What Silver is
A
The Silver Package adds $35 per hour to your crew rate and covers the protection your bulky fragile pieces need: mattress covers plus the wrapping and boxing for TVs, mirrors, large frames and glass tabletops. It applies to the full completion time of the move, and you can decide on it after the work is done.
What Silver covers, item by item
A| Item | Standard rate | With Silver |
|---|---|---|
| Mattress covers | $15 each | Included |
| TV boxes | Up to $50 each (75 inch) | Included |
| Mirrors, big frames, glass tops | Wrapping and boxes billed as used | Included |
| Moving blankets, tape, wardrobe boxes | Free | Free |
| Packing of dishes, books and loose contents | Not included | Not included |
Silver is about the awkward, breakable shapes. Boxing up the kitchen and closets is a different service, covered on our packing services page.
How the math looks
AWith a standard crew of 3 movers, the rate is $175 per hour. Silver turns that into $210 per hour for every hour of the job, drive time included. For example, a move billed at 5 hours adds 5 x $35 = $175. Compare that with what the same items would cost one by one: two mattresses, one TV and a couple of mirrors can add up quickly, but a single TV and one bed may not. The moving cost guide walks through full examples.
Who tends to pick it
A- Homes with several beds plus a wall of framed art or a large mirror.
- Households with more than one big screen and a glass dining or coffee table.
- Anyone who would rather not count individual covers and boxes.
If all you have is one TV and a mattress or two, there is nothing to commit to in advance. The crew bills supplies normally, and at the end we compare the two totals. If Silver comes out cheaper, we switch you to it. We do not push a package; you choose once the numbers are in front of you.

AQuestions and answers
QDo I pay $35 per hour per mover?
No. The $35 is added once to the hourly rate for the whole crew and truck, not multiplied by the number of movers.
QDoes Silver include packing my kitchen?
No. Silver stops at mattresses and large fragile pieces. Full packing of loose items and contents is the Golden Package.
QCan I add Silver after the move is finished?
Yes. The crew tracks the supplies used, and at the end you can compare and choose whichever total is lower.
