Estimate Guide

This guide is based upon over a decade of moving experience. Its purpose is to help you estimate the approximate time and the number of movers its going to take to move your belongings. Nothing is exact however this guide should greatly improve your ability to plan and prepare for what type of day you’re going to have. As you look through, the point is to see your move from 360 degrees. In order to estimate properly you must factor in as much as possible. Factors to think about include but are not limited to:

• Amount of furniture - Stairs - Long Walks - Furniture disassembly and assembly - Drive time

• Elevators - Parking - Access in and out of doors - Extremely Heavy Items - Weather -

• Closing times and document signing

Studio/1bedroom (One Truck) - A normal 1bedroom is a 2-4hr job for 2men. Even if its on a 3rd floor a normal 1bedroom is 2-4hrs.

2Bedroom (One Truck) - A normal 2bedroom is a three man job and would be 3-5hrs. A 3rd man is great for elevators, long walks and long flights of stairs because you can create a very efficient chain of work which helps a move go smooth.

3bedroom (Usually 1 truck but possibly 2) - A normal 3bedroom is a 3-4 man 6-8hr job. If you have a three bedroom that doesn’t have much furniture don’t worry. You are only charged for the time you use. If we can get the job done under estimate then that is exactly what will happen! This information is simply used as a a guide for full homes.

4bedroom + (1-3Trucks depending on size. Usually 2) - 4bedroom homes and larger are usually 4-6men 2truck jobs that go 8-10hrs. On most 4bedrooms and larger we would request an in-home estimate so that we can give you a written account of what it will take to move the home. During the estimate we can also gauge the man power you need to complete your job in 8hrs if possible. (We do many jobs that are 8hrs or longer we just attempt to keep jobs 8hrs or under if possible to save the customer from overtime fees.)
