Larger homes may need more than one truck trip or container. Labor time continues while the truck is driven and returned, so plan transportation carefully.
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Crew size | Each company prices crews of two, three or more movers separately. |
| Labor hours | You pay the company's minimum or your actual hours, whichever is greater. |
| Stairs | Some companies add a charge per flight; others don't. |
| Specialty items | Pianos and items over 300 lb may add charges or need a quote. |
| Loading, unloading or both | One end of the move takes fewer hours than both. |
| Packing and unpacking | Packing services add crew time. |
| Transportation | You supply the truck or container and pay for it separately. |
| Local rates | Independent companies set different rates in different areas. |
Truck and crew coordination
On a large move, labor hours often depend as much on transportation logistics as on the furniture itself.
- Confirm your truck or container capacity before booking labor.
- Ask whether a second truck trip means waiting time for the crew.
- Book packing help on an earlier day if rooms aren't ready.
- Group specialty items so the right crew size handles them together.
Planning a big move day
Have every room packed before the crew arrives and consider booking packing on an earlier day. Ask the company about breaks and long days when you request.
