When a Cheep Cheep Movers truck arrives at your Minneapolis home, it’s not just a vehicle — it’s a fully outfitted mobile moving system. The professional gear we bring to every job is a major part of what separates a professional move from a risky DIY haul in a rented van. Here’s a look inside our trucks.

The Moving Truck Itself

  • Air-ride suspension reduces road vibration to protect fragile items in transit
  • Padded interior walls prevent furniture from banging against metal truck surfaces
  • E-track cargo systems allow items to be secured with straps at any point in the truck
  • Hydraulic lift gates eliminate dangerous jump-carrying of heavy items into truck beds
  • Multiple sizes from cargo vans for studio apartments to 26-foot trucks for large homes

Moving Blankets — The Unsung Heroes

Professional moving blankets weigh 5-6 lbs each, made from quilted cotton or recycled denim. We carry dozens on every job.

They protect furniture surfaces from scratches, walls and doorframes from impact, and items from vibration damage in transit. They also provide grip on smooth furniture surfaces.

Every piece of furniture should be blanket-wrapped before loading on the truck — without exception.

Dollies for Every Situation

  • Appliance dolly: for refrigerators, washers, dryers, and box stacks — with stair-climbing capability
  • Four-wheel furniture dolly: flat platform that makes pushing a 300-lb dresser effortless
  • Piano dolly: extra-wide, heavy-duty, with premium swivel casters for piano weight
  • Mattress cart: holds mattresses vertically without bending

Moving Straps and Harnesses

Moving straps loop under heavy items and over movers’ shoulders, transferring weight to hips and legs — the strongest parts of the human body.

Two movers using proper straps can safely carry items that would injure four people carrying by hand. They also keep items stable and level during transport.

Floor and Wall Protection

  • Ram Board or cardboard runners protect hardwood floors, tile, and carpet in high-traffic move paths
  • Door frame protectors: foam-padded clips preventing gouges from furniture corners
  • Plastic stretch wrap: protects upholstered furniture from dirt and moisture

All Included — No Hidden Fees

All professional equipment is included in our pricing on every Cheep Cheep Movers job. No equipment rental costs, no hidden fees. What you’re quoted is what you pay.
