Before you book Budget Movers
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC788722

- 2
Ask which truck and crew you get

- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Budget Movers driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $505 – $817
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Bennington at $505 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $6,053 – $8,070. A surveyed, written estimate from Budget Movers far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
