Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Olympia Heights’s Preferred Packing Services Company
Olympia Heights isn’t a generic suburb. It’s a predominantly Cuban-American community where moves often mean consolidating elderly parents into an adult child’s home, or redistributing a family estate among relatives. That means religious altars, vintage mahogany, and three generations’ worth of belongings packed into homes with doorways built narrower than modern standards. We’ve handled these jobs for over 20 years.
Our reputation here rests on showing up in uniform with our own payroll crews, never day labor sourced from a text message. The 90-Day Done Right Promise means if anything we packed isn’t right after delivery, one call brings a crew or a check. No claim forms that disappear. No subcontractors.
Response time to Olympia Heights is same-day or next-day for most packing jobs, with live phone support 24/7 before, during, and after your move. We know which blocks off Calle Ocho require shuttle staging on SW 72nd Avenue, and we scout them in advance so your neighbors aren’t blocked and you don’t get fined.
Our Packing Services in Olympia Heights
Full Packing Service
A full pack in Olympia Heights means we handle everything from the kitchen cabinets to the closet shelves, but it also means planning for homes where the rear addition was built without permits and the doorway to the master bedroom is two inches narrower than standard. We bring Uline boxes in multiple sizes, custom-cut padding for irregular angles, and enough crew to finish before the afternoon storm rolls in. The price we quote is the price you pay - binding after our walkthrough, with no increase on packing day.
Partial Packing
Many Olympia Heights customers pack the easy rooms themselves and hire us for the heavy, fragile, or time-consuming areas: kitchens, china cabinets, home offices with electronics. We’ll pack whatever portion you need, still with full-value protection on everything we handle. Partial packing typically runs toward the lower end of our $300-$1,600 range depending on room count.
Unpacking Service
Unpacking after a multigenerational consolidation is different from a standard move. You’re merging two households into one, often with duplicate items and emotionally significant pieces that need placement, not just box-emptying. Our crews unpack, remove debris, and arrange furniture where you want it. We don’t leave until the boxes are gone and the altars are positioned where they belong.
Fragile & Art Packing
Religious shrines, Santería altars, vintage crystal, and framed family portraits from Havana - we’ve packed all of it in Olympia Heights. We use acid-free paper, custom-built cardboard corners, and double-walled boxes for high-value pieces. Everything we pack carries full-value protection, not released-value coverage that pays pennies on the pound.
Custom Crating
This is where Olympia Heights’s housing stock demands real expertise. That vintage mahogany dining set won’t fit through a 1950s ranch doorway in one piece. We measure on-site, build crates in our workshop or on-site with Milwaukee tools, and pad every surface for the humidity. Custom crating runs $300-$1,600 depending on piece count and complexity.
Packing Supplies & Boxes
We stock Uline corrugated boxes, dish packs, wardrobe cartons, and mirror boxes at our Miami garage, ready for Olympia Heights delivery. Free wardrobe boxes come with every full-service move. If you’re self-packing, we’ll sell you professional-grade materials at cost - no retail markup.
Common Packing Problems We See in Olympia Heights Homes
- Under-packing for humidity. Skipping plastic-wrap on electronics and upholstery leads to mildew damage during the 3 p.m. summer thunderstorms that hit without warning. We plastic-wrap everything vulnerable before it leaves the house.
- Ignoring narrow doorways. Standard boxes don’t fit 1950s ranches. Crews who don’t pre-measure end up damaging doorframes or the furniture itself. We measure every access point during our walkthrough.
- Quoting sight-unseen. Informal additions and owner-modified layouts cause surprise access issues that a walkthrough catches in ten minutes. We never quote packing jobs without seeing the home first.
- Not staging around parking. Blocking the narrow lane off Calle Ocho brings fines and neighbor complaints. We scout streets in advance and stage on commercial arterials when needed, shuttling with our own van.

FAQs - Packing Services in Olympia Heights
We pack religious altars in place when possible, building custom crates around them with acid-free materials and marking every piece for reassembly. For a recent job off SW 8th Street, we crated a multigenerational family’s Santería altar where it stood, padded each element for humidity, and shuttled it via van to avoid blocking their narrow lane. Call (855) 890-3455 to schedule a walkthrough for your altar or shrine.
Because most 33165 homes have informal rear additions, owner-modified layouts, and doorways narrower than modern standards that make sight-unseen quotes unreliable. We measure every access point and identify custom crating needs during our free survey so the binding number we write down is the number you pay. Call (855) 890-3455 to book yours.
Yes, but it requires custom crating for narrow doorways and heavy padding for humidity protection during transport. We blanket-wrap each piece, build cardboard or wood crating as needed, and plastic-wrap against South Florida’s moisture. Everything we handle carries full-value protection. Call (855) 890-3455 for an estimate on your set.
We start at dawn to beat the heat index that exceeds 105°F and finish before the near-daily 3 p.m. storms. All electronics, upholstery, and wood pieces get plastic-wrapped before leaving the house. During hurricane season (June-November), we build flexibility into scheduling for last-minute demand spikes and weather delays. Call (855) 890-3455 to discuss timing for your pack date.
We scout the block in advance and stage loads on nearby commercial arterials like SW 72nd Avenue or Bird Road, then shuttle items with our own van. This avoids fines, neighbor complaints, and the damage that comes from forcing a 26-foot truck where it doesn’t fit. We factor shuttle time into your binding quote so there’s no surprise charge. Call (855) 890-3455 and we’ll check your street during the estimate.
