What people actually paid for a move like yours, an hourly local move, or two cities side by side. Add your route and you get the price on that lane.
You get what reviewers paid for the same move, with the middle half.
How the number is worked out
For a US move the figure is a median of what people paid, taken from the licensed review file: reviews posted since 1 Jan 2025 that name both ends of the move in the US and state a price between $100 and $60,000. Moves that stay inside one state and moves that cross a state line are kept apart, because a local crew usually bills by the hour while an interstate mover prices by weight and miles. The middle half is the 25th to the 75th percentile: half of the reviewers paid inside it, a quarter paid less and a quarter paid more. A cell needs at least 10 priced reviews before the tool prints a median.
When your saved move names both cities, the tool also asks for that lane and shows the lane median when the file holds enough priced reviews for it. For Canada and the UK we do not yet hold enough priced reviews to print a median, so the tool shows a planning range compiled in September 2026 from published industry tables and public quote examples, and labels it that way. Haulest is not a moving company and does not set prices: every figure here is what reviewers reported, not a quote.

What the median leaves out
A review price is one household's total, so it carries their stairs, their packing, their date and their distance. Your own bill moves with the same things. Size the load first with what fits, check how busy your date is on the best day to move calendar, and read a written quote against the estimate checker before you pay a deposit. Reviews are self-reported and lean toward people with something to say, so treat the middle half as the honest range rather than the median as a promise.
