Planning to move across the state or even further? It often sounds simple at first. Pack up, ship out, start fresh. But once you get into it, a long-distance move is rarely that easy. There’s more to think about than just loading boxes. That’s where full service long distance movers make a big difference.
Instead of handling every piece of the move on your own, many people around Orlando look for help that covers more than just the drive. They want support from start to finish, especially when packing, transporting, and setting up take a lot of energy. We’re going to walk through what full service really means, what comes with it, and how it takes some of the weight (literally and mentally) off your shoulders.
Packing and Prepping Your Belongings
One of the first things full service movers handle is packing. And not just the quick kind of packing where you toss things into bins and hope for the best.
• We come in with the supplies you’d need (boxes, tape, bubble wrap, moving blankets) and do the packing ourselves.
• Items like dishes, pictures, books, and clothing all have different needs when it comes to protection for a long trip.
• We sort and label your boxes so that when they show up at your new place, it’s clear what room they go in and what’s inside.
It’s easy to underestimate how much time packing takes until you’re in the thick of it. We take that task off your plate so you can stay on top of other moving-day details. Plus, you won’t need to worry about whether something was packed well enough to survive the road.
Our packing services at Jochas Moving and Delivery include full labeling, use of high-quality moving materials, and careful protection for delicate items, whether your home is in Orlando or any city we serve.
Loading, Transporting, and Tracking the Move
Once everything’s packed, we load it safely and in a way that helps prevent damage. That part isn’t just manpower, it’s strategy. It matters how couches, boxes, and mattresses are arranged in the truck, especially when they’re going to be on the road for hundreds of miles.
• Our team uses dollies, ramps, and secure straps to lift and hold heavy furniture the right way.
• We plan our driving routes based on what’s safe, reliable, and timely. A move to or from Orlando might involve long stretches of interstate, and we aim to keep things on schedule.
• On longer trips, we may provide updates so you know where everything is and when to expect its arrival.
People often assume once the truck is loaded, the hardest part is over. But transporting belongings long distance introduces new variables. That’s why experienced driving, reliable tools, and clear communication matter so much.
All long distance moves by Jochas Moving and Delivery are handled with insured vehicles, GPS tracking, and experienced drivers who specialize in long-haul transportation for both local and out-of-state moves.
Unloading and Setting Up at Your New Home
The last thing most people want to do after a long move is start lifting heavy furniture again. When you’re working with full service movers, unloading at your new home is part of the plan.
• We bring everything into your space, placing boxes and furniture where you want them.
• Beds, tables, and shelves that were taken apart earlier can be reassembled.
• You don’t need to sort through everything on your own, we unload based on labels, so each box lands in the right room.
This process is helpful for anyone, but it’s especially good for those arriving at a new home after a long travel day or after being without their belongings for a little while. Getting things set up quickly can make a strange space start feeling like home faster.
For every move, our crews at Jochas Moving and Delivery provide full setup services and can reassemble basic furniture, ensuring all items are unloaded and placed exactly where you need them in your new home.
Extra Help That Reduces Stress
Moving isn’t just about where things go, it’s about how you feel during the process. Stress comes in when timelines are tight or things don’t go as planned. Full service long distance movers can provide a buffer.
• Sometimes we store your belongings for a short period if your new place isn’t move-in ready.
• We manage heavy lifting and large pieces at both sites so you don’t strain yourself or need to ask others for help.
• This kind of move can be especially helpful for families managing other responsibilities, seniors planning downsizing, or anyone working under pressure to stick to a schedule.
Even just knowing you’re not doing it all alone can make a huge difference. When steps like packing, driving, and setting up are handled by professionals, your move doesn’t have to feel like climbing a mountain.
What Full Service Looks Like in Real Life
A typical full service move starts with a walk-through or planning chat, where we learn what’s moving and when. On packing day, we bring supplies and begin boxing things by room and item type. Once packed, we load everything carefully into the truck, then begin the drive.
On arrival, we unload based on labels, reassemble furniture if needed, and set up wherever it makes the most sense inside your new place.
• We often hear that this process helps people feel more relaxed and supported.
• Instead of racing to get everything done, they can focus on their kids, their pets, or just catching their breath.
• With fewer details to manage, problems are less likely to come up, and when they do, there’s someone ready to handle them.
A long-distance move may sound overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be when it’s broken into steps that are handled together.
Why It Pays to Let Movers Handle the Hard Stuff
Let’s face it, moving is tough. There are always more things to think through than you expect. From packing and driving to unloading and set-up, there’s a lot of work packed into those days.

In a place like Orlando, where schedules and families stay busy year-round, handing off the big stuff makes room for a smoother, more focused move day. Whether you’re moving to the next state or across the country, it’s good to know someone’s got your back all the way there.
