Last-Minute Moves

A job offer, a closing that moved up, a lease that fell through. When a move has to happen now, AMEX has the trucks and crews to make it work. We offer flexible scheduling and fit short-notice moves in as fast as our calendar allows.

Packing takes the most time, so our packers can take it off your hands: full-service, fragile-only or just the furniture. You get the same written quote, the same wrapping and the same dedicated agent as a move planned months ahead.

A great fit for

  • Job relocations with a start date next week
  • Closings and leases that moved up
  • Moves another company canceled on
  • Anyone who needs a real answer today
