The price was $1,000 more than expected. the loading took a lot of time but part of that was probably on us. And the pick up guy should have explained the increase of the cost. The delivery went very well. I would recommend the delivery team.

FAQ

How Much Will a Rochester Move Cost Me?

A Rochester move can cost you anywhere from $178 to $7900 and beyond. It all comes down to how much you’re moving, and how far you’re traveling.

Keep in mind, local movers charge per mover, per hour (with about 2 movers per room), and long distance movers charge by weight (or volume) and miles.

What is a Moving Shuttle?

When you move to a more built-up or urban area, chances are they won't let you park an entire semi truck in front of your apartment.

Your movers will have to park the main truck at a staging area, and use a smaller box truck or van to transport your stuff to (and from) the trailer. This is called a moving shuttle, and the inconvenience comes at a price. Blame your city council.

How Can I Tell if a Mover is Legit?

Movers need to have an official Department of Transportation (DOT) number, which you should be able to find on their website.

If a moving company handles long distance moves that cross state lines, they'll also need a Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) number.

Don't forget to check reviews and look for any insurance info they may feature on their website.

Do I Need Moving Insurance?

It's always a good idea to get insurance, and in the interest of being responsible, we're not going to tell you to skip it.

However, if you're feeling risky and you're only moving a couple blocks (without anything fragile thrown in the mix), you may be able to get away with the basic coverage offered by your movers.

What is a Binding Estimate?

In the moving industry, there are three types of estimates: binding, non-binding, and non-binding, not-too-exceed.

When you get a binding estimate, it means you’re getting a flat rate. The amount on your quote is the amount you’ll pay. Binding estimates are a good sign you’re dealing with a reputable mover.

Non-binding estimates can be adjusted before, during and after a move, but non-binding, not-to-exceed estimates can only be adjusted downwards from your initial price.
