Insurance
You want to be sure that you are secure, even on your moving day. Damage to your items can be a huge bummer in your move to Alaska. It is way worse when your mover does not care.
Although Alaska furniture moving companies carry basic insurance as demanded by Federal law, you still want a company that has a comprehensive coverage service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Licensed Alaska movers typically provide estimates within 10% accuracy when details such as inventory, access type, and distance are clear. For binding quotes, most companies require an on-site or virtual survey before issuing a written estimate. Weather and ferry scheduling can also affect timing and final costs. For accurate pricing, use our moving estimate calculator before scheduling your move.
The ideal season for an Alaska move is June through August, when roads are clear and temperatures mild. Book at least 4–6 weeks ahead for long-distance moves and 2–3 weeks for local ones to secure your preferred date. Early summer booking helps avoid ferry delays and limited crew availability. Explore options with our long distance moving service.
Moves under 50–100 miles within the same metro area, such as Anchorage or Fairbanks, are considered local. Longer in-state relocations like Anchorage to Juneau are intrastate. Any move crossing state lines falls under FMCSA interstate regulations, requiring a USDOT-registered carrier. Check your mover’s credentials at FMCSA.gov.
Movers cannot handle flammables, firearms, perishables, live plants, or pets. Hazardous items such as propane, paint thinner, and cleaning chemicals are also prohibited. For full compliance, review the FMCSA’s banned item list before packing. See our full service movers page for approved packing support.
Local moves within Anchorage or Juneau usually take 1–2 days. Intrastate moves across Alaska can take 3–6 days, while interstate shipments from the lower 48 typically require 7–21 days due to ferry schedules and weather delays. Early coordination with your mover ensures better timing and route planning.
Same-day moving services are available in major areas like Anchorage when crews are free. However, weather and ferry logistics can limit last-minute availability, especially during winter. To secure urgent help, contact a same day movers provider as soon as possible to confirm openings.
Yes, many Alaska movers offer short-term or climate-controlled storage for delayed deliveries or renovation periods. Storage access varies by season and location—Anchorage has the most reliable facilities year-round. Learn more about options through our moving storage services.
Keep your written estimate, inventory list, bill of lading, and insurance certificate accessible. Movers may also request proof of ID, building access authorization, or ferry transport documents for remote deliveries. Staying organized with all records ensures quick check-in during pickup and delivery.
Document all issues and contact the mover first for resolution. If unresolved, file a formal complaint with the FMCSA’s National Consumer Complaint Database or the Alaska Department of Law. Keep all estimates, receipts, and communications for evidence.
