How Meditation Movers operates, from its filing
- Where its drivers work
- 1 interstate beyond 100 air miles. Read plainly, every driver it files works beyond 100 miles, the profile of a long-distance operation.
- Commercial driver's licences
- Its one driver does not hold a CDL. A CDL is required to drive a truck rated over 26,000 lb, so on its own filing Meditation Movers runs only trucks rated 26,000 lb or less.
- Cargo declared
- Household goods, plus general freight.

What a move with Meditation Movers should cost
Not Meditation Movers's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Philadelphia costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Philadelphia: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Philadelphia: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $42–$53 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $495 – $817.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $243 – $393 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $327 – $605 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $495 – $817 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $831 – $1,506 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,419 – $2,195 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,755 – $2,619 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Pennsylvania: hand movers there earn a median $20.43 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $42–$53 per mover per hour.

Before you book Meditation Movers
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC1783686
Meditation Movers can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC1783686. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask for Philadelphia references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Meditation Movers's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Philadelphia you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Meditation 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 $495 – $817
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Philadelphia at $495 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $495 – $817. A surveyed, written estimate from Meditation Movers far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
