Why moving quotes are painful
Someone moving knows the number of rooms, the floor, whether there is a lift, and the date. Movers need volume, access and labour hours. Bridging that gap currently requires a site visit or a long phone call, and customers comparing three companies will only do that once. Damage liability is the other anxiety: everyone has heard about a broken television and an argument, and almost no mover states their terms in advance.
What we build for a moving company
First, a volume estimator by rooms and property type, adjusted for floors and lift access, which turns a customer description into a quotable job. Second, packing, materials and disassembly options priced, since those are the variables that make quotes incomparable. Third, date booking with availability, because moves happen at month end and capacity is the constraint. Fourth, liability and insurance terms published, which is the anxiety competitors leave unaddressed.
