FAQs
- How did you get started doing this type of work?
I was moving from the French Quarter and did not own a car. I got around on a bicycle so decided to move using my bike. I found a large trailer made by Bikes At Work and ordered one. My intention was to use the trailer then store it to use if I needed to move again. During my move many people asked about what I was doing and wanted my number so I could help them move sometime. Sensing a demand I started MOVE IT! by bike.
- Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?
We moved a client out of the French Quarter to the CBD. Her old place was on the second floor down twisting narrow stairs. Her new place was on the fourth floor up some long steps but no elevator. We had to lower a couch over the balcony to get it out. Six movers were employed for this job. Two at the moving out location to pack and move things out to the street and help load the trailers. Two to pull the trailers with a bicycle from the moving out location to the moving in location and then back to do it again. And two to help unload the trailers and bring everything up to the moving in place. MOVE IT! by bike completed this job in less time than predicted and under budget.
