Popular Moving Services in Norman
What Norman Residents Need Most
Labor-Only Moving (HUGE in Norman!):
The student market drives massive demand for labor-only services. OU students rent U-Hauls and need professional help loading/unloading. Our labor-only service provides the muscle without the truck rental cost - perfect for budget-conscious students AND for Norman families doing DIY moves. We can load, unload, or both (if we do both, we provide blankets and straps - you save on rental costs!).
Student Storage (May-August):
Every May, 29,145 OU students need somewhere to store belongings for summer. We load storage units efficiently, offer our blanket rental program ($15 deposit per pad, get it back when we move you out in August!), and use stretch wrap to secure everything. August retrieval is seamless - we know the Norman storage facilities and Campus Corner logistics by heart.
Full-Service Packing for OU Faculty:
University professors and staff often need comprehensive packing - libraries of books, home office setups with research materials, valuable collections. Our systematic packing with unlimited materials and proper labeling makes academic relocations smooth. We've packed tenure-track faculty moving from across the country and understand the timeline pressures of academic positions.
Apartment Moving Specialists:
Campus Corner and University area apartments have tight hallways, limited parking, and strict move-in/out windows. We're experts at Norman apartment logistics - we know which complexes have elevator reservations, which have difficult access, and how to work efficiently in tight spaces. Small apartment moves are our bread and butter in Norman.
Piano Moving (Yes, In Norman Too!):
Not just students - Norman families, OU music faculty, and the School of Music create piano moving demand. We move uprights from student practice spaces and grands from faculty homes. Campus area tight access? We've navigated it hundreds of times.
Junk Removal for Rental Properties:
Norman landlords call us constantly for tenant clean-outs. Students leave stuff behind every May. Rental property turnover is huge. Our truck-based pricing (single item $150 to full truck $950) and same/next-day service keeps Norman rental properties turning over fast.
Long-Distance for Post-Graduation:
OU grads staying in Oklahoma often move to OKC for jobs. Grads leaving Oklahoma head to Dallas, Texas, or coasts. Our same-crew, direct-delivery long-distance model serves both - your college furniture transported with the same care whether going 20 miles to OKC or 1,000 miles to California.
Our Moving Process: Simple, Transparent, Professional
Step 1: Free Quote
Call
(580) 595-1262, fill out our online form, or use our AI home scan technology. We'll discuss your move details - whether you're an OU student moving into Campus Corner, a faculty member relocating to North Norman, or a family upgrading within the city. We provide a flat-rate quote with complete transparency - no hidden fees, no surprise charges, ever. Norman moves have unique considerations (OU game day timing, apartment complex logistics, student budgets vs. faculty needs), and we account for all of it in your customized quote.
2: Schedule Your Move
Choose your date and time - we're flexible and work around YOUR schedule, not ours. Norman's busy periods (August 15-25 OU move-in, May 10-20 move-out) book months in advance, so we recommend scheduling early if moving during peak season. For Norman families, we coordinate with school calendars (Norman Public Schools). For OU faculty, we align with semester schedules. For students, we work around class schedules and parent coordination. Evening consultations available, weekend moves welcome, after-hours service if needed ($30/hour premium).
Step 3: Professional Packing (Optional)
Need help packing? Our team handles everything from boxes to specialty items. OU faculty libraries (we pack LOTS of books in small boxes!), student apartments (fast, efficient packing), family homes (toy rooms, sports equipment, everything). We provide unlimited FREE materials (packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, TV boxes, mattress bags) - you just buy boxes. Full-service packing, partial packing (just kitchen and fragile items), or pack-yourself with our materials. Norman moves often involve academic materials, research collections, or student belongings - we handle all of it with appropriate care.
Step 4: Moving Day
Our professional crew arrives on time (early morning if summer heat!), ready to work in Norman's unique environment. Campus Corner tight parking? We navigate it. Apartment elevator reservation? We coordinate it. OU game day traffic? We planned around it (or started at 6 AM!). We treat your belongings like our own - whether it's a student's IKEA furniture and textbooks, a professor's valuable research materials and home library, or a North Norman family's complete household. Floor protection down, furniture disassembled, everything wrapped and loaded with care. We've moved hundreds of Norman residents - we know what we're doing.
Step 5: Delivery & Setup
We place everything where you want it in your new Norman home - actual rooms, not just dumped in the garage like some movers do. Furniture reassembled (beds ready to sleep in!), boxes in correct rooms (labeled clearly!), everything positioned as you direct. Student apartment? We work fast (you have class tomorrow!). Faculty home? We take time to set up properly. Family move? Kid-friendly crews patient with children around. Norman's diverse housing (Campus Corner apartments to North Norman family homes) requires different approaches - we adapt to YOUR situation.
Step 6: Final Walkthrough
We walk through together - verify everything in place, answer any questions, confirm complete satisfaction. We don't leave until you're 100% happy, whether you're an OU freshman in your first apartment or a Norman family of 30 years moving to a new neighborhood. That's the High Quality Moving guarantee - satisfaction before we go. Your Norman move, done right.
