What movers on MovePricer actually quoted. Across 17 real quotes from California to Texas in the last 18 months, the median quote was $4,005 for a median load of 471 cf, about $7.14 per cubic foot all in. Small loads sit near the minimum charge, which is why the per-foot figure runs above the rate band.
Read a quote for this route
- Ask for the price as cubic feet × rate. If a mover will not state the volume they priced, you cannot compare them with anyone else.
- A quote far under $4,916 for a 2-bedroom home almost always means the volume was underestimated and the price will rise on moving day.
- Check the mover's federal authority, insurance on file and fleet on their page here before paying a deposit. Brokers who own no trucks are common on long routes.
