Will the movers mount my TV at the new home?

No, our movers do not hang televisions on walls. That is a firm rule for liability reasons, because a mount that fails later can damage the wall, the screen or someone standing below it. What we can do is bring the TV over safely and get it running on a stand or console.

Think of the TV as two separate jobs. Moving it is ours. Anchoring a bracket into studs, running cables inside the wall and leveling the screen belongs to a TV installer you book for after move day.

• Taking it down: yes, as long as the bracket comes off without specialized tools.
• Packing and transport: yes, ideally in a proper TV box so the screen is protected in the truck.
• Connecting on a stand: yes, the crew can plug it in and get it set up on furniture.
• Hanging it on the new wall: no, not on any move.

1. Mention the TV and its size when you ask for your quote, so the crew knows to have the right box on the truck.
2. Keep the remote, small screws and the wall bracket together in one labeled bag inside a box, not loose.
3. Decide where the TV will stand at the new home so the crew can set it there during unloading.
4. Book an installer for the days after the move if you want it back on a wall.

Our moving checklist has room to note items like this so nothing gets forgotten in the rush.

There is no separate TV fee. Plugging it in on a stand is simply part of the crew's working time on your local move, which is billed by the hour. The only add-on is the box if you need one, priced as a packing material.
