Short-haul work fills the daily board at A+ Don’s Moving. Our W-2 crews roll out of Spring Grove Avenue at first light and spend the day inside the I-275 loop, which is why a same-day or next-day relocation between Over-the-Rhine and Hyde Park rarely turns into a fire drill. We are a licensed Ohio household-goods carrier with our own trucks and uniformed staff — never a referral network or a phone-only broker.
Where our Queen City crews work
We cover quick jobs throughout the Cincinnati metro — UC and Xavier rentals near Clifton, established Hamilton County subdivisions in Blue Ash and Montgomery, downtown condos along The Banks and Fountain Square, and the smaller suburbs listed on our Hamilton, Warren, and Butler County map. If both addresses sit inside the I-275 loop or its immediate ring, the job runs on one hourly or flat rate.
- Over-the-Rhine, Fountain Square, The Banks, and Mt. Adams hillside Victorians inside the urban core
- Mason, West Chester, and Liberty Township along the I-71 and I-75 corridors
- Norwood, Mariemont, and Madeira through the inner east Hamilton ring
- Springdale, Forest Park, and Sharonville west toward the Cross County Highway
How a Cincinnati job is priced and run
You choose the rate. Hourly suits unpredictable scopes; a flat written number locks the price before a carton leaves the finished basement. The truck, pads, and dollies travel either way — no fuel line, no equipment fee bolted on at the end.
| Crew | Hourly rate | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $115/hr | Studios, one-bedrooms, light loads |
| 3 movers + truck | $155/hr | 2-3 bedroom homes with finished basements or hillside stairs |
Mid-morning winter starts
From December through February, a January ice storm can glaze the climbs up to Mt. Adams overnight, and tornado-season rain hits Hamilton County hard in April. Winter slots roll out after Cross County and Columbia Parkway have been salted — easier on the box truck, safer for the hardwood inside.
Who books short-haul work with us
Most callers are P&G transferees moving closer to downtown HQ, Christ Hospital and UC Health clinicians shifting north toward Blue Ash, and longtime homeowners trading a finished basement for a Mason ranch. UC and Xavier students cycle through our apartment relocation service, while households leaving for Indianapolis or Columbus pick up the long-distance lanes. The crew that loads in Cincinnati is the crew that unloads.
- Walkthrough or free quote form — tell us room count, finished-basement load, stairwell, and any heavy pieces.
- Written rate — we send back an hourly figure or a flat number with the start window.
- Move day — the uniformed crew pads furniture, protects hardwood, and confirms placement before they leave.
What Our Cincinnati Metro Crew Handles On The Job
- Box truck, blankets, and dollies on every Cincinnati job
- Uniformed, background-checked W-2 crew (never day labor)
- Floor runners and door-frame guards at both addresses
- Disassembly and reassembly of standard beds and tables
- Choice of $115/hr two-mover rate or a flat written price
- $1M cargo coverage included at no extra charge
What It Costs Around Cincinnati
A two-mover team runs $115/hr with a two-hour minimum; a three-mover team is $155/hr, and bigger Cincinnati jobs are pinned down as one flat written figure before our truck rolls off Spring Grove Avenue.
Two of our own W-2 movers, a padded box truck, four-wheelers, shrink wrap and quilted blankets — the entire Cincinnati job folded into a single A+ Don’s Moving rate, with no handoff to a third-party van line at any point in the day.
