“Wilson and team at Gorilla Haulers did an amazing job moving us from DC to North Carolina. They had us out of our apartment in 4 hours and fully moved into our house multiple states away the next day by 2 pm. All our stuff made it safely and securely, the team was incredibly efficient, professional and polite for a very reasonable price.”

Review the two ends of your move
| Location | Access to review |
|---|---|
| Rhode Island pickup | A short drive within Rhode Island can still be the starting point of a much longer interstate move. Share the destination ZIP code as well as pickup details, including upper-floor furniture and any separate storage location. |
| North Carolina delivery | Confirm when you can receive belongings at your North Carolina home. If you are coordinating a closing or waiting for keys, share that uncertainty before pickup. For an apartment, ask about the loading entrance and elevator availability. |
