Nothing gets scheduled at G&B until Vernon Bilodeau has looked at the job and put a real number on it. That habit comes straight from a mill floor: you don’t start a run without knowing what it takes to finish it right, and a household move gets the same treatment.
Five things that happen on every job
- A quote in writing after Vernon sees the home, whether that’s in person, by video call, or from a set of photos you send over
- Blankets go around each piece before it leaves the room, not somewhere between the door and the truck
- Dale plans the drive against whatever US-51 and I-39 look like that particular morning
- Bed frames and dressers come apart before they leave your old place, no separate fee for the reassembly on the other end
- Stair rails, door casings, and tight hallway corners stay covered from load-in to load-out
A typical Marathon County move day
- Confirming the details the evening before Parking, driveway length, and start time get nailed down whether the address sits in a Rib Mountain subdivision or an older neighborhood in Wisconsin Rapids with cars parked along both curbs.
- One room finished before the next begins The crew clears a full room and carries it out before opening a second one, so boxes never get mixed between rooms.
- Weather gets factored in ahead of time A slick patch on WI-29 or a slow crawl through Rothschild traffic is something the crew plans for the night before, not something they hit cold.
- Your labels set the unloading order Whatever room a box is marked for is where it lands, and anything disassembled goes back together immediately.
Rural driveways and downtown loading zones both get priced upfront
A quarter-mile of gravel outside Athens, a steep grade on Rib Mountain, or a no-parking stretch near downtown Wausau all factor into your number during the walkthrough, long before anything’s locked onto the calendar. Wrapping supplies and crating are a separate line — see the packing page for that.
Local move pricing
Two movers at $105 an hour handles most studios and one-bedrooms. Step up to three movers at $140 an hour for a standard two-bedroom household, and four movers at $182 an hour once the job runs bigger than that.

Living in a building near downtown or out toward Plover? Check the apartment page first, since stairwells and elevators change the plan. For everything else, call our office with both addresses and Dale usually has your written number back the same day.
