How a Charlotte move is priced
A move to Charlotte crosses a state line, so it is priced by weight, not by the hour. Your written estimate lists the rate per pound and a minimum space reservation. Extra pounds are charged at the rate you were quoted. The estimate is non-binding, because the final price is based on the actual weight of the shipment.
You can also reserve an entire truck at a flat fee. That price is binding, with guaranteed pickup and delivery. One crew handles both ends, with no accessorial charges.
The loaded truck is weighed, and the scale ticket shows your net weight. A free on-site inspection gives the most accurate estimate.
Delivery window
Delivery time window: up to 30 days (company policy). Average delivery time window: 7 to 14 days, counted from your earliest available delivery date.
Set your earliest available date with your travel, closing or lease start in Charlotte in mind. A reserved truck gives fixed dates if you need them.
Charges that can apply at delivery
Four delivery-side services may apply on a weight-based move: stairs past the first flight, a walk of more than 100 feet, an elevator, or a shuttle to a smaller truck. We note the likely ones on your estimate.
What you pay for, and what is extra
The rate covers all mileage, taxes and tolls. Door-to-door labor is in it too: loading, unloading, taking furniture apart and putting it back, labeling and the inventory. Moving blankets and tape are free; other packing supplies are charged as used. Basic valuation at $0.60 per pound per article is included; full value protection is available from Baker International (account ID 17421). Not in the base rate: packing (available per pound) and unpacking.
How payment works
Payment is split, 50% when we load and 50% when we deliver in Charlotte. Payment: Cash, Money Order, Visa, or Mastercard (3% transaction fee applies for card payments). If the balance goes on a card, it is due a day ahead of delivery. Returning customers and real-estate-agent referrals get 7% off, and friend referrals 5%.
