What’s the difference between traditional and white glove packing services? When you partner with a white glove moving company, you’ll work with an experienced team of movers that are specially trained to relocate delicate and high-value items. White glove movers offer custom moving services that are designed with the safety and security of your home in mind.
White-glove moving is a premium, “full-service” level of relocation where the crew handles the move with extra care, extra protection, and extra setup—so you don’t have to. It goes beyond standard loading and unloading by focusing on detail, cleanliness, and completion: your home is protected during the move, items are handled with higher-touch procedures, and many clients choose white-glove because they want their space move-in ready as quickly as possible.
Here’s what “white-glove” typically includes (and what you should confirm before booking):
1) Enhanced protection for your home
White-glove crews commonly use stronger protection measures than basic service, such as:
Floor runners or protective coverings in high-traffic paths
Door jamb, banister, and wall corner protection
Extra padding and careful navigation for tight hallways, elevators, and staircases
This is especially valuable in condos, newly renovated homes, and properties with delicate finishes.
2) High-care packing and specialty item handling
White-glove service usually involves professionally trained packing with premium materials and techniques, especially for:
Art, mirrors, and fragile décor
TVs, computers, and electronics
Crystal, china, and glassware
Musical instruments
High-end furniture (wood, lacquer, leather, glass tops)
If you have “problem items” (marble tables, oversized mirrors, antiques), white-glove is often the safest approach.
3) Furniture disassembly and reassembly (not just “moving it”)
With standard moving, furniture might be placed in rooms and left as-is. White-glove is more focused on “completion,” often including:
Bed frame disassembly and reassembly
Dining tables (legs removed/reinstalled)
Sectionals, shelving, and larger pieces that require careful breakdown
Basic placement to match your preferred layout (when requested)
The goal is that you can actually live comfortably the same day, not spend the night hunting for bolts.
4) Unpacking and debris removal (the “clean finish”)
Many white-glove packages include some level of:
Unpacking essentials (kitchen, closets, bedrooms)
Removing packing paper, boxes, and debris
Light organizing by room (depending on scope)
This is the part clients love most: your home doesn’t look like a warehouse of cardboard.
5) Installation-style add-ons (varies by mover)
Depending on the provider, white-glove can also include optional services like:
Hanging mirrors and artwork
Installing TV mounts (some movers partner with installers)
Reconnecting appliances (where permitted)
Crating for high-value items
Because these can involve licensing/third parties, it’s important to confirm exactly what’s included.
6) A more managed, concierge-style experience
White-glove often comes with tighter coordination, such as:
Dedicated point of contact
Confirmed delivery window planning
Clear room-by-room labeling and placement instructions
Extra documentation for high-value inventories
Yes. Regular moving is designed to safely transport your belongings from Point A to Point B with standard protection and standard labor. White-glove moving is a premium service level that adds higher-touch handling, stronger home protection, and a “move-in-ready” finish (setup, unpacking support, and detailed placement).
Here’s the difference in real-world terms.
Regular service is ideal when you want professional transport and basic setup without the extras.
Loading, transportation, and unloading
Your items are wrapped/blanketed and secured for transit, then delivered and placed into rooms.
Basic furniture handling
Common items may be disassembled as needed for safe movement and reassembled if it’s part of the move plan, but the focus is speed and safe delivery rather than full home setup.
Standard protection practices
Movers usually use moving blankets, stretch wrap, and basic protection in high-traffic areas, but they may not include full floor/wall/doorway protection unless requested.
Limited unpacking
Regular moves typically end with items delivered into rooms. Unpacking, organizing, and debris removal are usually optional add-ons.
White-glove is for clients who want the move handled with extra care and extra completion, especially for high-value homes, luxury furniture, or tight timelines.
Enhanced protection for your home
White-glove crews typically use more robust safeguards such as floor protection, doorway and banister protection, and corner/wall protection. This matters most in condos, newly renovated spaces, and homes with delicate finishes.
Higher-detail wrapping and handling
White-glove focuses on preventing scuffs, pressure marks, and handling damage with upgraded materials and more time per piece, especially for wood finishes, glass tops, artwork, antiques, and fragile décor.
More complete disassembly and reassembly
Instead of “move it and place it,” white-glove commonly emphasizes “set it back up.” Beds, tables, sectionals, shelving, and complex furniture are handled more comprehensively so the home becomes livable faster.
Placement, setup, and (often) unpacking support
White-glove is about the finish. Depending on your package, this can include unpacking essentials, putting items away by room, and removing packing debris so you’re not left with stacks of boxes.
Concierge-level coordination
White-glove moves often include tighter communication, detailed room-by-room planning, and special handling instructions so delivery day feels organized instead of chaotic.
It’s completely up to you! Many households do get by just fine with a standard move—but this choice also comes at the potential cost of more effort, more time, and more stress. If you have the resources and would rather not even think about the moving details yourself, then a white-glove move will be the best choice you could possibly make.
A white-glove move is generally the preferred service if you’re moving delicate or irreplaceable items, like:
