Getting Reliable and Accurate Moving Quotes

"B2 Moving guarantees and stands behind our estimates. We will back it up in writing with an email. If we go over your high end estimate, it's on us, we will cover the difference and chalk it up as a learning experience that forces us to get better."

"RED FLAGS" you may NOT be getting an Accurate or Reliable Quote

from a Reputable Moving Company

  • You get a lowball quote, without the company learning about the specifics of your moving situation.
  • No Price Transparency - Hard to get total cost details
  • Hesitant to send quote in email
  • Hard to find real pictures of their team.
  • Lacks urgency to call you back or respond.
  • Hourly quote is much lower than the other quotes you have gotten.
  • No hourly pricing published online
  • Responds to negative reviews defensively
  • Uses inexperienced day labors or 3rd Parties
  • Loses interest in helping you along the way
Three Bullet Proof Questions to get the most accurate and reliable quote possible.
  • Ask if their hourly rates are published online or kept private? and what is your company's reasoning for that choice? In general, the moving industry does not publish their hourly pricing and most industry experts will advise moving companies against it. At B2, we challenge industry norms or advice if it doesn't benefit our customers. That's why we choose to be transparent with our pricing. We also know it's one of the first questions our customers ask so we freely share it.

  • Ask if they will send your quote details in email? Any hesitancy to do this may be a red flag or a lack of confidence in their estimation processes. At B2, we want to send you the details in email to ensure we are on the same page and that we captured your move situation correctly and accurately.
  • Ask if they offer binding or non-binding estimates. Binding estimates can be enforced in the court of law as opposed to non binding estimates. They are written with itemized cost for all services estimated out and given to customer pre-move for acceptance and agreement. At B2, we offer binding contracts because we take accountability and we want our customers to feel peace of mind knowing that we will stand behind the estimates we give.

    I would highly recommend B2 Moving to anyone! They were quick to respond to my request for a quote, communicated clearly on the estimate, communicated quickly to any questions leading up to the move. No hidden fees, zero unexpected costs at the end of the move! They were professional, quick, had excellent customer service, and affordable! By far one of the best companies I’ve ever had interactions with for a move! Thank you Adam & your team for making my move less stressful!

    We have moved 18 times in our 53 years of marriage and this move with B2 Moving was our most professional. On time, under initial estimate, nothing damaged, courteous and attentive crew. In summary, they were absolute professionals. Would use them again in a heartbeat!

    We can’t say enough about B2Movers!!! They showed up early! We got 5 guys and 2 26ft trucks! Exactly what we asked for, nothing was changed on us! We have had that happen in the past with other movers in the area! They were the most polite, hard working guys we had ever dealt with! We would highly recommend them and no one else!

    I highly recommend B2 Movers for any move. They were prompt, polite, friendly and frequently inquired if they met our needs. Everything was wrapped and handled with care, especially a few antique pieces we had. The day was cold and wet, but they never hesitated to do their job. I was impressed with how they supported and enjoyed working with each other. I have moved about 15 times and never had a more pleasant experience. They made our day less stressful. They went beyond the mark. Their estimate was near perfect. We would not hesitate to use them again.

    We had three movers who did a great job. We only paid for the time we used which was less than originally quoted. They took extra care to avoid scratching wood floors, to wrap furniture in blankets, and they even brought a mattress cover (which we forgot in the preparation). They were very professional throughout the move.
