The cost of hiring movers depends on the amount of work involved, not just the distance between two addresses. A useful estimate starts with the home size, furniture, boxes, access, packing needs, and any stops along the way.
What an hourly moving rate should cover
At Get Moving, the hourly rate includes the professional crew, moving truck, and standard moving equipment. There are no separate truck, fuel, mileage, or trip fees. A two-hour minimum applies, followed by quarter-hour billing, so the conversation can stay focused on the work your move actually needs.
Details that change the time
Stairs, elevators, long walks from the truck, tight parking, unusually heavy pieces, storage units, and packing all affect the time needed. Share those details early, along with both addresses and the approximate number of bedrooms or rooms. They help determine an appropriate crew size and timeframe.
How to get a clearer estimate
Make a short room-by-room list of major furniture and note anything fragile or difficult to move. If the move is larger or less defined, an in-home estimate gives the crew a better picture before moving day.
How Get Moving can help
Get Moving provides professional moving services throughout Northern Colorado, including full-service moves, packing, loading and unloading, storage-unit moves, and commercial moving. Share the details of your move through the estimate request form so the team can recommend the right crew size and estimated timeframe.
Frequently asked questions
Do movers charge for fuel or mileage?
Get Moving does not add separate fuel, mileage, truck, or trip fees to its standard moving rate.
Is travel time part of a local move?
Time is normally billed from when the crew leaves the Loveland yard until they return, although a travel discount may apply depending on the move.
