How a Minneapolis move is priced

Moving to Minneapolis is priced the interstate way, by weight. The estimate gives two numbers that matter: the rate per pound and the minimum space reservation. Weight above the reservation costs the same rate. This estimate is non-binding; your invoice reflects what the loaded shipment really weighs.

Prefer one fixed number? Ask for a flat fee based on reserving an entire truck. It is binding and comes with guaranteed pickup and delivery. No weight limit applies, and access at the Minneapolis end does not change the price.

After pickup the loaded shipment is weighed, and you receive the net weight and the scale ticket. Decide what stays behind before the free on-site inspection, so the estimate covers only what is going.

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.

Tell us the first day someone can let the crew in at the Minneapolis address; that is where the count begins. Plan your own travel so someone is there from that date on.

What can be added at delivery

At the Minneapolis end of a weight-based move, the driver can charge for stairs beyond the first flight, a long carry over 100 feet, an elevator, or a shuttle when the truck cannot reach the door. A reserved-truck flat fee has none of these.

Included in the per-pound rate

The rate covers all mileage, taxes and tolls. Loading and unloading, disassembly and reassembly, and a labeled inventory of every item are part of it too. Moving blankets and tape are free; other packing supplies are charged as used. Basic valuation is $0.60 per pound per article, and full value protection can be bought from Baker International (account ID 17421). Packing is an add-on, and unpacking boxes is not included.
