Customer satisfaction is priority for us at Boyer-Rosene. We understand that the cost of moving in Chicago can be pricey, so we do our utmost to provide the most cost-effective service possible without sacrificing quality. This includes upfront moving quotes, so you can budget easily without worrying about surprise fees. Below, you can learn about what goes into calculating these costs and what you can do to save whether you’re moving locally or long-distance.
Local Moving Costs
When you hire us for a local relocation, we will provide you with a moving quote based on our hourly rate. When we evaluate your moving needs, we will estimate how many movers are required for your move and how long it will take to pack, load, deliver, and unload your items. Extenuating circumstances that can make the move more difficult are also considered, like whether our moving vans have clear access to your home, specialized moving requirements, and storage needs.
Long-Distance Moving Costs
When creating a cost estimate for your long-distance move, we consider how much your shipment weighs and how many miles you are relocating. Additional factors that affect this price include whether you want full-service or partial packing, specialized moving requirements, and the level of valuation coverage you choose.
How to Reduce the Cost of Moving in Chicago
There are several things you can do to cut back on moving costs, but hiring a low-quality mover is not one of them. Be aware of quotes that are far below average, and make sure that you’re working with licensed and insured professionals. This protects you against moving scams and liability problems if a mover is injured on your property. You can also receive full-to-complete reimbursement for damaged or lost items when hiring a licensed mover.
So, one of the best ways to save on costs is to hire a reputable moving company. Focus on quality over costs, and you can avoid the hassle and expense of working with underqualified movers. Additional steps you can take to reduce the cost of moving in Chicago include:
- Obtain At Least 3 Written Estimates of Moving Costs
- Sort and Purge Items That You Do Not Want or Need
- Pack Light, Non-Fragile Items Yourself
- Schedule Your Move as Soon as Possible
