Local Moving
Local moving is generally done on a price-per-hour basis. The
all-inclusive price includes a fully qualified professional moving
crew, as well as a furniture van fully equipped with all the blankets,
dollies and special tools necessary to safely and swiftly complete
your move.
The hourly rate starts when the truck arrives at your residence,
runs through the loading of the truck, continues through the drive
to your new home, and ends when the truck is empty and any required
set-up is complete.
Hourly rates are used for local moving because so much of the
time that a move takes is determined by how well prepared you
are for the move, as well as the access provided for the movers.
A fully prepared home with good access is moved much quicker than
if you are still packing when the movers arrive, or if we have
a 100 yard walk into your new home because the driveway has not
been poured yet.
Remember; although we are a full service mover, the more you are
willing to do, the less you will pay. Here's just one example:
if you are willing to take apart the beds and reassemble them
at the new house yourself, you could save as much as 20 - 45 minutes
on your move time.
Average Local Move Times
1 Bedroom Apartment = 2 - 4 hours
2 Bedroom Condo = 3 - 6 hours
3 Bedroom House = 5 - 8 hours
Remember, these are average move times only.
Travel Time
Travel time is a flat-rate fee or time, based on the average driving
time from our office to and from your area. Half this fee allows
our truck to get from our office to your home to begin the move.
The other half covers the return back to our office at the completion
of your move. Travel time does not include the driving time between
loading and unloading. This time is included in your normal hourly
charge.
Travel time will be added to your hourly charges at the completion
of your move.
