The Cost of Your Move
How much your move will cost is determined by the weight of your shipment and the distance it must be transported plus any additional services you may require, such as packing, appliance service or special handling needs.
The price is based on the Household Goods Commercial Tariff. All interstate moving companies must adhere to the rates in the tariff, although most will offer some type of discount, based upon various criteria of your move. For example, large moves will likely receive a larger discount than smaller moves. And, moves scheduled during peak periods (usually the end and beginning of the summer months) will not be as highly discounted as those which occur during the off-season.
To save on the cost of your move, you should carefully evaluate "what" you will be moving, "when" you will be moving and which "special services" you will need.
Getting an Estimate
Admiral Moving & Storage will gladly provide you with a free on-site survey to estimate the actual cost of your move--at absolutely no obligation.
While weight and distance are the main factors, other costs also need to be identified. These might include packing and unpacking, appliance preparation, custom crating and storage services.
Unrealistically low estimates lead to unpleasant surprises and ultimately dissatisfaction. That's why we believe the only good estimate is an accurate one.
