A video estimate is the fastest, most accurate way to get a fixed moving quote. You record a slow walkthrough of your home on your phone — and we watch it like we are standing in the room with you. We see the furniture, the boxes, the tight hallway, the awkward staircase, the parking situation out front — all the things a typed inventory always misses. From that footage we build your fixed price off real visuals, not guesses.
This method is the best fit if you want a confirmed number quickly, you have a fair amount to move, or your place has access challenges that are hard to describe in a form — a fifth-floor walk-up, a narrow doorway, a basement full of "we will figure it out later." If a written list feels like it would undersell the job, show us instead.
How a video estimate works
- Start your quote and tell us the basics — your two addresses and roughly when you are moving.
- Record a room-by-room walkthrough on your phone. Walk slowly, open closets, and narrate anything that matters. No special app, no scheduled call.
- We review the footage — pausing, zooming in, and measuring by eye to size up every piece and every tricky spot.
- We send back your fixed quote, itemized and locked. Then we match you with a vetted partner mover who does the actual move.
What to capture on camera
- Every room, closet, and storage area, including the garage, basement, and anything headed to the curb.
- The large or fragile items — sofas, beds, dressers, appliances, mirrors, that one stubborn armoire.
- Access on both ends: stairs, the elevator, hallway width, doorways, and where a truck can actually park.
Why a video estimate is so accurate
A fixed price is only as good as the information behind it. Typed inventories leave gaps — people forget the closets, underestimate the boxes, and rarely think to mention the three flights of stairs. Real footage closes those gaps. We see the true volume and the real access on both ends, so we can size the crew, the truck, and the hours correctly the first time. That is what lets us hand you one number and stand behind it — no day-of "the job was bigger than we thought" surprises.
