communities like Sun Lakes with gate and quiet-hour rules?
Often. We clear the gate and any HOA move rules with the community ahead of time and can schedule around posted quiet hours, so nobody earns a complaint on move day.
Are you an actual Gilbert moving company or a lead-matching service?
A real one. Always Professional Moving is a fully licensed and insured, owner-run mover based on North Gilbert Road — our own trucks, our own uniformed crews, and your move is never brokered out to another carrier.

How Your Move Day Unfolds

  1. 1

    Same-day estimate, in writing

    On our end: Give us the room count, whether it’s stairs or a flat walk-out, and where the truck can park — a written number comes back to you, usually before the day is out.

    Where you help: Keep your move-out and move-in dates handy, plus any gate or building codes; that’s what turns a rough range into a firm figure.

  2. 2

    We lock the date and clear access

    On our end: Truck parking, gate codes and elevator holds get arranged with your building or HOA ahead of time, so the crew pulls up at the door instead of hauling boxes across a lot.

    Where you help: Confirm when you can be out of the old place and into the new one, then tell us which of those two dates has the least give.

  3. 3

    Pad, wrap, label, load

    On our end: Furniture disappears under blankets, sofas get sealed in stretch wrap, and every bolt from a bed or table rides in a labeled bag taped to its own piece.

    Where you help: Tag each box with the room it’s bound for, and keep documents, keys and small valuables with you rather than on the truck.

  4. 4

    Drive, carry in, walk it back

    On our end: The movers who loaded your home are the ones who set it back down — furniture placed where you point, beds rebuilt, and all the spent wrap and tape hauled off before we leave.

    Where you help: Do a final walk with the chief before the truck rolls, while anything that needs a fix is still an easy fix.
