What actually changes the number

What moves your price up or down

📦 Packing status

The #1 factor. Fully packed before the crew arrives can save 1–2 hours. We also offer full packing if you'd rather not.

🏢 Stairs, elevators & carries

Walk-ups, elevator waits, and long carries from door to truck add time. Tell us up front — we plan the crew for it.

🚚 Distance between homes

Drive time between your two addresses is on the clock, so closer moves cost less.

🛋️ Heavy & bulky items

Pianos, safes, gym equipment, oversized furniture — doable, but tell us ahead so we bring the right gear and crew.

Common questions

Your questions, answered

How much do movers charge per hour?
In the Seattle area, Next Phase Moving charges $140/hr for a 2-man crew, $200/hr for 3 movers, and $260/hr for 4 movers — plus a one-time truck & equipment fee of $120–$160. That's the complete price list.
What does the hourly rate include?
The crew, the truck, fuel, moving blankets, shrink wrap, dollies, and basic disassembly/reassembly of standard furniture. There are no fuel surcharges, stair fees, or weekend markups.
Is there a minimum?
Yes — 3 hours. Most studio and 1-bedroom moves land at or just over the minimum, which is why a typical small move starts around $540 all-in.
Do you charge for travel time?
The clock runs from arrival at your first address to finished at your second. The one-time truck fee covers our travel — no separate travel or fuel charges.
Hourly sounds risky — what if the move runs long?
That's what our Price-Lock Guarantee is for: we confirm your inventory and access up front and lock your total before move day. The number we agree on is the number you pay.
