Standard Service vs. White Glove
Most moves don't need white-glove. When they do, the difference is worth it — larger crew, custom crating, and placement service so nothing gets damaged and nothing gets lost.

How Our White Glove Process Works
In-Home Consultation
Free walkthrough of the current home and (if needed) the destination. We identify the pieces that need custom care and give you a written quote before any commitment.
Pre-Move Planning
Custom crates ordered for anything requiring one. Materials delivered a day early if you want to start packing. Building COIs and elevator reservations coordinated.
Move Day - Pack & Load
Larger crew arrives with the specialty equipment we planned. Everything blanket-wrapped, custom-crated, or padded before it leaves the room. Itemized inventory documented with photos.
Transport & Placement
Direct route to destination. At the new address we unload, unwrap, place each piece exactly where you want it, reassemble beds/tables, and remove all packing debris.
Walk-Through & Sign-Off
You walk the property with the crew lead, check the inventory sheet, and inspect the placement of every piece before the crew leaves.
White Glove Moving FAQs
What is white glove moving?+
White glove moving is a premium tier of service designed for high-value residences, executive offices, and items that need extra care - antiques, fine art, custom furniture, pianos, chandeliers, and similar. It typically includes full packing, custom crating where needed, blanket wrap on every item, larger crews for faster completion, itemized inventory with photos, placement at the destination, and unpacking with debris removal. The idea is: you don't lift a finger, and nothing gets a scratch.
How much does white glove moving cost in Kansas City?+
White glove moves are quoted individually because the service level varies by inventory. A typical white-glove 3-bedroom home in KC runs $2,500-$5,000 for a local move (compared to $900-$1,400 for standard service). A 5-bedroom estate or a luxury condo with fine art can run $6,000-$12,000+. We provide a written quote after a free in-home consultation.
Do you handle fine art and antiques?+
Yes - regularly. Framed art, canvases, sculptures, and cabinet-style antiques are all standard for our white-glove crews. High-value single items (gallery pieces valued over $10,000) may need a specialized crate or custom insurance rider - we advise during your quote.
Can you do a white glove long distance move?+
Yes. White glove service is available on both local and interstate moves. For long-distance white-glove, we combine our premium pack/crate/wrap service with our direct-route interstate model - same crew loads and delivers, no cross-loading, itemized inventory verified on arrival.
Is white glove moving the same as a full-service move?+
They overlap but are not identical. A full-service move includes packing, moving, and unpacking. White glove adds a level of care beyond that: custom crating, itemized inventory, blanket wrap on every piece, executive/luxury-item expertise, and placement services. Every white glove move is full-service, but not every full-service move meets the white-glove standard.
How much lead time do you need for a white glove move?+
For local white-glove moves, 2 weeks of lead time is ideal. For long-distance or estate-level moves, 3-4 weeks is better. We've done shorter-notice moves when custom crating isn't required - just call us and we'll tell you what's possible.
Do you handle commercial white glove moves (offices, showrooms)?+
Yes. Law firms, executive offices, showrooms, art galleries, and boutique retail spaces are common commercial white-glove clients for us. Same level of care applied to office furniture, files, art, and displays. We can also handle after-hours or weekend moves to minimize business disruption.
Are you licensed and insured for high-value items?+
Yes. Little Fellas Moving is fully licensed and insured with cargo coverage. For very high-value single items (art over $10,000, wine cellars, luxury vehicles), we can also arrange a supplemental insurance rider - just tell us during the quote.
