Moving Charges

Everyone has heard of movers extra charges in long-distance or cross-country moves. These are the charges for things that we normally may not think twice about during daily life that can affect your moving team as far as time or physical effort required for the move. 

Here at Fixprice Move, we do our best to anticipate all charges related to your move, and properly prepare you for these charges. In all cases, we do our best to work within your budget to meet your moving needs.

Here are the Most Common Charges:

Stairs - there is a per-flight charge for each flight of stairs. This charge is applied on both pick-up and delivery
Elevator - there is a one-time fee for elevator use, regardless of number of floors passed, however this charge can be applied both on pick-up and delivery.
Long Carry - this charge is applied when, for any reason, the truck cannot park within 50-feet of your ENTRANCE DOOR. The entrance door can be the front door, back door, Garage, etc. This is because of the extra time and labor required in transporting your items to our truck.
Shuttle Charge - this is the single-most difficult charge to address, simply because in most of our moves, we are unaware of it until the last minute. The shuttle charge is applied when, for any reason, the truck cannot park within a reasonable carrying distance to your home. An example would be a gated community, or downtown Manhattan, NY. The driver is always forced to rent a smaller truck, transfer your goods to the truck, and then make the delivery. the shuttle charge reflects the costs necessary to cover the extra effort required for delivery.
Packing Materials - If any additional packing is necessary at pick-up (for example, proper packing for a mattress or television), and we use materials off of our truck, then you are charged for the individual materials used. Please visit our packing page for packing materials pricelists.
