Moving
Estimate
For Professional Use
Powered By: MovingCare.com
Most movers offer two types of moving estimates,
non-binding and binding. A non-binding agreement
is not a bid or a contract but an approximate cost
of the items that are to be shipped. It is based
on the actual weight of your shipment. A binding
agreement means that you are obligated to pay the
price that was originally set in the estimate whether
your shipment weighs more or less.

A
Moving Estimate is generally based on the amount
of items, in weight, which you are shipping, the
distance you are shipping them, and any extra services
you may require such as packing, boxes, or storage.
The time of year you are moving also plays a big
role on the moving estimate, as movers are usually
busier in the summer months. A moving estimate
does not necessarily mean the exact price of what
you will pay in the final bill, but an estimate.
Obtaining a Moving Estimate
The best type of moving estimate you can get is the
not to exceed estimate. It is based upon an accurate
and complete list of items that you expect to have
moved. This type of estimate gives you a little
bit of leeway if you decide to bring extra items
with you on the day of your move. Although, you
will be charged more for those items.
Moving estimates are very essential for long distance
moves. Long distance moves are mainly based on weight
and distance, time isn't much of an issue, with local
moves, time is everything. Heavy traffic and bad
weather prevent local movers from providing this
type of estimate.
