Why Minneapolis moving is its own discipline

We cover the whole state as full-service Minnesota movers, but Minneapolis is where most of our trucks sit. Downtown is almost entirely one-way, the older streets off Lyndale were platted for horses, and every August turns into a relay of student moving around Dinkytown.

One Minneapolis moving crew, Loring Park to Longfellow

No brokers and no day labor. The crew that pads your doorframes in Northeast is the crew that carries the last box in, whether you are landing a few blocks away or crossing a city line to our Golden Valley moving crews, our Richfield crews, or movers in Edina.

Fourteen ways we move a Minneapolis address

Whatever the job turns out to be, the crew and the price are set before we start.

Moves inside the city and out to the first ring, quoted as one flat figure so a jammed Hennepin Avenue does not quietly turn into extra billable hours. Houses right across the city, from 1920s bungalows in Nokomis to Victorian stock in Lowry Hill, packed and loaded room by room instead of in one rushed sweep.

HOW A MINNEAPOLIS MOVE RUNS

Our moving process across Minneapolis

A city move has more moving parts than people expect.
So nothing gets worked out on the pavement. Access, timing, price and crew are all settled well in advance of the date.
You will know the number, the day and the names before anyone turns up.
Which is why our move days tend to be quiet ones.

Walkthrough and written quote

We see the job first, on video or in person: which floor, how many stairs, whether a truck can get within a hundred feet of the door. Then one flat, all-inclusive figure, in writing.

Your move plan, locked in

Approve the number and we hold the date, then take on the rest: elevator windows, dock access, insurance certificates, and a route that actually works through downtown's one-way grid.

Move day, start to finish

One uniformed crew, on time, protecting floors and frames before anything moves. They load, drive, unload and place. The figure you approved is the figure you pay.

WHY THE CITY CALLS US FIRST

Why pick our Minneapolis movers

A third-floor walk-up in Whittier and a full house in Linden Hills are not the same job, and we do not quote them as though they were.

Licensed, Bonded, Covered

Federal and state authority on file, with cargo and liability cover carried on every job.

One Price, Fixed

One agreed figure, put in writing before we start, and it does not budge on move day.

We Arrive When We Say

Your arrival slot is a commitment, not an estimate, at the pickup and at the drop-off.

Our Own Trucks And Gear

Trucks, dollies, straps and padding that we own, maintain ourselves and check before loading.

Reachable Any Hour

Someone picks up whenever you call, whether it is a fresh booking or a last-minute change.

Backed By Our Promise

We track it and we publish it, and a 98% satisfaction score is the bar we hold ourselves to.

What the city says once the job is done

These land on our Google profile after the invoice is settled, unedited, from people who had our crews inside their homes.
The movers were fantastic! Wrapped all the furniture so well.
There was a problem with the storage locker and they handled it perfectly well on their own time and patience.
I would highly recommend them to do any move large or small.
And 79 years of age they also took care of me.
I couldnโ€™t thank them enough!!!
Sam was congenial, professional and prompt!
Jack and Jakob were pleasant, hardworking.

Derek and Marcus were absolutely AMAZING with our move! They disassembled and reassembled furniture, helped figure out the best way to set up our bedroom, lifted heavy furniture (the dining room table is a beast) and did it all without complaint. We moved from the twin cities to about 3 hours north, so I was concerned about price, but it turned out to be extremely reasonable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND BLUE DOLLY MOVING!!! Thanks guys!!!
Sam and Jacob were here to unload furniture. They were very careful and very hard-working young men! I would recommend them highly!

Minneapolis moving questions, answered

What does a move inside the city usually cost?
It comes down to volume, distance and which services you add, and we quote it as one flat figure after a walkthrough. Wrapping, floor protection and fuel sit inside that number, and no hourly clock runs while the crew waits at a light.
Can you reserve a parking space for the truck?
Worth knowing early: the City of Minneapolis will not post temporary no-parking signs for residential or commercial moves. Where there are meters we can hood them through the city's ROWay system for roughly $25 a day, but applications need seven business days' notice, so give us your date as soon as you have it.
Do you move in and out of downtown high-rises?
Regularly. Downtown and North Loop buildings almost always want a booked elevator window, dock access and a certificate of insurance naming the building. We arrange all three with management directly, usually two to three weeks ahead.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Blue Dolly Moving & Storage operates under USDOT 3928585, MnDOT 384454 and MC 1521934, and we carry full cargo and liability coverage on every move. You are welcome to verify our authority before you book.
Do you move between the city and the rest of the metro?
Daily. A lot of our work crosses the river to our St. Paul crews, and just as much runs northwest to movers in Plymouth. Same crew standard and the same flat-rate quote wherever the load ends up.
Can you handle older homes with tight staircases?
That describes most of the city. Duplexes in Powderhorn, walk-ups in Whittier and century-old houses in Lowry Hill all have turns that furniture was never designed for. We measure the awkward pieces at the walkthrough and bring the right gear.
