Factors Affecting Moving Costs
We’ve seen moves that cost a couple hundred bucks, and we’ve seen moves that cost $8000 and up. It all comes down to a few important factors.
The Date and Demand
Moving demand varies depending on the time of year. If you want to save big, plan your move far from summer, holidays, and pretty much any other time school’s out.
More Stuff
The more you have to move, the more you’ll have to pay. We recommend downsizing before booking so you can save as much as possible.
White Glove Service
Fragile antiques, china, and other valuable items all require a special touch. Movers will charge extra for white glove service, but it’s worth it for the extra TLC.
Shuttles
Many cities won’t let you park a big moving truck on the street. Your movers will have to use a smaller truck or van to transport your items to or from a staging area.
Access Fees
If your movers have to navigate stairs, elevators, and long driveways, it’ll cost you extra. Talk to your movers beforehand so they know what to expect.
More Miles
More miles means more money. You’ll have to pay per hour for your local movers, and you’ll have to pay per mile for a long distance move.
Insurance
Insurance covers broken, damaged or lost items. It also covers injuries that can occur during the move. While these events are rare, it’s good to have full protection.
The Time Of Month
Most leases start at the beginning of the month, and finish at the end of each month. Mid-month moving avoids high demand and saves more money.

How to Save Money During Your Move
Moving can be pricey, and balancing a budget can be stressful. Fortunately, there are plenty of ways to save your money and save your sanity:
Downsize Your Stuff
The best way to move a bunch of stuff is to make sure you don’t have much stuff to begin with. Donate or sell off your unneeded items before you book.
DIY Your Move
If you want to be extra budget-conscious, you can do the entire move yourself. This means renting a truck, packing up your stuff, and driving it yourself.
Be Flexible
If you’re flexible on the exact date of your move, you may be able to save big. Certain dates are always more expensive for moving. Avoid holidays and the summer.
Pack It Yourself
Full service movers can handle packing, loading, hauling, and unloading for you - but it comes at a price. DIY your packing if you’re really strapped for cash.
Ask Ahead About Additional Fees
Fortunately, iMoving keeps all these additional fees transparent so you can adjust your plans and your budget accordingly.

Moving FAQ
Local movers will cost anywhere between $80 and $100 per hour and up. When you’re moving less than 100 miles and within the same state, expect to pay an hourly fee multiplied by the number of movers – typically one or two per room. Don’t forget the tip! Two movers with a truck might charge $90 to $120 per hour.
Moving truck rentals vary in price, generally between $150 and over $8,500. The overall cost depends on the size of the truck and the distance you’ll be traveling.
Renting a moving container will cost you between $450 and $1,900+. Moving containers allow you to pack at your own pace before calling the company to haul your container to your new location.
Long distance movers will cost anywhere from $1,200 to $15,200 and up. Any move over 100 miles or across state lines will require a long distance mover.
Instead of an hourly fee, they’ll charge you by the weight of your goods, and the distance they’ll have to drive.If you want to rent a moving container with PODS, you should know whether you’re moving local or long distance ahead of time. You can book with PODS online for a local move, but a long distance move will require you to actually give them a phonecall in order to plan everything out. You should also get a solid idea of how much space you’ll need: A bigger POD comes with a bigger price tag.
Yes and no. In some cases, it can be really cost effective to handle a move all by yourself. But, you need to remember that you’ll be paying for a truck rental, gas, food, lodging, and any specialized moving equipment you might need for heavier items.
Another overlooked expense is lost wages. If you’re busy moving, you’re not clocked in at work – and that can be money down the drain.

Using PODS or moving containers gives you a degree of flexibility when you’re planning your move. The container company will drop off your rental, you can pack it at your own pace, and when it’s ready the company can pick it up for delivery or storage.
