How To Pay For Your Movers
Moving can be billed in three ways, by the hour, flat rate or by the load.
Billing by the hour is recommended for Calgary to Calgary moves, especially in the downtown area, the rates for 2 men and the truck is $ per hour. An average one bedroom apartment takes between 4-6 hours. If you require additional packing services before the move, the rate is $ per hour for 2 professional packers. It takes about 2-3 hours to pack an average one bedroom apartment. While it may seem like the packing service is adding to the cost of the move, in many instances it will save you money because move execution actually goes faster when prepared in advanced by seasoned professional movers.
Flat rate billing can be a tricky proposition because both the moving company and the client have to come to a mutual agreement. Invariably, someone will get the shorter end of the stick at the end of the move, could be the company working too long and getting a ridiculously low hourly rate or could be the customer paying an outrageous hourly rate because the job got completed too quickly. Flat rate billing is only recommended for people or businesses with extensive experience in the moving industry in general.
Billing by the load is fine for long distance services, anything leaving Calgary to Toronto, Vancouver, Montreal, Ottawa or Edmonton is billed this way. The load is billed on the weight of the shipment plus scale fees and various small extra moving fees, please contact us for further details. Cost per pound varies between 50 cents to a dollar, this rate can change according to the timing, nature of shipment, origin and destination addresses and if you order pack and move or just the Calgary move service.
