Ask whether it moves you under MC374610

Ask which truck and crew you get

- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
SPD Transfer Service files 2 tractors. If a full rig cannot reach your door, the move needs a shuttle truck, which is a separate line on the bill; ask before the estimate is written.
- 4

The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Kansas City at $475 – $775 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $5,769 – $7,692. A surveyed, written estimate from SPD Transfer Service far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
