Pricing

What sets the cost of a local move.

Local moves are billed hourly with a 3-hour minimum. The total comes down to how long the job takes:

See all starting prices →
Crew size 2 movers and a truck is the standard. Bigger homes may need more movers to keep the hours down.
Drive time Time on the road between pickup and drop-off counts toward the hourly total.
Packing on the day Boxes packed and sealed before the crew arrives move faster than items packed on the spot.
Extra stops Picking up from a storage unit or a second address adds drive and loading time.

What counts as a local move?

A move within the same city or region where the two addresses are under 50 km apart. Longer moves are priced as a flat rate instead of by the hour.

Can you move me today?

Sometimes. Same-day and next-day moves depend on which crews are free. Call us with your addresses and home size and we’ll tell you right away.

When does the hourly clock start?

When the crew arrives at your pickup address. It stops when the last item is placed at your new home. There is a 3-hour minimum.

Is there a charge for stairs or elevators?

No. Stairs and elevators are included in the hourly rate, and there is no fuel surcharge on local moves.
