Residential Moves
Gerber Moving & Storage specializes in residential relocations, handling local and long-distance moves with professional care. Our trained crews pack, transport, and unpack household goods using industry-standard materials and specialized equipment. We coordinate timing to minimize disruption while ensuring secure transportation of fragile and valuable items.
Commercial Moves
Our commercial moving services handle office relocations with minimal business disruption. We utilize specialized equipment like A-frame dollies for partitions and gondolas for desks while protecting electronics and sensitive equipment. The process includes inventory management and strategic scheduling to maintain operational continuity during business transitions.
Piano Moving
Gerber provides specialized piano moving services using equipment designed for delicate instruments. Our technicians handle upright, grand, and electronic pianos with climate-controlled storage options.
