How Much Do Movers Cost?

Published February 6, 2014

Naturally you want to know how much your move will cost. Trying to answer how much movers cost is like trying to answer what a dinner bill will run you. Fortunately, there are just 3 main factors that will contribute to the cost of your move:

1. What services will you need? Do you need help with packing, loading, driving or will you do it yourself?

2. Where are you moving to and where are you leaving from? The farther away your move, the more pricey.

3. How will you be charged? Will there be any additional fees for overtime or gas? Companies can charge, hourly, a flat rate, by the mile or by the pound.

The one true way to find out is by getting a quick moving estimate.
