What a written estimate must say

The ranges on this page are a model. A real long-distance estimate is a document, and it should name all six of these.

  • Origin and destination

    Confirms every mover is pricing the same job.

  • The estimate type

    Binding, non-binding or not-to-exceed decides whether the total can change.

  • Weight or cubic feet, and how it was found

    A survey of your home is more reliable than a guess from the number of rooms.

  • The valuation level

    Released value or full-value protection, and what it costs to raise it.

  • The mover's legal name, USDOT and MC numbers

    The company that is responsible for your shipment. Look it up on FMCSA.

  • The delivery window

    The first and last dates your things can arrive. Long hauls deliver in a window, not on one day.

Questions people ask

Moving from Miami: questions

How much do cross-country movers from Miami cost?

It depends on the distance and how much you are moving. Each route above shows a modelled cost range for a 2-bedroom home, worked out from the estimated road miles from Miami. It is a planning number, not a quote: the written estimates come from licensed movers through the 8 Top Movers moving team.

How do I check a cross-country mover from Miami?

Look up the mover's USDOT number on the FMCSA website, check that it is allowed to move household goods between states, and get the valuation coverage in writing before you book.

Is the cost range on this page a written estimate?

No. It is a non-binding model from distance and a typical household size. A carrier estimate follows a survey and names estimate type, valuation, the delivery window, and the legal USDOT / MC.
