How Moving Costs Are Calculated
Local moves are charged by the hour for the crew and truck, from the time the crew arrives until the last item is placed, plus a fixed travel time of 1 hour. The number of movers depends on the size of your home: smaller homes usually need 2 movers, while larger homes move faster and more safely with 3 or 4.
Long distance moves (over 100 km) combine loading and unloading time with a transport charge based on distance. Packing materials and special items like pianos are added separately, so you only pay for what you use.

FAQ
Moving Cost FAQ
How much do movers cost per hour?
Our hourly rates include the truck and crew: $129/h for 2 movers, $169/h for 3 movers and $209/h for 4 movers, plus applicable taxes. Local moves have a 3-hour minimum and 1 hour of travel time.
How much does it cost to move a 2-bedroom apartment?
A typical local 2-bedroom move with 3 movers takes about 5.5–7 hours and costs roughly $930–$1,180 before tax. Stairs, elevator bookings, packing and distance can change the price.
What makes a move more expensive?
The main factors are the amount of furniture and boxes, stairs or long carries, elevator waiting time, distance between homes, packing services and special items like pianos. Moving on a weekday mid-month is usually the easiest time to book.
How are long distance moves priced?
Moves over 100 km are priced by loading and unloading time plus a transport charge per kilometre, instead of hourly driving time. Use the calculator for a range and request a quote for a binding price.
Is the calculator price final?
No — it's an estimate to help you budget. A move coordinator confirms your inventory and access details and gives you a clear quote before moving day.
