"Jose and his 2 man team from Rocket Services showed up yesterday right on time and after a through walk through with myself began to unload my two full Pods. Their respectful and efficient unloading of all of my personal items was something to behold and I was very pleased with the overall experience! I would highly recommend Rocket Services to my family and friends as my new moving resource for the Front Range from now on..."

"Jose and his crew did an amazing job. They were very professional and treated our items and home with respect. They loaded our pod efficiently and ensured all of our furniture was protected and would not move around during transit. I would highly recommend them for anyone's moving needs. We were grateful for their hard work and impressed with the professionalism they showed."

How should a moving trailer be loaded to prevent sway?
Most of the weight should sit in front of the axle and be balanced left to right, with heavy items low. Too much weight at the back can cause sway. Rocket Services helpers load with this balance in mind and tie everything down before you tow.
Can helpers load a trailer on a mountain property?
Yes. Trailers are common on mountain and rural properties where a box truck is hard to maneuver. Mention steep driveways, gravel and long carries when you book. Mileage is $1 per round-trip mile from the Aurora base, so a property 20 miles away adds about $40.
Does Rocket Services tow my trailer?
This service is labor only for loading and unloading. You tow the trailer, and the crew loads it at one end and unloads it at the other. If you do not have a trailer, rent a truck, trailer or container and the crew can load that instead.
What should I bring for loading an open utility trailer?
Enough ratchet straps for every section and a tarp to cover the load. Moving blankets protect furniture from rubbing against rails. Straps and blankets can be added to your booking if you do not have them.
