We’ve packed homes in the Old Town grid near Public Road, the newer developments off Baseline Road, and the hillside properties above Highway 7. Each neighborhood presents different challenges, from tight Victorian staircases to long switchback driveways where a 26-foot truck won’t fit. We scout first. Then we pack.

Our crews are background-checked, uniformed, and on our own payroll. Not day labor sourced from a text message. The crew that packs your Lafayette home is the same crew that loads it, with training standards set at our headquarters.

The price we quote is the price you pay. We do a real in-person or video survey of your Lafayette home, then put the number in writing. It does not rise on move day, on the ramp, or at delivery. That’s our Move-Right Guarantee.
Our Packing Services in Lafayette
Full Packing Service
A full packing service in Lafayette runs $300-$1,600 and covers every room, every drawer, every item. We bring the boxes, the paper, the tape, and the crew. In Lafayette’s hillside neighborhoods like Indian Peaks or the areas above Arapahoe Road, this service is essential. Driveways often exceed a 10% grade and narrow to under 10 feet, forcing our packing crews to stage materials at the street and hand-carry boxes up steep slopes. That reality turns a simple packing job into a multi-hour logistical chore unique to this Boulder County city. We build that time into the quote from the start.
We recently managed a full packing service for a home on a switchback driveway near Indian Peaks, where the homeowner’s collection of original art and a grand piano required custom crating. Our team pre-staged heavy-duty boxes and padding at the street, then hand-carried everything up the grade to protect the custom wood flooring. A move that took nearly twice as long as a comparable flat-lot job in Broomfield.
Partial Packing
Partial packing lets you handle the easy rooms while we tackle the kitchen, the garage, or whatever overwhelms you. In Lafayette’s 1950s ranch homes near Waneka Lake, partial packing often means the basement and the kitchen. Those older homes have tight galley kitchens with original cabinets that don’t fit modern box dimensions. We know the workarounds. In newer construction off South Boulder Road, partial might mean the home office with its electronics nest. You choose the rooms. We bring the materials and the method.
Unpacking Service
Our unpacking service puts your Lafayette home back together on the other end. We break down boxes, dispose of packing materials, and place items where you want them. For new Lafayette residents arriving from out of state, this service gets you functional fast. You won’t be living out of Uline boxes for three weeks. We unpack kitchens first, then bedrooms, then common areas. The debris leaves with us.
Fragile & Art Packing
Fragile and art packing in Lafayette runs $500-$1,600 and covers the items that can’t be replaced. Original paintings, sculpture, antiques, wine collections. Lafayette’s housing stock includes high-value homes with serious art, and we pack accordingly. Acid-free paper, custom-sized boxes, double-walled construction for the long carry up a hillside driveway. Full-value protection on everything we handle. We don’t guess at protection levels. We measure, we pad, we document.
Custom Crating
Custom crating in Lafayette runs $500-$1,600 for items that standard boxes can’t protect. Marble tabletops, chandeliers, oversized mirrors, antique furniture. We build the crate to the item, not the other way around. For Lafayette’s hillside estates with original art and grand pianos, custom crating isn’t an upsell. It’s the only safe option when the carry involves uneven terrain and a 200-foot walk to the truck.
Trusted Brands We Use in Lafayette
We stock professional-grade materials from Uline and Milwaukee for every Lafayette job. Uline’s heavy-duty wardrobe boxes come free on every full-service move. Milwaukee tape guns and box cutters mean our crews work faster and cleaner than with Budget Truck Rental-grade supplies. We don’t run to the hardware store mid-job. Our trucks arrive fully stocked because Lafayette’s hillside locations don’t allow for quick supply runs. The right materials, in the right quantity, from the first box.
Common Packing Problems We See in Lafayette Homes
- Underestimating the carry time. Lafayette’s hillside neighborhoods feature driveways that standard moving trucks can’t access. Out-of-area companies often quote a flat packing rate, then add hours when they discover the hand-carry requirement. We scout first. The quote reflects the real job.
- Wrong boxes for the terrain. Standard moving boxes can’t withstand the extra jostling of being carried over uneven terrain, up slopes, or across gravel driveways. We use heavier-gauge Uline boxes and double-wall construction for Lafayette hillside jobs.
- Assuming truck access. A surprising number of Lafayette addresses have driveways under 10 feet wide or grades steep enough to high-center a large truck. We verify access before booking and plan shuttle operations when needed. Double-handling packed goods adds time, labor, and risk. We build it into the plan from day one.
- Ignoring summer heat. Lafayette’s summer highs regularly hit 95-105°F, far hotter than Boulder proper. Heat degrades tape adhesive and warps certain packing materials. We schedule hillside packing jobs for early morning hours and use heat-resistant sealing methods during peak summer months.
