Why This Guide?
Planning a move can be overwhelming–but it doesn’t have to be. At Smooth Move Relocation Services, we believe the more prepared you are, the smoother your move will be. This guide covers everything from
understanding moving quotes to choosing the right services–plus packing tips and long-distance moving considerations.

  • Hourly rate = pay for time used (best for local moves)

Key Cost Factors:

  • Distance
  • Size/weight of items
  • Packing needs
  • Access (stairs, elevators, long carries)
  • Time of year/week
