Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Andover’s Preferred Packing Services Company
Andover’s housing stock is almost entirely large single-family homes built between 1990 and 2010, many of them two-story colonials or split-entry ramblers with walkout basements and three-car garages. That means full-house loads, not apartment hauls. We’ve packed enough of them to know that a 2,400-square-foot Andover colonial with a finished basement can easily hold 150-200 boxes if we’re packing the whole house. We quote accordingly.
Our crews know the local streets. We’ve packed homes near the Crosstown Boulevard corridor, off Hanson Boulevard, and throughout the ZIP 55304 area. We understand that long private driveways and unplowed cul-de-sacs in January add real time to every job. That’s why we build weather contingencies into our scheduling and our quotes.
The quote we give you after our in-home or video survey is binding. It doesn’t change on packing day. Our Move-Right Guarantee puts that in writing. And our 90-Day Done Right Promise means if anything we packed shows up damaged, one call brings a crew or a check, not a claim form that disappears into a subcontractor’s voicemail.
A live person answers our phones 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Before your move, during your move, and after.
Our Packing Services in Andover
Full Packing Service
Our full packing service handles every room, every drawer, every cabinet. In Andover, this typically means tackling the large kitchens common in 1990s-2010s builds, home offices, finished basements, and those three-car garages filled with recreational equipment. A full pack for a typical Andover colonial runs $300-$1,600 depending on volume. We bring all materials, including free wardrobe boxes on every full-service move. Our Packing Services team labels every box by room and priority so unpacking follows logic, not chaos.
Partial Packing
Some Andover customers want us to handle just the kitchen and breakables while they pack clothes and books themselves. Others need the garage sorted but prefer to manage bedrooms. We price partial packing by the room or by the hour after survey, always within that same $300-$1,600 range. You choose the scope. We write it down. The number doesn’t move.
Unpacking Service
Our unpacking crews don’t just drop boxes in rooms. We break down materials as we go, place items where you specify, and haul away all packing debris. For Andover’s inbound families relocating from Coon Rapids or Brooklyn Park, this means settling into that newer, larger home faster. Unpacking service runs $300-$1,600 depending on box count and whether we’re also handling debris removal from a full-house load.
Fragile & Art Packing
Andover’s newer homes often feature open-concept living with built-in shelving for display pieces. We pack china cabinets, artwork, electronics, and specialty items with double-wall boxes, foam-in-place cushioning, and custom-built crates when needed. Full-value protection applies to everything we pack. Fragile and art packing falls within our standard $300-$1,600 range, with custom crating quoted separately based on dimensions.
Custom Crating
Oversized mirrors, marble tops, and high-value art pieces get measured on-site and built to fit. Our crews carry Milwaukee tools and Uline materials on every truck. Custom crating in Andover runs $300-$1,600 depending on piece count and complexity.
Packing Supplies & Boxes
We sell professional-grade supplies direct to Andover customers who want to pack themselves, including dish barrels, wardrobe boxes, tape, and paper. Everything we use on our own jobs is available for purchase. We stock Uline and Milwaukee products for durability.
Trusted Brands We Use in Andover
Our trucks carry Uline corrugated boxes in multiple wall strengths, Milwaukee packing tools and fasteners, and Ryder-maintained vehicles for reliable delivery. We don’t show up hoping the hardware store has what we need. For Andover’s full-house packs, we pre-load enough inventory to handle 200+ boxes without a resupply run. That matters when your crew is staged on Crosstown Boulevard relaying loads because the cul-de-sac won’t take a 26-footer.
Common Packing Problems We See in Andover Homes
- Underestimating carry length from street to door. Andover’s dead-end cul-de-sacs often force crews to park on the main road and hand-carry 100+ feet. We build this into our time estimates and bring enough crew members so no one takes shortcuts that damage your goods.
- Improper boxes for walkout basement stair carries. Split-entry Andover homes have long, narrow basement staircases. Standard boxes tear or spill when overloaded. We use double-wall construction and proper weight limits for every basement-bound box.
- Salt and moisture ruining hardwood floors and box bottoms. January through March in Andover means sub-zero temps and snow accumulation. We lay runners before we carry, use waterproof packing for garage items, and never let wet boots touch your floors.
- Three-car garage volume surprises. Andover’s recreational culture means garages hold snowmobiles, ATVs, boats, and gear. We survey garage contents during our estimate so we don’t run short on materials or truck space.

FAQs - Packing Services in Andover
Yes. We plan for relay staging on nearly every Andover job, parking our 26-foot truck on the main road and using a smaller box van for driveway access. Last March, we handled a full-packing job on a split-entry home in the cul-de-sacs near Crosstown Boulevard. Our crew staged the large truck on the boulevard and relayed boxes with a smaller van to the walkout basement entrance, protecting the hardwood from salt and moisture with runners. We packed the entire three-car garage’s ATV and snowmobile gear, and the family’s fragile china in double-wall boxes with custom crating for the long haul to their new Andover rambler. Call (855) 890-3455 and we’ll survey your specific turnaround before quoting.
We lay protective runners before carrying a single box, require boot covers or shoe removal, and use waterproof packing for items stored in garages or basements. Andover’s hard freeze season means salt and moisture get tracked in on every winter job. We don’t let wet boots touch your floors, and we replace runners if they become saturated. Call (855) 890-3455 to discuss winter scheduling.
Yes. We regularly pack Andover garages containing snowmobiles, ATVs, boats, and associated gear. We drain fluids where required, use waterproof and reinforced containers, and build custom crating for irregular shapes. This inventory is surveyed during your free estimate so we bring adequate materials and truck space. Call (855) 890-3455 to schedule.
We use double-wall boxes with strict weight limits, proper lifting straps, and enough crew members to avoid dragging or dropping on long stair carries. Andover’s split-entry and walkout-basement designs create extended vertical carries that standard packing approaches don’t account for. We measure stair width during survey and size boxes accordingly. Call (855) 890-3455 for a free in-home assessment.
Same-day packing is available depending on crew scheduling, though we recommend 24-48 hours notice for full-house jobs to ensure proper materials and staffing. For true emergencies, call (855) 890-3455. Our live dispatch operates 24/7 and will tell you honestly what we can commit to, not sell you a promise we can’t keep.
