Most movers quote one price and hand you a different bill at the door. We lock the rate before we touch a single item. No stair fees, no truck fuel surcharges, nothing added at the end. You rent the truck, our university-student moving crew handles every box, every stair, every piece of furniture.
Our movers are professionally trained, licensed, and insured. If a mover arrives 30 minutes after the scheduled start, $50 comes off your bill.

LOCAL KNOWLEDGE
What to know about moving in Newport News
Newport News stretches twenty-plus miles along the James River, so the move you quote depends heavily on which end you are on. The southern end near the shipyard has older, denser blocks where shift changes flood the streets around 3:30 pm; schedule around them. Midtown and the Denbigh and Kiln Creek areas to the north are conventional suburban moves. Christopher Newport move-ins cluster in late August, and anything crossing the water toward Norfolk rides the same bridge-tunnel constraints as the rest of the Peninsula.
Peak season
May, June, July, August
Weekend slots fill 2–3 weeks out during peak months. Book early.
Crew recruited from Christopher Newport University, university-affiliated, background-checked, accountable.

COMMON QUESTIONS
Frequently asked about Newport News moves
How much does it cost to move in Newport News?
Every move is priced by the hour. The rate is locked before we start, with no stair fees, fuel surcharges, or hidden add-ons. Two movers run $112 per hour, and most moves run $200–$350 total for a 2-person crew over 2 to 3 hours. Larger homes that need a third mover or more hours run higher, with the rate locked before we start. Truck rental is separate if you need one. If we finish early, you pay less.
Do I need to provide a truck?
We're labor-only movers. You rent the truck from U-Haul, Penske, or Budget. We handle all the loading, unloading, and heavy lifting. We'll tell you the exact size to get and can book it for you if you want.

Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Undergrads is a fully licensed and insured moving company in every market we serve, including Newport News. Every move includes $1,000 in damage protection.
