Maffuci moved us locally & our experience from meeting with us for a quote til the end of the move when the trucks left our new home was perfect. The movers were professional, courteous & took excellent care of packing our furniture & moving every box carefully. I would recommend Maffuci movers to anyone looking to move near or far.

Packing 101: Essential Supplies
You’re making the big jump, taking the plunge– moving. You’re probably wondering how to start packing to move. The easiest way to begin is by gathering your moving supplies. The sooner you start, the sooner you can get going on packing, and trust us, that’s not something you want to put off. When preparing to move, you’ll need to get items from two categories: supplies you need to pack and supplies you need on moving day.
Supplies You Need To Pack (And Unpack)
The first necessary item is obvious: boxes, and lots of them. You’ll want to have a variety of sizes to fit all your goodies. Heavier items should go in smaller boxes so you don’t injure yourself, and lighter items can go in bigger ones. Think about if you’ll need any specialty boxes for TVs or dishes. While getting as many free boxes as possible from the supermarket’s recycling might be tempting, you’ll want better quality boxes, too. Speak to a Maffucci representative about securing boxes, and other moving supplies, such as packing paper and tape, as you start to prepare for moving day.

Supplies Maffucci Provides On Moving Day
On the day of your big move, Maffucci will bring plenty of moving blankets. Moving blankets serve two purposes: cushioning furniture or items to avoid getting scuffed and moving heavy items. We will place objects that are too heavy to carry, usually on the blanket, and pull them across the room or cradle them with the blanket. We will also come prepared with moving dollies, allowing our moving professionals to transport heavy boxes, furniture, and appliances more safely and efficiently.
Other materials Maffucci supplies for residential movers on move-in day include:
- Shrink wrap
- Toolset
- Ratchet straps/rope
- Mattress bags
- Furniture pads
