Blue Dolly vs Two Men and a Truck
Dolly
Local movers, Minneapolis & St. Paul
A Twin Cities moving company that quotes a flat price — before move day
Blue Dolly Moving is a locally operated Minneapolis and St. Paul moving company serving the entire Twin Cities metro. Every move is priced as a binding, all-inclusive flat fee — truck, mileage, fuel, blankets, shrink wrap, disassembly and reassembly are already in the number. No hourly meter, no surprise line items on move day.
Our crews are background-checked, W-2 employees who move the metro daily, so they know the difference between a third-floor Uptown walk-up, a Summit Avenue Victorian and a Maple Grove four-bedroom with a full basement. Blue Dolly is licensed and insured for local Minnesota and interstate moves, and we never hand your move to a broker or subcontractor.
Twin Cities apartment & condo moves
Studios to 3-bedroom units, including buildings that require a certificate of insurance, a reserved elevator or a loading-dock window. We handle the paperwork with your building manager.
Minneapolis & St. Paul office moves
After-hours and weekend commercial moves so your team works Monday morning. Desks, IT gear, files and conference furniture disassembled, padded and reassembled on site.
Packing and climate-controlled storage
Full or partial packing, and heated storage between closings — a real need during Minnesota winters. Add it to the same flat-fee quote instead of hiring a second vendor.
Long-distance moves out of Minnesota
Licensed and insured for interstate moves with our own trucks and W-2 crews. No brokers, no subcontractors, no reload onto a stranger's truck.
Where we move in the Twin Cities
Minneapolis movers
Uptown, North Loop, Northeast, Linden Hills, Powderhorn and Downtown. Walk-up apartments, skyway high-rises, alley-only loading and winter parking permits are everyday work for our crews.
St. Paul movers
Cathedral Hill, Highland Park, Summit-University, Como and Downtown. Narrow Victorian staircases, tight driveways and historic-district access rules are planned into the quote before move day.
Bloomington movers & the south metro
Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina, Eagan, Burnsville and Lakeville. Suburban single-family homes, townhomes and 55+ communities, with I-494 and I-35W timing built into the crew schedule.
Maple Grove movers & the north metro
Maple Grove, Plymouth, Minnetonka, Woodbury, Maplewood and Blaine. Larger homes, garages and storage rooms — where flat-fee pricing matters most because hourly clocks run longest.
Also moving in Edina, Plymouth, Eden Prairie, Woodbury, Eagan and across Minnesota.
Neighbors search for us by city, and we cover all of them: movers Minneapolis and moving companies Saint Paul MN, movers Lakeville MN, movers Eagan MN, movers Roseville MN, Burnsville and movers Faribault MN. Whether you call it moving Twin Cities, moving companies in Minneapolis or simply a Minnesota moving company, it's the same flat-fee crew — plus packing services in Minneapolis and furniture movers near you when you only need a few heavy pieces handled.
Real Twin Cities moves
What moving in Minneapolis and St. Paul actually looks like
Most quotes go wrong because the mover never asked about the stairs, the elevator reservation or the alley. Blue Dolly prices these details up front, so the flat fee you approve is the number you pay — in Uptown, on Summit Avenue, in a downtown skyway tower or a Dinkytown studio.
Third-floor walk-ups in Uptown, Whittier & Northeast
Classic 1920s Minneapolis fourplexes on Bryant, Colfax and Hennepin rarely have elevators, and the stairwells turn hard at the landing. We send a larger crew instead of billing you extra hours for it, hoist oversized couches and mattresses where the turn won't clear, and shuttle from the nearest legal parking when the alley is the only approach. A typical Uptown 1-bedroom walk-up move runs a flat $650–$950 all in.
Downtown high-rises, skyway buildings & loading docks
Buildings like Nic on Fifth, 4Marq, The Marquette and the Lowry Hill towers require a certificate of insurance, a reserved freight elevator and a booked dock window — usually 8am–12pm or after 5pm. We file the COI with your property manager, pad the elevator, and schedule the crew around the dock slot. In connected skyway buildings we stage carts through the skyway level when street-side loading is restricted during Nicollet Mall events or snow emergencies.
St. Paul Victorians, duplexes & historic districts
Summit Avenue and Cathedral Hill homes come with narrow original staircases, tight newel posts and doorways under 30 inches. Crews measure before move day and plan door removal or a window hoist rather than discovering the problem with your armoire halfway up. In Historic Hill and Irvine Park we pull the right permits for curbside truck parking so nobody gets ticketed while we load.
U of M, St. Thomas, Macalester & Hamline student moves
Dinkytown, Como, Prospect Park, Marcy-Holmes and the Grand Avenue corridor turn over almost entirely between mid-May and September 1. We run compact 2-mover crews for dorms, studios and shared houses, offer summer storage between leases, and book the August 31 / September 1 rush weeks early because that's when every truck in the Twin Cities is spoken for. Student studio moves start at a flat $450.
Winter moves, snow emergencies & heated storage
Between November and March we plan for plowed-in driveways, declared snow emergency routes and salt on hardwood floors. Crews carry floor runners and extra shrink wrap, and we hold furniture in heated storage when a closing slips — leather, wood and electronics don't sit in an unheated unit through a Minnesota January.
Recent Minneapolis & St. Paul move examples
