Smart-home gear you should pack — Kansas City move
Hubs, cameras, doorbells, the thermostat. You pack them. We will not reset your network. How smart-home gear sits next to a Kansas City truck — not the TV mount page.
TVs and electronics is screens upright. Flat-screen mount left or taken is the bracket on the wall. Medications and documents off the truck is the next page. This page is the small gear that runs the house: hubs, cameras, a doorbell, a thermostat you still own. You pack it. We will not unpair your account or set up Wi-Fi at dest. Two ZIP codes: Get my price. We will not write “licensed and insured.”
From [$XXX] an hour for two movers and a truck — two movers and a truck. Most local jobs $1,200–$1,500. A box of hubs does not change that number. A seized doorbell we have to chip out of brick can. What changes the price. How we quote: two ZIP codes. Compare hours: how to compare hourly quotes. Damage: [TIM'S DAMAGE POLICY]. What I will honour: [WHAT TIM WILL HONOUR].
What you pack. What stays on the wall.
- Hubs, sensors, remotes — in a tote you keep or a first-night box — first-night box
- Cameras and doorbells you own: unscrew them; we are not your electrician
- A thermostat the house keeps: leave it if the sale says so — closing day
- Rental gear that is not yours: moving out of a rental, landlord walkthrough
- Hard drives and a NAS: upright, with you if you cannot replace them — what not to put on the truck, home office
Utilities are power and water, not your SSID — utilities and moving day. Mail is still yours — change of address is not our job. Be home with the tote — how to be home. Two doors: who should be at each end. What you are not taking: a wired panel that stays with the house — what you are not taking. New construction with no network yet: new-construction. Office hours if the gear is a shop: office moves around your hours. Server closet is a different sentence — server closet. Morning-of: moving-day morning. Kids and pets: kids and pets.
What we will not do with your network
We will not reset a router as a favor. We will not “just take the doorbell” if it is hardwired into a rental you have to make good. We will not inventory serial numbers unless we wrote that. How long: how long a local move takes. If it runs long because a camera was still screwed to brick, that is still the clock — what we do if it runs long. A third is for a piano or a safe, not for a hub — when you need a third, how we staff three. Labour only still is not IT — labour-only. A tip is not a password — tipping.

Origin ready, dest not: origin ready, destination not. Overnight on the truck: hubs ride with you, not on a sealed truck — overnight on the truck. What to tell us: cameras you own vs the building’s — what to tell us. Week before: what movers need the week before. After the form: after you request a price. Photos: photos that get a written price. Video: video walkthrough. Walk: what a walkthrough looks like. Rain: rain plan for a walk-up. Ice: ice on the drive. Heat: heat and a third-floor walk-up.

Frequently asked questions
Will you unpair my cameras?
No. You pack the gear. We will not reset your network.
Is this the TV page?
That page is screens. The mount page is the bracket. This page is hubs and doorbells. Read them.
Doorbell screwed into brick.
Unscrewing it is yours unless we wrote labour on that wall. A seized mount is still the clock.
Router in a first-night tote.
Yes. Ride with you. See first-night box and what not to put on the truck.
Building’s camera in the hall.
Not yours. HOA and landlord pages. Do not pull what you do not own.
Pack the hubs. Leave the building’s cameras.
Two ZIP codes and what stays on the wall. We will write furniture, not a network reset.
