What Are Moving Estimates?

Moving estimates are like test drives. Are they helpful? Yes, definitely. Should you rely entirely on them when deciding how to move? No.

Moving companies offer moving estimates to get you in the door, but those estimates are never final prices. If they were final prices, they wouldn’t be called estimates.

So, before you go ahead and sign a moving contract based on a nice-looking estimate, make sure the estimate is trustworthy by doing or more of the following:

  1. Getting an in-home estimate
  2. Asking the right questions
  3. Getting a binding not-to-exceed moving price
  4. Creating a rock-solid moving contract
