Different Types of Moving Estimates: What You Need to Know

Moving companies have various ways of providing their customers with quotes of how much they estimate the total cost of the move will be when all is said and done.
Estimates can be binding, binding not-to-exceed or non-binding.
Often, these estimates will be given by the movers when they come to your home prior to the move to do an in-home assessment. Once at your home, they will estimate the total weight of your shipment and factor in the other services that you will need based on your requirements to guesstimate the total moving cost.
Binding estimates remain fixed during the course of the move
For example, movers came to your house to give you an estimate. They assessed your three bedrooms’ worth of items and produced an estimated weight that the shipment would be. From that estimated weight, they will come up with a total price for you to pay.
