We have a 2 hour minimum and charge in 15 minute increments after the first two hours, and have no mileage fees/materials charges. When we arrive at your home the time starts, and it ends when we finish the delivery. If your move is located more than 15 miles from our shop, we do charge drive time. Our movers are on salary, so won't milk time. (They will be paid the same no matter how long your move takes) We have put together a quick estimate on how long it takes to complete an average move. Please keep in mind that these are just a rough estimate (and the actual cost of your move cannot be determined due to furniture disassembly and reassembly factors). Many of our customers' moves take less time than the listed quotes. Rather than have you surprised and dissatisfied in the end, we will give you an honest estimate up front.
