Dreading the thought of wrapping an entire kitchen in bubble wrap by yourself? Packing is the part of moving people put off the longest, and rushed packing is where most moving damage actually starts, not in the truck. New Chapters Moving Company packs full homes or just the items you would rather not handle yourself.
Packing comes down to decisions that show up later, not on packing day itself: which box a fragile item goes in so it is not crushed under something heavier, how much paper actually goes around a glass versus a plate, and which room gets packed first so nothing gets left for a rushed last hour. Most people pack their own home once every few years and learn the hard way. We pack for a living, so those calls are already made before the first box is taped shut.
How Your Packing Service Runs
Tell us whether you want your whole home packed or just specific rooms and fragile items handled by our crew. We bring all the necessary materials on packing day and work room by room, wrapping fragile items individually and using appropriately sized boxes rather than overloading a few large ones. Every box gets labeled by room and, where useful, by contents, so unloading matches how the home was packed rather than becoming a guessing game.
What Every Packing Service Includes
Full-home or partial packing is available depending on what you actually want handled, with every material supplied as part of the service, including boxes, tape, bubble wrap, and packing paper. Specialty packing covers fragile and delicate items with extra wrapping and dedicated boxes, and unpacking at your new home is available as an add-on if you want boxes emptied and put away rather than just delivered.
Why You Should Hire a Professional Packing and Moving Company
Hiring a company to both pack and move you is the single best way to reduce the stress of a relocation. It’s the “magic button” that gives you your time back.
People who try to do it all themselves often regret it. They think they’ll save money, but they end up paying for it with their time, their sanity, and often, their own broken belongings.
Here’s why hiring full-service packers and movers is the best decision you can make.
What Professional Packing Saves You
- Time: packing a three-bedroom home can take the average person 40 to 50 hours. Our packing crew can do it in one day.
- Your fragile items: double-walled dish packs, individually wrapped glassware, the right materials for electronics, and picture boxes or custom crating for artwork.
- Stress: on moving day you point, and we do the work.
Why Choose Our Packers and Movers?
When you are trusting a company with literally everything you own, trust matters most. Hiring us means one accountable team from the first box to the last.
One Team Packs and Moves
Hiring us as your packers and movers means you get one single, accountable team. The same company that packs your items is the one that moves them. This creates a seamless process.
Our moving teams are professional, full-time, and trained.
- Furniture Protection: We don’t just pack boxes. We professionally wrap all your furniture. Sofas, dressers, and tables are wrapped in heavy-duty moving blankets and secured with shrink wrap.
- Home Protection: We use floor runners to protect your hardwoods and carpets. We use padding on door jambs and banisters to prevent scuffs and dings.
- Loading Expertise: Our crew leaders are experts at loading a moving truck. They know how to build a “tier” and secure everything so nothing shifts, falls, or breaks during transport.
- Efficiency: Our team works together every day. They have a system. They work quickly, but never rush. This saves you time and ensures the job is done right.
Licensed and Insured
You have choices. But when you’re trusting a company with literally everything you own, trust matters most.
We are a professional, licensed, and insured company.
When you hire New Chapters Moving, you are hiring a legitimate business that is accountable for your move.
- US DOT #: 3881904
- FL License #: IM3643
That “IM” number means we are registered with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS). It’s the state’s official license for movers. It’s your proof that we are insured and follow the law.
Never, ever hire packers and movers who cannot provide you with these numbers. A “cheap” unlicensed mover on a classifieds site has no insurance and no accountability. If they break your TV or vanish with your items, you have no options.

Our Professional Packing Services Explained
When we say “packers and movers,” we mean it. But the service isn’t all or nothing. We can customize our packing services to fit your exact needs and budget.
Full Packing Services
This is the “Done-For-You” dream. It’s exactly what it sounds like.
Our team arrives (usually the day before your move) and packs your entire home.
- Kitchens: Every dish, pot, pan, and utensil.
- Bedrooms: Clothes from closets, items from dressers.
- Living Rooms: Books, photos, electronics, lamps.
- Garages/Sheds: Tools, boxes, and a-bit-of-everything.
- Bathrooms: All your toiletries and linens.
We bring all the materials: every box, every roll of tape, all the paper, and all the bubble wrap. We label every box clearly with its contents and the room it belongs in. You don’t have to do anything.
Partial Packing Services
Maybe you don’t mind packing your clothes and books, but you are dreading one or two rooms. No problem. We can help with just the parts you hate.
By far, the most common request is “Fragile-Only” or Kitchen Packing.
This is our most popular partial packing service. You handle the easy stuff, and we send in our expert team to professionally pack your entire kitchen and any other fragile items you have (like china cabinets, artwork, or collections). It’s a great balance of saving money and protecting your most valuable items.
Unpacking Services
This is the ultimate upgrade for a stress-free move. We don’t just drop the boxes and leave. We can stay and get you settled.
Our unpacking services include:
- Unpacking all your boxes.
- Placing dishes and cookware in your new cabinets.
- Putting clothes in closets.
- Setting items on shelves.
- Assembling beds and furniture.
- Removing all the empty boxes and packing debris.
You can leave your old house in the morning and be sitting in your new, fully set-up living room by that same evening.

How much do packers and movers cost?
The cost depends on the size of your home and how much packing you need (full or partial). The best way to know is to get a free quote. We will provide a detailed, all-inclusive estimate that shows you exactly what you’re paying for.
Do I need to buy my own boxes or tape?
Not at all. When you hire us for our professional packing services, we bring everything. We use high-quality, professional-grade boxes, tape, paper, and bubble wrap.
How long does the packing part take?
For most homes, we schedule our packing team to come in the day before the actual move. For a 2-4 bedroom home, a full pack usually takes our team one business day.
Should I empty my dresser drawers?
In most cases, you can leave light items (like clothes) in your dresser drawers. We will simply wrap the entire dresser with pads and shrink wrap. We'll advise you on this during your estimate.
What about my high-value items?
Please point out any high-value items to our team leader. We can provide custom crating for things like glass tabletops, marble, or expensive artwork to ensure they are fully protected.
Do you unpack at my new home, or only pack?
Both options are available. Let us know when you book which one you would like, and we can quote accordingly.
Can I book packing without a full move?
Yes. Packing services can be booked entirely on their own, separate from the transport itself.
