A Family-Owned Gilbert Moving Company

Jones Moving & Storage is run by Steve and Candice Jones, with their two sons now helping lead the business. Steve took his first job in the moving industry at 16, back in Birmingham, Michigan. He and Candice fell in love with Arizona on a cross-country moving job and made Phoenix home. That background is why our Gilbert movers work the way a family business should: on time, careful with your things and honest about the price.

Our trucks leave from our headquarters in north Phoenix, so every East Valley job starts with a plan for the drive. We plan the route and the arrival time around East Valley freeway traffic before the truck rolls. When you choose Jones Moving & Storage, you get a team that shows up prepared, keeps you informed throughout the process and holds itself to a high standard on every job.

Jones Moving & Storage gives the items customers leave behind to Saving Amy, a Phoenix nonprofit.

Step 1: Free Quote

Call (623) 221-3335 or fill in the quote form. We send back an itemized price for your Gilbert move, and it carries no hidden fees. Add something later, and you hear about the price change before the crew goes ahead with it.

Step 2: Booking

Most local moves are booked 4 to 6 weeks ahead and long-distance moves 6 to 8 weeks ahead. We fit shorter timelines when the schedule allows, and we are available 7 days a week.

Step 3: Packing

If you booked packing, the crew packs your home on the schedule we agree. If you are packing yourself, keep valuables, medication and documents with you.

Step 4: Protecting Your Furniture

We protect furniture with furniture pads and stretch wrap and cover mattresses with mattress covers. Beds, tables and other pieces are taken apart on request.

Step 5: Loading and Transport

The crew loads the truck and drives it to your new address, whether that is a few miles across Gilbert or across the country.

Step 6: Unloading and Setup

We place furniture in the rooms you choose, put back together anything we took apart and unpack if you booked unpacking.

How Much Do Movers Cost in Gilbert?

Our Gilbert movers price every job on four things, the same factors listed on our moving FAQs page.

1

Size and Volume

A one-bedroom apartment and a four-bedroom house need different crew sizes and truck time. Our quote form starts with your move size, from a single item to a four-bedroom house or an office.

2

Distance

A move across Gilbert is priced differently from a move to Tucson or to another state.

3

Services

Packing, unpacking, storage and specialty items such as a piano, hot tub or safe all add to the job.

4

Property Logistics

Stairs, long walks from the door to the truck, elevators, gated entries and HOA parking rules can add time.

Free, Itemized and No Hidden Fees

Whatever the size of your move, the quote is free, itemized and comes with no hidden fees. If the scope changes after you book, for example you add a room of furniture or ask for packing, we explain the price change before the work goes ahead.

Long Distance Movers in Gilbert, AZ

Plenty of families move here from out of state, and plenty of residents leave Arizona for work or family too. Our Gilbert movers handle both directions. The Jones Moving & Storage long-distance moving service covers interstate moves to and from Gilbert, and our in-state service covers moves to other Arizona cities such as Tucson, Flagstaff or Prescott.

An interstate move crosses state lines, and the mover must be registered with the federal government for that. Jones Moving & Storage holds USDOT #1851763 and MC #670510, which you can look up on the FMCSA website before you book.

Book 6 to 8 weeks ahead for a long-distance move, and earlier for summer, when many families move between school years. Need time between homes? We can hold your belongings in storage and deliver when your new place is ready. One customer had the contents of a storage unit moved all the way from Phoenix to Indianapolis.

Local vs long-distance moves:

  • Local: stays within the Phoenix metro area, for example Gilbert to Mesa or Gilbert to Chandler
  • In-state: goes to another Arizona city
  • Interstate: crosses state lines, with a quote that lists every service you choose

Planning a Move Around Gilbert's Neighborhoods

Much of the town is built around master-planned communities, and each one comes with its own logistics. We ask about these when we build your quote, so our Gilbert movers arrive ready for them.

Master-Planned Communities and HOA Rules

Communities such as Power Ranch, Morrison Ranch, Cooley Station, Agritopia and Waterston have homeowners associations. Ask yours about its rules on where a moving truck can park, how long a portable storage container can sit in a driveway and what hours work can happen, and send them to us with your quote request. Tell us about any gated entry too, so the crew is on the visitor list.

55+ Communities and Downsizing

Trilogy at Power Ranch is a gated 55+ community in the southeast part of town. If you are moving from a larger family home into a single-level house there, Jones Moving & Storage offers senior moves, and our crew can pack the larger home, move you and unpack in the new one. Items you do not take can go to Saving Amy.

Townhomes, Apartments and the Heritage District

If you live in downtown Gilbert around the Heritage District or in an apartment community near SanTan Village, ask your property manager about parking for the truck and how to reserve the elevator and loading area. Let us know about long walks from the unit to the street, so we plan the crew around them.

Summer Heat and Moving Day Timing

From late spring through early fall, afternoons in the East Valley often pass 100 degrees. Book an early start when you can, keep water for yourself and the crew, and pack candles, vinyl records, medication and electronics in a cool car, not the truck.

Settling Into Gilbert: Local Resources

Gilbert is a town in Maricopa County, and a few calls before moving day make your first week easier.

Water, Trash and Recycling

Set up with the Town of Gilbert utilities office.

Electricity

SRP or APS, depending on your address. Check which one covers your street before you call.

Natural Gas

Southwest Gas.

Schools

Gilbert Public Schools, Higley Unified School District and Chandler Unified School District each serve parts of town.

Getting Out

The Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch, the Heritage District restaurants and SanTan Village are good first stops once the boxes are unpacked.

Before Moving Day

If you are packing yourself, keep valuables, medication and documents with you, not on the truck.

Jones Moving was amazing. My move was smooth an uneventful! They kept my belongings in storage between closings and everything was in perfect shape when delivered to my new home. We plan on moving again in the next year and I would most definitely call Jones Movong for the job!

Gilbert Moving FAQs

We recommend booking a local Gilbert move 4 to 6 weeks ahead and a long-distance move 6 to 8 weeks ahead. If you have a fixed closing date or lease end, book as soon as you know it. If your timeline is shorter, call us anyway. We fit shorter notice moves whenever the schedule allows.

The cost depends on the size of your home, the distance, the services you add, such as packing, storage or a piano, and access at both homes, such as stairs, elevators or HOA parking rules. We give every customer a free, itemized quote, so you see the price for your move before you book.

No. Your quote is itemized and there are no hidden fees. If the scope of the move changes, for example you add items or ask for packing on the day, we explain any change to the price before we continue, so you are never surprised by the final bill.

Jones Moving & Storage is licensed and insured, and our federal registration numbers are USDOT #1851763 and MC #670510. We protect your furniture with pads, stretch wrap and mattress covers and pack fragile items with specialty materials. Ask us about coverage options when you request your quote.

In general, a local move stays inside the Phoenix metro area, such as Gilbert to Mesa or Chandler. A long-distance move goes to another Arizona city or across state lines. Interstate moves require federal registration, and Jones Moving & Storage holds USDOT #1851763 and MC #670510. Long-distance moves need more booking lead time, usually 6 to 8 weeks.

Movers generally do not transport hazardous materials such as propane tanks, gasoline, paint thinner or pool chemicals, and you should keep cash, jewelry, medication and important documents with you. Pianos, hot tubs, gun safes and pool tables are fine: those are part of our specialty moving services.

Yes. Weekend moves are available, which helps families who work during the week. Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 7:00 am to 6:00 pm, and Saturday and Sunday, 7:00 am to 12:00 pm. Holiday availability varies, and we are closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas, so ask early if you need a holiday date.

Whether you tip is up to you, and it is never required. Many people tip when the crew handles a long day, heavy items or summer heat with care. On a hot afternoon, cold water and a short lunch break go a long way too. If you do tip, handing it to the crew lead at the end of the day is simplest.

Gilbert is in Maricopa County, in the southeast Phoenix metro area known as the East Valley. It borders Mesa, Chandler and Queen Creek. Jones Moving & Storage serves Gilbert from our Phoenix headquarters, and we move customers between Gilbert and every one of those neighboring cities.
