What moves the price of move

Labour, materials and timing explain most of the gap between two quotes for move. Access and preparation often matter as much as the headline task, so a job that needs extra setup or a second visit costs more even when the base price looks identical.

Timing your move

Timing changes what you pay for move. Demand peaks around holidays, seasonal deadlines and the start of the busy season, and prices follow. Booking in a quieter window is one of the few levers that lowers the figure without cutting scope.

How to compare quotes for move

When you compare quotes for move, line up the scope, the materials and the timeline rather than just the totals. Ask each provider what would make the price rise after the quote is accepted.

Who sets move prices

No one publishes an official rate for move. Each provider costs the job from the ground up, so the figure reflects their materials, their time and their current workload.
