Big Lake homes, and what that means on the day.

In town homes plus lake properties with seasonal access.

Lake places can have steep or soft approaches. If the truck cannot get close, we shuttle, and that is worth pricing before the day rather than on it.

Questions

Moving in Big Lake: common questions.

Can the moving truck park on the street early in the morning in a Big Lake winter?
From November 1 through April 15, the city bans parking on any street from 12:01 a.m. to 8 a.m. A truck arriving before 8 a.m. in that season cannot wait on the street, so clear driveway space if you can.
What happens if it snows before my Big Lake move?
After a snowfall of 2 inches or more, all Big Lake streets must be cleared of vehicles until all streets are plowed. Tell your coordinator if snow is in the forecast.
Do spring road limits in Big Lake affect a moving truck?
During the spring period set by the state, Big Lake roads are limited to 5 tons on any single axle on unpaved streets and 10 tons on paved streets unless posted, and the city says the restrictions typically will not affect the average car or truck. The city publishes a map of streets that can carry more than 5 tons per axle.

Pick only the parts you need.

Each of these is available on its own. Plenty of people book loading and unloading only and drive the truck themselves.
