Riverview’s 1950s-70s brick ranches and Cape Cods aren’t like the wide-lot subdivisions going up in Brownstown or Woodhaven. Single-car garages, low ceilings, and side-entry doors that force a 90-degree turn with a king mattress or china cabinet - that’s the reality our Packing Services team faces on nearly every Riverview job. We’ve packed homes off Fort Street, along Sibley Road, and throughout the Colonial Heights neighborhood enough times to know which walls scuff, which doorjambs need padding, and which pieces simply won’t make the turn without disassembly.

Why Milestone Moving Co. Is Riverview’s Preferred Packing Services Company

We’ve been in continuous operation since 2006, and our 90-Day Done Right Promise applies to every box we pack in Riverview. That means if anything we wrapped, crated, or boxed isn’t right within 90 days of delivery, one call brings a crew or a check - not a claim form that disappears into a subcontractor’s voicemail.

Our binding written quote comes only after a real in-person or video survey of your Riverview home. The number doesn’t move on move day, on the ramp, or at delivery. We’ve heard the stories from Riverview customers who got one price on the phone and another when the truck was half-loaded. That doesn’t happen here. The price we quote is the price you pay.

Every crew member who packs your Riverview home is background-checked, uniformed, and on Milestone’s own payroll - never day labor sourced from a text message. One crew, start to finish. And when you call (855) 890-3455, a live person answers, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - before your move, during your move, and if something needs fixing after.

Our trucks are fully stocked and branded, garaged in the metros we serve, and our current offers include $250 off moves over $2,500, a free in-home or video estimate, and free wardrobe boxes on every full-service move.

Our Packing Services in Riverview

Full Packing Service

A full pack in Riverview means we handle every room, every drawer, every item that isn’t nailed down. For the typical 1,000-1,400 square foot brick ranch off Fort Street or in the Grange Road area, that’s usually a full day’s work for a three-person crew. We bring Uline boxes in every size, Milwaukee tool kits for disassembly, and enough furniture pads to wrap every piece that has to make that tight garage turn. Your quote includes the disassembly of beds, sectional sofas, and anything else that won’t fit through a 32-inch hallway or a single side-entry door.

Partial Packing

Maybe you’ve already boxed the books and linens but need help with the kitchen, the garage tools, or the master bedroom. Partial packing in Riverview is priced by the hour and the materials used, with the same binding quote guarantee. We often do partial packs for customers who are handling the easy rooms themselves but want our crew to tackle the fragile items, the awkward angles, or the pieces that need disassembly before they’ll clear a narrow Riverview hallway.

Unpacking Service

Our unpacking crew doesn’t just drop boxes in rooms. We reassemble beds, reposition furniture, and haul away all packing debris. In Riverview’s older homes, where low ceilings and tight corners make placement tricky, we work with you to find the right spot for every piece before we leave. The 90-Day Done Right Promise covers unpacking too - if we scratched a wall angling your dresser through a hallway, we’ll fix it.

Fragile & Art Packing

Riverview’s post-war homes hold a lot of inherited pieces: china cabinets from the 1960s, framed prints collected over decades, crystal that hasn’t moved since the original owner unpacked it. Our fragile and art packing service uses double-walled Uline boxes, custom foam inserts, and corner protectors sized to the piece. For items that won’t survive the tight turns and low ceilings typical of Riverview ranches, we build custom crates on-site.

Custom Crating

On a recent full-pack in the Colonial Heights neighborhood, our crew tackled a three-bedroom brick ranch where the only furniture path was a 90-degree turn through the side garage door. We custom-crated a 1960s china cabinet and disassembled a king sleigh bed in the hallway, using extra padding to protect the low ceiling and narrow doorjambs. That china cabinet made it to Wyandotte without a scratch. Custom crating in Riverview starts at $300 and runs to $1,600 for full-house jobs with multiple oversized or fragile pieces.

Packing Supplies & Boxes

If you’re packing yourself, we sell Uline boxes, tape, bubble wrap, and furniture pads by the bundle, delivered to your Riverview home before you start. We’ll also tell you honestly which pieces we think you should leave to us - the mirror that won’t survive a tight hallway turn, the dresser that’s too wide for your doorframe. Call (855) 890-3455 for supply pricing and delivery windows.

Trusted Equipment and Materials We Use in Riverview

We stock Uline corrugated boxes in standard and double-wall grades, Milwaukee cordless tool sets for fast disassembly and reassembly, and Ryder-branded moving blankets that we launder between jobs. For Riverview’s older homes with original hardwood floors that scratch easily, we carry Masonite floor runners and doorjamb protectors. We don’t show up hoping your local hardware store has what we need - our trucks leave fully loaded, because a crew standing in your driveway waiting for supplies is time you’re paying for.

Common Packing Problems We See in Riverview Homes

• Standard boxes used for items that should have been disassembled. A king sleigh bed or oversized sectional forced through a 90-degree garage turn in one piece will damage the furniture, the walls, or both. We disassemble before we wrap, and we reassemble at destination.
• Not enough padding for low ceilings and narrow hallways. Riverview’s 1950s-70s ranches have doorjambs as low as 78 inches and hallways barely 32 inches wide. Without proper furniture pads and corner protectors, every turn leaves a mark. We bring enough padding to wrap every piece twice if needed.
• Winter moves without planning for frost-heaved driveways. Southeast Michigan’s freeze-thaw cycles heave concrete unevenly, and brick front stoops in Riverview are slow to be treated after snow. Carrying heavy packed boxes across slick, uneven surfaces raises slip-and-damage risk above what movers face in more sheltered inland suburbs. We lay runners, wear traction footwear, and adjust crew size for winter Riverview jobs.
• Underestimating the garage-turn challenge. Many Riverview ranches have no usable front entry for furniture - the side garage door is it. That 90-degree turn off a narrow garage interior adds significant time and padding requirements on almost every full-house load. We survey for this specifically during our in-home estimate.
