Freight Moving Quotes
If you're shopping for a cost effective way to move long distance shared freight may be your best option. With shared freight, you are basically renting space on a truck, from an ABF 28' straight truck to a full 53' tractor trailer from Movex. The space that you do not use is sold to others who are moving and the truck continues this process of loading and unloading new shipments.
The benefits are clear, with shared freight you can share the cost of moving your household with others. Both of the two major household shipping companies are listed to the left, and the average loading and unloading completion times for Elite Moving Labor crews are listed below. You can also use our Movex quote form for a live shipping quote.

The above estimates are based on best case scenario from a single family home or townhome. Basically, this means that the truck would be very close to the home and the household items are standard. Similar to mobile storage units, freight trucks generally have issues with being allowed in certain places. Many times this results in the truck parking far away from the home creating a long carry which adds more time. If you have a unique situation please contact us and we will be happy to customize and estimate based on your situation.
