When customers call our office to inquire about long distance quote, our specialist will provide them with our rates (tariff). The rates (tariff) are based on the weight of shipment and distance. However, over the phone we will be unable to provide you with an exact weight of your shipment until the actual move day. Our customers are welcome to join us at a government regulated scales. We will make arrangements to meet with customer in the morning prior to loading the truck and later after its fully loaded. The difference between the two weights is the weight of customer's shipment. Our customers get copies of both certificates. In order to determine an approximate size/weight of the shipment (residence), you can use the table below.

 

 

 

The table provides approximate weights of residential shipments. However there are additional services that may be required by customer. Those services will be discussed with our office or our estimator. Those services are:

• Packing & Unpacking of boxes,
• Crating: wooden or carton, of bulky, large, valuables (electronics, TVs, crystal, musical instruments etc.),
• Long walk to truck,
• Extra pickups or drop offs,
• Storage in Transit (SIT),
• Shuttle

 

We would like to show you a simple calculation of long distance move, with no additional services provided.

EXAMPLE:

• Light weight of the truck: 15,100 lbs.(weighed at certified scales prior to loading).
• Heavy weight of the truck: 24,500 lbs. (weighed after truck fully loaded).
• Pay load: 24,500 less 15,100 = 9,400 lbs.
• Applying tariff: $0.32/lb for distance 400-600 miles. - 9,400 x 0.32 = $3,008.00 cost of transportation.
• Additional charges(all optional): Packing boxes, Cost of materials, Insurance policy, Shuttle, Long walk, Stairs, Storage, etc.
• Less any promotional discounts.

 

The truck is weighed twice. First time empty - prior to loading at local government regulated scales. Second time - after the load was completed. Customer is welcome to be present at both weighings.
