Estimate

A professional assessment for the cost of moving services. An estimate is based on the volume of your household goods, packing services, and other factors such as distance from the truck to your house, number of stairs flights, etc.

 

Binding Estimate is a flat rate quoted for the given amount or inventory of the move.  This is an estimate that is typically provided onsite.  A non-binding estimate is an initial quote based on a company's past experience and is usually provided without an estimate.  A final price is given when the move is complete.
