Your crew size changes both speed and hourly rate. This moving cost calculator chooses a realistic time window based on typical 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom apartment moves, then applies your hourly pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a guaranteed price+
No. This tool is designed to be fast and helpful using local average pricing and typical move times. Final pricing depends on access, stairs, long carries, item volume, and special handling needs.
How is the hourly rate calculated+
The base rate is $180 per hour for two movers. Additional movers are $80 per hour per mover. The estimator uses your crew size to compute the hourly rate automatically.
Why does a bigger crew sometimes cost less overall+
More movers raise the hourly rate, but they can reduce total hours. Many apartment moves finish faster with a larger crew, which can reduce the total cost.
What does long carry mean+
Long carry means the walk from the door to the truck is longer than normal due to limited parking, long hallways, or distance to an elevator. That extra walking typically adds time.
