Long Distance Moves

Unlike a local move which is accomplished in the same or next day, long distance moves can travel up to 3000 miles and take days to complete. When you watch that moving van pull away from your home with all your worldly possessions, make sure that you did your homework up front and selected a trusted high quality mover like Corrigan.
There are real benefits to using Corrigan Moving Systems for your long distance move such as:
ProMover Accreditation
Only movers that pass stringent requirements by the American Moving & Storage Association receive ProMover accreditation. Consumers should look for this “seal of approval” when searching for a true professional moving company. Trust nothing less!
United Van Line affiliation
Corrigan is an agent for United Van Lines, the largest most trusted van line in the United States. With offices in or near every major market in the US, we can provide any destination service that you request. A successful move requires top quality services at both origin and destination. All United Van Line locations have the same stringent quality labor requirements as Corrigan. Don’t trust your household effects to a regional carrier who doesn’t have an office anywhere close to your new home! Moving in is just as important as moving out.
Award Winning Service
Don’t you deserve quality service? How do you know that a mover really does deliver “quality”? With Corrigan, you have no such worries! For the 5th year in a row, Corrigan has won the coveted United Van Lines “Customer Choice Award”. Based on nationwide customer service scores, Corrigan has been judged to be the “Best of the Best”! You will receive the same award winning service that our past customers have! Settle for nothing less.
Flexible Pricing Options
Whether your move is large in scope or small, we have three pricing options to meet your needs and fit your budget.
- Standard Estimate: this provides a projected cost but allows you to add or delete the items to be moved without additional paperwork. This is right solution when you are unsure of the items to be moved but want to at least have a reasonable projection of the cost. Final charges are determined only after the loading process has been completed.
- Not-to-Exceed Estimate: this provides a projected cost that will not increase but may decrease if the weight and services provided are less than anticipated. This option is useful when you have a lump sum allocated to pay for the move and don’t want the final move cost to exceed it.
- Guaranteed Fixed Price: this quote locks in your move cost and will not increase nor decrease based on the agreed upon services. This is popular with those that like the idea of price certainty.
On time Performance
Corrigan provides 100% on time loading commitment! Don’t trust your move to a small carrier who books your move and then runs out of trucks when it gets busy and leaves you stranded! Corrigan services over 10,000 domestic household good shipments each year and never fails to load our customer on the agreed upon date! Corrigan provides service that you can trust!
