Moving Costs Near Ashby
Local moves under 100 miles are billed hourly plus a travel charge. Here's what a typical job costs by home size.

Extra Charges to Ask About
Many companies add a flat block of travel time, often around one hour, to cover the drive from their base to your door and back, so confirm this before booking. A binding estimate protects you from a rising quote; a non-binding one can legally increase if the job runs long.
| Extra Fee | Typical Trigger |
|---|---|
| Travel time | About 1 hour added each way |
| Long carry / stairs | Truck can't park close, no elevator |
| Heavy items | Piano, safe, oversized furniture |
Basic carrier liability is capped at $0.60 per pound per item by law, so a $1,000 television weighing 20 pounds only nets $12 if it's dropped. Cash tips are customary too, typically $20 to $40 per mover for a half day or $50 to $100 for a full one.
Comparing these numbers against what local movers list below is the quickest way to spot a fair quote.

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
