Arizona State University’s Tempe campus had 51,200 students in fall 2026 campus immersion enrollment, far more than any other ASU campus, so packing help here runs on a school calendar. Our professional packers in Tempe work room by room, whether the job is a shared apartment, a family home or a small office, and your day stays your own.
Full packing or select rooms
Our fragile item packing service in Tempe covers glassware, antiques, artwork and bulky furniture. Maple-Ash, west of ASU, has the highest concentration of historic properties in Tempe, and older homes there often hold decades of keepsakes. You can hand us those rooms and pack the everyday kitchen yourself.
Sturdy boxes, paper and bubble wrap
We arrive with sturdy boxes, packing paper, bubble wrap and tape, so you do not have to buy supplies before a residence hall move-out or a whole-house pack. Tell us how many rooms you need packed and we plan the supplies from there.
We unpack and place everything
When we reach the new place, our crew unpacks your boxes and puts items where you want them. Leftover rigid Styrofoam shipping and packing material can go to the Tempe Household Products Collection Center, which does not take packing peanuts, so bag the peanuts separately. Tell us which room to finish first.
Packing Services in Tempe Shaped by Your Street and Building
Residents of the Greater Maple Ash area, including the Mitchell Park neighborhood association, have pushed to preserve historic homes and large lots. Large lots often come with garages and sheds to pack along with the house, so tell us about outbuildings, gate codes and elevator reservations when you ask for a quote.
Fragile Items and Furniture, Packed Properly
Our home move packing service in Tempe puts glassware and antiques in sturdy boxes with packing paper, wraps framed art in bubble wrap, and pads bulky furniture before it leaves the room. Heavy items go in smaller boxes so the carry down stairs or a long driveway stays manageable.
What Stays With You and What We Pack
Set aside what you will carry yourself: documents, medications, and anything heat sensitive like candles or vinyl records. The National Weather Service calls excessive heat the number-one weather-related killer in Arizona, so carry those items with you rather than leaving them in a garage or a parked vehicle. We pack everything else, room by room, and label each box by room.
Unpacked and Placed Where You Want It
Packing and unpacking in Tempe often follows the school calendar. Parts of the city sit in the Kyrene School District (K to 8), while the Tempe Elementary and Tempe Union High districts cover most of it, so families usually want kids’ rooms and the kitchen set up first. Tell us the order and our crew unpacks and places items room by room.

How Our Packers Plan Your Job
Packing starts with listening: what is fragile, what stays, and where things go on the other end. Tell us about stairs, elevators and gates, and about any spring move near Tempe Diablo Stadium, the Angels’ spring training home since 1993, so we can plan the route.
Corporate and Home Packing in Tempe
Our corporate packing service in Tempe handles office furniture, equipment, files and electronics, and our crew can unpack and set things up at the new space. Home jobs follow the same room-by-room method, from a studio apartment to a multi-room house, with unpacking placed where you choose.
Tempe Packing Services That Follow the Academic Year
ASU’s fall 2026 residence hall move-in for the Tempe campus ran August 15 to 16, and spring residents not staying for summer had to check out by 12 p.m. on May 9, 2026. Tempe packing services work best around fixed deadlines like those, so tell us your checkout time first.

Every item you own carries meaning, and our crew handles each one that way. From ASU-area apartments to South Tempe homes, we bring the same careful attention to every box we pack or open. Tell us what your move looks like, and we’ll build a plan around your schedule, your belongings, and your peace of mind. Learn more about our packing services in Tempe.
A Crew That Plans Around Tempe
Our crew plans around the street, not just the boxes. Maple-Ash’s area plan calls for maintaining flood irrigation, so check whether your yard may be wet on an irrigation day and tell us where we should load. One call about parking and gates saves time on moving day.
From Student Apartments to Family Homes in Tempe
Student moves and family moves ask different things of a crew. A student apartment near Arizona State University is often a smaller job on a hard checkout deadline, while a family home may mean several bedrooms, a garage and a kids’ schedule. We pack to the size of the job, and unpack to your layout.

FAQs
Questions Tempe Customers Ask About Packing and Unpacking
Yes. Packing and unpacking are core services, so tell us your checkout time when you ask for a quote. For the spring 2026 term, ASU residents not staying for summer had to check out of their halls by 12 p.m. on May 9, 2026, and donation drop-off started April 22, so a fixed noon deadline is what we pack and load around.
Rigid Styrofoam shipping and packing material is accepted at Tempe's Household Products Collection Center, but packing peanuts are not, so bag the peanuts apart from the foam. For bulky leftovers and unwanted items, True Move also offers pickup and haul off, so ask us about it when you book your pack.
The method stays the same, but the scope can grow. Maple-Ash has the highest concentration of historic properties in Tempe, and Greater Maple Ash residents, including the Mitchell Park neighborhood association, have pushed to preserve historic homes and large lots. Tell us about antiques, garages and sheds so the fragile item packing is planned room by room before moving day.
Tempe Diablo Stadium has been the Los Angeles Angels' spring training home since 1993, so give us your exact address and date if you are moving near it in spring. We use that to plan the route and where the truck loads, then pack the rooms in an order that matches the loading plan.
Yes. You can book full packing or only certain items, such as glassware, antiques, artwork or furniture. For example, hand us the keepsake and fragile rooms and pack clothes yourself. True Move does not do shared or consolidated loads, so what we pack is moved as your own job, not combined with another household's.
