These figures are estimates to help you quote a job. Adjust the rates to match your local market, crew and fuel costs, distance, and how you price.
It is a free tool that turns your crew, hours, and services into a fast, itemized price for a move. Instead of guessing or reworking a spreadsheet on every quote, you pick each service, set the hours or quantity, adjust the rate to match your pricing, and see the subtotal, a suggested range, and a recommended estimate right away. It works for hourly local moves and for flat home-size pricing.
Add one row per service. For an hourly move, pick a crew size (for example "2 movers and a truck (per hour)") and enter the number of hours as the quantity. For flat pricing, pick a home size (studio, 2-bedroom, and so on) and leave the quantity at 1. The tool fills in a typical starting rate for each, which you can change to match your market. Tick any add-ons such as a truck fee, stairs, or a heavy item, set your minimum, and your estimate updates instantly.
Local moves are usually priced hourly: a crew size times an hourly rate, with a truck or travel fee and a minimum number of hours. Flat rates by home size are common for straightforward jobs and easier for the client to understand. Long-distance moves are different again, priced mostly on weight and mileage. Stairs, long carries, heavy items, and packing all add to the total, which is why every rate here is editable. For a deeper look at what to charge, see our guide on how to price a moving job. When the job is booked, bill it with our free moving company invoice template.
These are common starting points for local moves in the United States. Treat them as a baseline and adjust for your area and costs.

| Local move, 3-bedroom (flat) | $900 to $1,400 |
| Truck and travel fee | $50 to $150 |
| Minimum charge | $200 to $350 |
Do a quick walkthrough or video call to gauge the volume and access, keep a firm minimum and truck fee, and price stairs, long carries, and heavy items separately so they are not a surprise. Put the crew size, hourly rate or flat price, and what is included in writing before moving day. When the job is agreed, our free moving company quote template and estimate and quote generator turn the same line items into a professional document you can send in seconds.
This calculator provides estimates for planning purposes only. Your final price should reflect your own costs, local rates, distance, and the size and access of each job. Long-distance moves are usually priced on weight and mileage rather than the hourly and flat rates here.
