Trusted Vail Movers

Most homes in Vail were constructed within the last 15 to 20 years. This is significant because it fundamentally alters how the moving process functions.

Homes built recently typically feature wider hallways, bigger garage entrances, and open floor plans. One might think those characteristics make moving a piece of cake. Sometimes they do, but other times these modern-day homes cause major headaches. We see that all the time working in the streets that run along Old Spanish Trail and down through the Colossal Cave Road area of Vail.

In newer neighborhoods throughout Vail, the main things that tend to cause issues are:

• Two-story dwellings that have tight turns at the top of the stairs, which are typically found in master-planned developments located to the south of I-10
• Large, oversized sectional couches and King-size bedroom sets that will easily fit in the new bedrooms, but they may be unable to fit through the front door or down any hallway or stairway
• Many of the newer homes in Vail have tile or luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout the whole house, which is easily scratched if you don't put furniture pads on the bottom of every piece of furniture you move
• Few of Vail's newer houses have any distance between the front door and the garage because most of these Vail homes have desert landscapes with cactus and rocks immediately lining the entryways

We can handle any and all of these scenarios. We provide free estimates so we can see the home and understand the specifics of the move. No guesswork, no surprises on move day.

Often we will move in the following scenario. A new family moves to Vail several years ago, purchasing one of the many newer homes in the community. The family now has two children. They are moving somewhere in Vail or up the road in Marana. The house is packed full of heavy nursery furniture, a large sectional in the living room, and even a treadmill. It is also July. The driveway is dangerously hot. We move in, wrap all the furniture, protect the new tile flooring with carpet runners, and get it done in a single day. Just one crew and one truck, start to finish. That's our No Hassle Promise.

The flat rate estimate we provide you is your total cost of moving. Period. No trip charge to come out to your home in Vail. No hidden fuel surcharges because you're southeast of Tucson. The estimate number we provide is the final price you pay.

And many of Vail's homes are new enough to have all of the original appliances. These include things like a large side-by-side refrigerator, front-load washer and dryer sets, and built-in microwave ovens. We also specialize in both appliance moving and heavy item moving, so we can help with these items when they are part of the move. There is no need to hire someone else to handle these special items.

Another frequent thing we will run into at the homes in Vail, is many families will have fitness equipment stored in the garage.

Pelotons, squat racks, weight benches. We move it all. But what we think matters most is that you're calling a local, family-owned company. A real mover who knows what they're talking about will answer your phone when you call. It's not a call center. We don't subcontract to some random crew that no one knows. We have 8 years of experience, combined with 20 plus years as movers and our strong five-star rating on Google. We also offer community discounts for military families, veterans, first responders, teachers and seniors. There are a lot of military-connected homes in Vail because we're so close to Davis-Monthan, so be sure to ask about our discounts.

Vail moves can be tricky because summer is our busy season. The heat is brutal, so our crews have developed great work-arounds: We start early, stay well hydrated and keep the sun off of your things while they're being loaded. If you need an after-hours move because you want to avoid the worst of the summer afternoon heat, no problem, when our schedule allows.

From Vail to No Hassle Movers. Most of our Vail clients don't have to come to us, we go to them. Our crews launch from our office at 3430 E Sunrise Dr in Tucson, taking I-10 east toward the Houghton Road exit. We either go south on Old Spanish Trail, Colossal Cave Road to the Vail community. Depending on traffic at the Rita Ranch I-10 interchange, this is a 35 to 45 minute drive door to door. Typically, our Vail move crews follow these directions:

• Head east on Sunrise to Kolb Road. Then south to I-10 east.
• Head east on I-10. You'll pass the Houghton Road exit. Go towards exit 279, Wentworth Road or exit 281, Colossal Cave Road exit.
• Head south toward Vail. We'll branch off towards Rancho Del Lago, La Estancia or the neighborhood around Mary Ann Cleveland Way.
• If you are on Colossal Cave closer to Empire High School or Cienega Creek, we'll drive south on Colossal Cave past the Vail Post Office.

These are all major roads that well. I-10 is on the driving schedule for all of our Vail move crews. We're up in Vail all the time. We also know that the afternoon heat causes significant delays for Tucson to Vail traffic around the Houghton Road interchange (it is even a known phenomenon), so we allow for that extra time when we schedule Vail moves. But if you need to come to our Tucson office for an in-person estimate, you're always welcome. Head north on Houghton to I-10 west, take the Kolb exit, then turn right onto Sunrise Drive East to our plaza, situated near La Encantada. The entire drive only takes about 30 minutes, depending on traffic. Ample parking is available at the door of the suite.

Also, get your estimate online for free. Or call; real humans will pick up who have done plenty of moving and will walk you through the details on a Vail home move. This is not a call center; this is not someone reciting a script. We can answer your questions about the small garage entrances of Del Lago, how to squeeze a couch down narrow hallways in Civano-style homes, and whether that gun safe requires its own trip.

One feature that Vail families say they appreciate is our flat-rate, guaranteed price. What is quoted is what the customer pays on moving day. No unexpected charges or add-ons for stairs or walking long distances (and everyone has seen some of the large desert lots off Camino Loma Alta where the driveway alone is 200 feet long). We take all this into account when giving an initial estimate. So, whether it's a single-story home on the Mesquite Elementary neighborhood or a two-story in the Empirita foothills, the right crew shows up on time with all the necessary materials to move it all in one day. We are a locally-owned family business, insured, with 20 plus years of combined moving experience and we've been working across Southern Arizona for eight years. Get your Vail move scheduled today; call (928) 832-6683 to get your free estimate. We answer on the first ring, we don't charge a trip fee, and we are available for evening appointments when our schedule allows if the work doesn't get done during daytime hours. We have a no-hassle promise backed by our five-star rating on Google.

The residents and families along Old Spanish Trail, and the streets off Colossal Cave, don't move in the same way as those in Central Tucson. The homes in Vail are separated; the drive is longer; and the roads meander around terrain in a way that big national chains often don't understand. This is why local is so important in this part of town. In addition, the majority of homes near Colossal Cave are single family dwellings with a 2-car garage, an open floor plan, and big furniture. This means the family is going to be moving furniture that is larger than average, including huge sofas, large dining room sets, and large patio sets for Arizona outdoor living. A crew that has never tackled moving a residence with gravel driveways in front of Pistol Hill Road or in tight neighborhoods near the end of the cul-de-sac at the north end of Pistol Hill Road is going to have a hard time before you ever get loaded. We get out to the Colossal Cave area often. What we see moving families the most deal with is this:

• Families growing out of smaller starter homes near the trailhead at Rincon Vista and moving larger residences further into Vail.
• Families from the military installations in and around that area moving to new homes in the corridor along Old Vail Road.
• Moving retirees looking to downsize from a four-bedroom house but needing assistance in moving large, bulky pieces of furniture and appliances.
• Families moving from the new homes south of Mary Ann Cleveland Way into their first home.

One thing that comes up with almost every family moving to or from the Colossal Cave area in southern Arizona is the time of day that the move takes place in the summertime. July and August temperatures are different in southern Arizona when you're trying to cart a safe down a driveway or down a set of stairs that have no shade. Our crews know how to work with that, how to protect your belongings, and how to stay hydrated when moving furniture in the mid-day heat, and we already know which houses face west and which ones give us a shaded loading zone in the morning.

And what you'll really love is this: Whatever price I give you when you call is the price that you'll pay when we're done. Guaranteed flat-rate pricing. There is no trip fee. We are not going to say, "You live too far out east!" Colossal Cave area residents don't need to pay any more just for being outside of city limits.

Families moving locally in this area generally get one crew, one truck, one day. Most moves will finish in one day. When you call, you get a real person to talk to. And they have real moving experience. That's our No Hassle Guarantee, after all; it's been in place for 8 years and it shows in our five-star rating on Google!

Also, we do smaller moves, too. Furniture moves for that single-room makeover. Loading and unloading your PODS container that you might have parked in the driveway. Moving furniture to and from a storage unit when you're moving after finishing up a home remodel. These jobs aren't insignificant to us! We've earned trust in neighborhoods off Colossal Cave Road one family at a time.

For all the military families in the Colossal Cave area, we offer discounts for military families, veterans, first responders, teachers, seniors, and students! And that's a lot of people in the Colossal Cave area who are eligible for that discount! Don't be shy; ask for the discount when you call!
