Getting ready to move to the energetic city of California? Time is critical in the fast-paced society we live in today. Here at California Movers, we recognize the value of effectiveness and ease.

Connect with our expert moving advisors on Zoom, and they will guide you through a virtual tour of your house or place of business so that we can get you a quote that is customized to your needs.

It is that easy.

What Is A Virtual Moving Estimate?

With a virtual moving estimate, you can organize your move in a specific and effective manner, regaining control over your moving experience. You can schedule a video call from the convenience of your home or place of business, allowing the mover to virtually examine, evaluate, and gain a better understanding of your things. During the video chat, your mover will assess your inventory, count the number of boxes, identify any complexities or challenges related to your work, and actively respond to your questions. The best thing is that with video estimates, you will receive a price for the move that is more accurate, detailed, and unique.

Our video estimates also include a discussion about mover’s liability and coverage, ensuring that you are fully aware of how your belongings will be protected.

The Power Of Virtual Quotes

Avoid Surprise Costs:

● With a virtual survey or walkthrough, you can get a precise moving quote upfront, eliminating unexpected costs. Whether you choose a video call, pre-recorded footage, photos, or an existing inventory list, our virtual estimates provide clear insight into our pricing and what to expect during your move. This transparency helps you budget accurately and ensures no hidden fees on moving days.

Informed Moving Crew:

● Virtual assessments guarantee that our movers arrive fully prepared with the right equipment, vehicles, and crew size tailored to your needs. This preparation ensures a smooth and efficient moving process, aligning perfectly with your specific requirements and reducing any last-minute surprises.

Smooth Move, Guaranteed:

● By opting for a virtual estimate, you eliminate the guesswork and potential misunderstandings. Our detailed virtual assessments help you understand exactly what to expect before your move, leading to a more organized and seamless relocation experience.

The Types Of Virtual Estimates We Offer Include

We provide a selection of virtual estimate choices based on your convenience and preferences:

● Video Survey: Zoom allows you to show us your belongings, ask questions, and go over any specifics or requirements you may have for your relocation. Take us on a virtual tour of your place. An interactive moving estimate that is more precise and personalized is guaranteed.

● Online Form Estimates: You can fill out our easy-to-use online form with as much information as possible regarding the moving process, including whether you need help with packing, disassembling, or other special handling needs. On the form, there is an opportunity to pick and add your inventory. Our staff will eventually utilize the information you supply to create a customized estimate, providing you with a brief overview of the expected costs.

● Submit Videos or Photos for a Quote: If anyone prefers a more comfortable approach, you can send in recorded videos or pictures of your stuff to get a detailed moving quote. Your information and the specifics of your move can be emailed to us, and our staff will utilize it to assess the particular needs of your project and get you an estimate.

● Sharing an Existing Inventory List: Please feel free to email us your inventory list if you already have one. Send that list to us to speed up the process if you’ve already had an onsite or virtual walkthrough with another moving company and obtained a price that included your inventory and cubic footage. As a result, we can generate estimates more quickly and efficiently without wasting time. If there are items on the list that need special care, we might ask for more details or a picture or video.

Video Estimate: Easy Steps To A Seamless Video Walkthrough

Here are some tips to help you get ready to receive the most accurate quote from your mover, regardless of whether you choose to submit a pre-recorded video or have a live video call:

● Walkthrough your space ahead of time:
Take some time to examine your entire area in detail. Because they are familiar, common areas like closets and storage spaces or frequently neglected locations like the garage, backyard, or outdoor patio are easily missed. On a moving day, there can be unexpected costs if these areas are overlooked. Make sure all rooms and spaces have been properly documented before your walkthrough or pre-recorded video. This will help to avoid oversights.

● Open all drawers, cabinets, and closet doors:
Make sure that every closet door, drawer, and cabinet is open, displaying the contents within. This helps the mover in precisely estimating the number of boxes needed for your moving, whether or not you are packing on your own.

● Be ready to highlight the successes and failures:
Be prepared to state your choices, whether you’re moving some goods personally, leaving some behind, or choosing a different drop-off site. Please specify the things you would like the movers to move so that the quotation is computed accurately. You can always update your mover with adjustments if you are unclear at the time of the video in order to receive a more precise price. Just keep in mind that the mover must account for this in your quote if it is being transported by truck, whether it be to your new home, a storage facility, a donation center, or a disposal site.

● Keep your mover updated with the essential info:
Are there any things in the house that need particular care or handling? Do you need assistance packing everything or just the fragile items? Does your profession need you to navigate stairs, vast distances, or service entrances? Does the move require a certificate of insurance for your building? Do you have any deadlines for the building or elevator? It’s important to let your mover know about any building-specific deadlines or elevator requirements, packing preferences, site access, inventory preparation, and building restrictions. This helps you avoid unforeseen expenses on move day and guarantees that the mover can customize their quotation and services to avoid issues and delays during the moving process.

● Receive your quote:
Following the completion of your virtual tour or inventory review, you will receive a complete written moving estimate that will help you understand the associated costs. Make sure you understand what is included in your estimate and any potential additional costs, regardless of whether you have an hourly or flat-rate capped estimate for your moving.

Tip: Take note that the final moving cost may differ from the estimate owing to many reasons, such as modifications to the task scope, adjustments to the inventory, extra services (such as packing, unpacking, storing, special handling, etc.), or incomplete information from the estimate. Before moving day, notify the mover of any modifications or new information to ensure correct pricing and service adjustments, which will help you stay inside your budget and prevent unforeseen expenses.
