Chicopee is a renting city and always has been. The housing went up around the mills, three deckers and multi family blocks, and most of it has no elevator and a staircase that turns at the landing.
That is the whole shape of this job. The contents of a two bedroom apartment are not remarkable. Getting them down three flights of a 1905 staircase with a turn in it is what you are actually paying for.
Expect $400 to $1,200 for a full apartment. A studio or a small one bedroom comes in below that, a packed three bedroom above it. Floor level moves the number more than square footage does, which surprises people.
Say which floor on the first call
First floor with a door onto the street is straightforward. Second floor is ordinary. Third floor with a narrow turning staircase changes the crew size and the time, and a quote given without that information will not survive the arrival. It is the single most useful sentence you can say on the phone.

Parking is a real constraint here
Streets in Chicopee Center, Cabotville and Willimansett are narrow, parked solid on both sides, and were laid out for far fewer cars than live on them now. A truck that has to stop a hundred feet from the door adds a walk to every single trip.
If you have a driveway, a rear lot or an alley, say so. If the building has a back door onto a yard, that is often better than the front. Winter makes it worse, because snow banks eat the only spots that would have worked.
Some buildings also want notice for a move out, or restrict which hours a truck can be at the door. Check with the landlord before booking rather than after.
What comes out of an apartment
A sofa that will not go back down the stairs it came up. A mattress, which carries a fee. A television. Kitchen contents. Bags of clothing, which have to go to textile recycling under the state ban. Often a window air conditioner, which holds refrigerant and needs recovery the same as a fridge. Tenants leave more behind than owners do, because the alternative is carrying it down themselves.
How Apartment Cleanout Actually Goes
Floor and staircase
Which floor, elevator or not, and whether the stairs turn. That is the quote.
Check with the landlord
Some buildings want notice or limit the hours a truck can sit at the door.
Route walked, then priced
They look at the stairs and the parking before the contents. That is the right order.
Carried down and loaded
Sorted as it goes. Anything usable set aside for donation.
Swept
Left ready for the next tenant or for paint.
What Can Delay It
- A third floor turning staircase nobody mentioned
- Nowhere to park within reach of the door
- A sofa that has to be cut apart to come down
- A cellar storage bin that was not part of the quote
What Speeds It Up
- Saying the floor and the staircase up front
- Reserving a spot out front, or clearing the driveway
- Photos of the stairs, which nobody thinks to send
