Load, Move, and Stay Informed
On moving day, our crew carefully loads and secures your belongings. They'll transport your items to your destination, and you'll receive updates along the route so you're never left guessing.
Unload, Settle In, and Wrap Up
When we arrive, we'll unload and place your belongings where you want them. Once everything is delivered, your move coordinator follows up to confirm you're all set.
Tips for Your Long-Distance Move From Victoria
- Research your destination early. Before moving day, look into neighborhoods, schools, and local services where you're headed. Knowing where the nearest grocery store or urgent care is makes settling in faster.
- Separate what's not going on the truck. Set aside donation piles, trash, and anything you're keeping with you so nothing ends up loaded by mistake.
- Pack an essentials bag. Keep daily must-haves with you, including medications, chargers, important documents, and a few days of clothes.
- Set up utilities before you arrive. Contact your new utility providers ahead of time so power, water, and internet are ready when you walk in the door.
- Plan around the heat. Victoria summers average 94°F. Schedule loading for early morning, keep water on hand for the crew, and move heat-sensitive items last so they spend the least time on the truck.
- Sort out the truck’s parking spot early. Victoria has permit and parking requirements that apply to moving trucks. Handling that in advance beats improvising while a loaded truck sits idling.
- Redirect your mail before you leave. File your change of address with USPS so nothing piles up at your old place after you’ve gone.
FAQs
How long does a long-distance move usually take?
There's no single answer, since distance, home size, and scheduling all play a role. That said, most long-distance moves take between 3 and 14 days. American Van Lines will confirm your estimated delivery window before your move begins.
What's the best time of year to move?
Generally, moving between September and May gives you more flexibility on dates and sometimes better pricing. If you have to move in summer, booking early is key since it's the busiest season for long-distance movers.
What is an inventory?
An inventory is a detailed list of everything you're moving. We'll help you create one to determine pricing and make sure all your items are accounted for and transported safely. It's a key step in ensuring nothing gets lost and your belongings arrive in perfect condition.
What payment methods do you accept, and when are payments due?
We accept major credit and debit cards as well as certified checks. Payment for long-distance moves is typically due at delivery. Your move coordinator will review the payment terms with you before your move date.
Do you provide or sell packing materials?
Yes. When you add packing services, materials are included. If you're packing yourself and need supplies, we sell boxes, tape, and protective materials and can deliver them to your home before your move.
