Estimated Total Cost vs Moving Distance
How Moving Costs Are Estimated
Moving costs depend on labor (crew hours), transportation (distance), and packing materials.
Formula
Total = (Hourly Rate x Hours) + (Distance x $0.75/mi) + Packing Supplies
The $0.75/mile estimate covers fuel and truck wear for a typical moving truck.
Example Calculation
500-mile move, 4 rooms, $150/hr crew for 6 hours, $150 supplies.
- 01Labor cost = $150 x 6 = $900
- 02Transportation = 500 x $0.75 = $375
- 03Packing supplies = $150
- 04Total estimated cost = $900 + $375 + $150 = $1,425
