FAQ

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.

All movers are legally required to offer a minimum level of insurance coverage. Unfortunately, this amounts to about $0.60 per pound of items lost, damaged, or destroyed.

Did your 4 pound Macbook get broken in transit? You're only gonna get $2.40. Fortunately, iMoving can connect you with movers who offer full value protection. This means if something gets damaged or broken, you'll be reimbursed the actual price.

To prepare for a move in Charleston, we recommend taking a few important steps. First, make sure you've got a job lined up at your destination. Secondly, downsize as much as possible before shopping for movers.

If you're doing your own packing, box up your stuff starting with the least-used items, and always pack an essentials bag so you aren't stuck rooting through boxes for your toothbrush or clean underwear.

A Charleston move can cost you anywhere from $378 to $7200 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.

We recommend tipping between 15% and 20% of the total cost of the move, to be divided up between your entire moving team.

Don't forget the driver, either! In the moving industry, tipping is usually accepted and expected.

While there are some rare companies that don't accept a gratuity, it's a good idea to have your wallet at the ready just in case.
