Best Moving Company in Phoenix, AZ

Local moves (under 50 miles) cost $80-$150 per hour for a 2-person crew, with most moves running $400-$1,500 total. Long-distance moves cost $2,000-$8,000+ based on weight and distance. A typical 3-bedroom home costs $800-$2,500 for a local move. Packing services add $200-$600. Always get binding or not-to-exceed estimates in writing.

Book movers 4-8 weeks in advance for most moves. During peak season (May-September, end of month, and holidays), book 8-12 weeks ahead. Last-minute bookings are possible but cost more and limit your options. Start getting estimates 6-8 weeks before your move date and book as soon as you've compared at least 3 companies.

Verify their DOT number (for interstate moves) and state license, check for adequate insurance coverage, read recent online reviews, get in-home or video estimates (not phone-only), and ask about hidden fees (stairs, long carry, bulky items). Avoid companies that demand large deposits, provide vague estimates, or won't do an in-home survey.
