Pin down a signed Cottonwood figure

Marisol writes back with the North Desert Moving figure inside the same business hour on most weekdays — the paper you hold beforehand is the paper the crew tallies when the last carton hits the mesa-ranch floor.

The details you drop in here land on the Old Town Cottonwood dispatch board and stay there — used strictly to size your Verde Valley haul, kept off any lead-broker roster, never handed to a paid-referral desk, never dropped into a marketing sequence.

Yard storage between Verde Valley closings

The closing-date gap is the most common storage call we take. You’re out of the Cottonwood Ranch townhome Friday, the mesa-top house you bought closes a week later. North Desert Moving keeps secure storage at our Old Town Main Street yard for exactly this — load out, hold for a few days or a few months, deliver when you’re ready.

Storage prices by unit size, roughly a 1-bed apartment per unit, two units for a 2-bed, three for a 3-bed ranch. We charge $105 per unit per month with the first two weeks free on any move we also load and deliver. Cargo coverage rides at $0.60/lb released-value standard, with up to $1,000,000 per shipment available.

Verde Valley storage examples

Move Units Per-month rate
1-bed apartment hold 1 unit $105
2-bed condo between closings 2 units $205
3-bed stucco ranch between sales 3 units $305
4-5 bed / rural acreage long hold 4-5 units $400 – $500
Sedona-corridor commuter seasonal hold 2-3 units $205 – $305

Load-in and load-out crew time prices on the regular $159/hr 2-mover or $209/hr 3-mover basis, flat-rated before we start.

Why yard storage beats self-storage for a move

A self-storage unit means paying movers to load a truck, drive across town, and unload into a unit, then pay another crew (or yourself) to reverse it at the new house. Our Old Town yard means we load you once, hold it, and the same load rolls onto the truck headed to the new place. One handle, not three. Pair with residential or long-distance; pianos and gun safes get their own racked space — see specialty.

What is folded into your Cottonwood, AZ flat rate

  • First two weeks free with any move we load and deliver
  • Units sealed and inventoried — no shared-bin scramble

What will it run?

Two polos plus the rig running the clock at $159/hr, or shut the meter down entirely with a countersigned Verde Valley flat figure that folds the whole job onto one page

Both rates already cover pads, dollies, shrink film, hand-carry gear for Jerome's switchback streets, and whatever Certificate of Insurance a Sedona-corridor or Verde Santa Fe building wants on file. Add a third mover and the crew rate becomes $209/hr.

“Tanner and Silas were the best! Extremely professional and took the greatest care with our belongings and during periods of rain they made sure everything was protected. They were mindful of the new carpet and made sure it wasn’t messed up in any way. Thanks Tanner and Silas for an excellent relocation experience!”

Questions on this service

How does yard storage save money over self-storage?
You only pay movers to load once. Your load waits at our Old Town yard, then rolls onto the truck for delivery — no second loading crew, no second truck rental.
Can I access my unit to grab something I forgot?
Yes — schedule it with Marisol a day ahead. She pulls your unit to the dock for you.
How long can I store?
Anywhere from a few days to a year. Most Verde Valley storage runs two to ten weeks while a sale closes.
Is the yard secure through monsoon season?
Yes — covered, secured storage year-round, built for the July-through-September dust and rain without exception.
Will the same crew that loaded me also deliver me out?
Whenever scheduling allows, yes. Grant on dispatch tries to keep the same crew chief on both ends.
The three-step Verde Valley playbook

What booking a Cottonwood haul through North Desert Moving actually looks like

1

Message the room count and a date

Ping Marisol with bedroom count, both Verde Valley addresses (flag it early if either end sits up a Jerome switchback or over Mingus Mountain) and whichever weekday you are shooting for — a couple of typing minutes, nothing owed, nothing charged to see the number.

2

You get a dated, binding number

Colton takes what came out of the walk-through, puts his signature on it, and dates it the morning of the lift. Every detail from that call — Jerome switchback carry included — is already priced in, so nothing new shows up once the crew starts loading.

3

The North Desert Moving rig lands on your driveway

Full-time Old Town Cottonwood payroll movers in matching North Desert Moving polos pull up inside the booked window, and the exact five names stay through the last carton set inside the Verde Santa Fe mesa rental or the Old Town adobe storefront great room.

Licensed in Arizona

Arizona household-goods carrier permit licensed, insured & owner-run — on every Cottonwood job

US DOT & MC authorityActive federal authority stands behind us the moment your load leaves Cottonwood, AZ — south on AZ-260 and I-17 toward Phoenix, north on AZ-89A to Flagstaff, or over Mingus Mountain to Prescott.
Arizona household-goods carrier permitAn Arizona household-goods carrier permit sits on file with the state, alongside the US DOT and MC authority above — we are properly licensed to move Arizona households, not a broker farming the job out to whoever picks up the load.
$1,000,000 cargo coverageEvery carton, sectional and headboard riding a North Desert Moving rig out of Cottonwood sits under a seven-figure cargo umbrella from the yard onward; full-value valuation adds on top whenever an Old Town estate collection or a Jerome hillside piano wants heavier bookkeeping.
Workers’ comp & liabilityEvery uniformed crew member punching the clock for North Desert Moving is enrolled in active Arizona workers’ comp plus general liability — a strained back inside your mesa ranch, a slip on a Jerome switchback walkway, a scrape moving out of an Old Town storefront gets billed straight to our policy, not the homeowner.
