Our Pricing Options

Moving to a new home can be hectic enough as it is, but factoring in the price can induce more stress. Fortunately, when moving with California Movers, we make sure that you are getting industry-defining services at a reasonable cost. In an effort to ensure transparency throughout our processes, here is a closer look at what our pricing options look like before the move.

Pay by the Hour

The standard way that our movers operate is on an hourly basis, ensuring that you only pay for what is necessary. An hourly rate offers greater flexibility and transparency, since all of the factors that could change the final cost of your move are clearly laid out. You could even make moving more efficient if you provide our team with a video walkthrough of all your belongings, preparing them for the big day.

An important thing to consider with hourly jobs is that they include minimums. For a residential move, whether it’s short or long distance, there is a two hour minimum. So even if the move only takes 1.5 hours, you will be charged for the full 2 hours. As for commerical moves, the minimum extends to threee hours.

After reaching the minimum, you will then be billed in smaller increments instead of the full hour. Billing you in smaller increments offers greater convenience to all of our clients since they don’t have to overpay after the move. Hourly rates are an especially good deal if you’re moving interstate.

Estimates

Even though there are various factors that could influence the final cost of the move, we pride ourselves on offering fairly accurate estimates. Thanks to years of experience in the field, the information that you provide is usually enough for us to estimate how much the job will cost. This is also a good time to ask our representative if there are any moving discounts that you could be eligible for. Factors that could affect your estimate include:

An Experienced Team

Our focus is on ensuring that you have a relaxed moving experience, which we ensure through our experienced team. The team will include a foreman, veteran movers, and a dispatcher. We do not use contractors to ensure the safety of your belongings. The volume of your belongings could require more movers, which could influence your quote.

Transport Vehicles

The vehicles that we provide are well-maintained and include GPS tracking. The more things you have, the more trucks will be needed to transport everything.

Blankets and Dollies

During the move, we will also be using blankets and dollies to ensure safe transportation of your furniture. This will be included in your estimate.

Same day move

Hiring a company for a same day move will generally have a different quote. So, you should be open to our representative about when you want to move. We are also open about our Trucks, Licenses & Credentials, so your items will be safe with us.

Flat Rate Pricing

Flat rate pricing can be a much more convenient option for many customers since it gives them a fixed quote on their move. Considering all of the information that you provide us, we will give you a specific quote that will be your fixed price during the move.

Choosing flat pricing means that you don’t have to worry about paying more for different factors on the day of the job. Instead, you will pay a fixed amount, no matter how long the job takes or how many things you have to move. Knowing how much the move will cost in advance can also be great for people who are on a budget since they know exactly how much they have to pay. This also applies to any places that you will have to stop by to make donations and mover’s liability and coverage. Here is a convenient list of Places to Donate in SF.

Cost of Materials

Another reason why our team ask for a detailed inventory of your belongings is because it allows us to calculate the materials needed for the job. So, any items that we use on the day of the move, including bubble wrap, boxes, shrink wrap, and tape, among other things, are included. When using these items, we will only charge you for what we use. The cost of supplies will be a part of your bill on the day of the move, and you will only have to pay for what was used.

Services that we offer for free

Along with an emphasis on transparency, we make sure to sweeten the deal with a few services that we offer for free. This ensures that you have a smoother experience when moving and don’t have to worry about paying more for certain services. These include:
