100,000+ Happy Customers Can’t Be Wrong
Why bother with a sales pitch when our customers can do the talking? Here’s what they’re saying about their moves with Pricing Van Lines:
How Pricing Van Lines Does Local Moving?
Even if it’s just down the street, your local move deserves highly trained movers. And at Pricing Van Lines, we do it all without breaking the bank. When you book with us for your local move, we’ll send a crew who knows the area, and a crew that also knows how to carefully pack and handle all of your fragile (and not-so-fragile) items.
The other guys may charge you for a ton of options and extras you won’t even use on a moving day, but that’s not how we work. Every move is different, so we let our customers pick and choose the moving services they’ll need. You get a custom moving experience that’s tailored to your relocation, and you get a team that’s up to the task.
On a moving day, every minute counts. That’s why your team will efficiently pack, load, and transport your belongings – and they’ll plan the hauling around traffic, so there’s no wasted time. Less time means less money spent, and a lot less hassle. It’s how we handle local moves, and it’s how we provide easy moves for way less cash than the competition.
Local Moving Services
“One size fits all” doesn’t really exist in the moving industry. Why settle for a cookie cutter plan when you can pick and choose all the services you need?
Last Minute Moving
To us, everyone should be able to get out of town as fast as needed. That’s why our last minute movers show up on time, and can get you moved without missing a beat.
Last minute moving can be pricey. Since most moving companies need to carefully plan a route based on existing customers’ needs, they’ll usually charge a major premium if you need to get moved ASAP. Not us. We’ll load pack up your stuff, load it onto a truck, and get it to point B as quickly as possible.
Small Moves
Small moves can be tough. They’re too big to fit in your car, but too small to warrant a big moving truck. In fact, some moving companies are so strict, they won’t move your stuff unless you meet a minimum weight. Not us.
Pricing Van Lines is your go-to choice for cheap small moves. Whether it’s a dresser, a couple of end tables, or just that mattress that’s too big for the trunk of your car, we can have it handled with care and delivered on time.
Supplies and Packing Services
Fine china. Antique furniture. Anime figurines. We’ve seen it all, and our packing pros know how to keep all that precious cargo as safe as possible.
When you book full packing from Pricing Van Lines, you’re getting a professional team that can handle all the heavy lifting. But before they do any loading and hauling, our packing pros will wrap, box, and securely tape everything together. It’s extra convenient, and it’s extra peace of mind.
Loading and unloading
When you book with Pricing Van Lines, you’re getting the pros to handle the heavy lifting. Good thing, too, because paying a doctor to fix your back is probably going to be a lot more expensive than hiring professional loading and unloading.
The moving teams at Pricing Van Lines come prepared for all the heaviest, awkward-est items. Sectional sofas, pool tables, you name it, they can lift, load, and unload it. We’ll use furniture dollies, hand trucks, and everything else in our toolbox that can make the loading and unloading even easier.
Furniture Disassembly and Reassembly
Everyone’s got a sofa that’s just too big to fit through the door, or a desk that they swear comes apart somehow. It’s up to Pricing Van Lines to figure out the logistics.
When you book our affordable furniture disassembly and reassembly services, you’re getting a professional team that knows how to reverse IKEA everything you own. We’ll show up with all the tools and know-how needed to take it all apart, and put it back together again at point B. And we won’t charge you an absurd amount of money for it, either.
Specialty Item Moving
You may be moving local, but you know how rough it can be to just get across town. Thanks to every bump and pothole on the way from point A to point B, you’ll need to keep your stuff as safe as possible – especially if you’re transporting antiques, art, or other precious cargo.
Pricing Van Lines offers cost-effective specialty moving for all those tough-to-move, high-value items. We’ll send a trained and experienced moving team to wrap, double-wrap, and custom-crate whatever needs the extra TLC, whether it’s a pool table or a piano.

Local Moving FAQs
What’s the difference between local and long distance moving?
Local moves are anything under 100 miles, and within the same state. On the other hand, long distance moves are anything over 100 miles or across state lines (even if the state line is just a mile away).
Local movers and long distance movers all have their own tricks for a more efficient relocation, but long distance movers need additional certification and licensing to operate across state lines.
How much do local movers cost?
A local moving company will cost you between $345 and $8100. It’s a pretty big window, but it really depends on how much you have to move, and how far you’re going.
Local moves are billed per hour, per mover (and it’ll usually take about 2 movers per bedroom). If you want to cut costs, try to use a staging area so your movers don’t have to traipse through your house to grab all your stuff. And try to plan around rush hour, too!
What is custom crating?
If you’ve got something that won’t fit nicely in a standard-issue moving box, you’ll need movers who can build a custom crate around the item in question.
It can be an intensive process, but it also means you’re getting a custom-built crate for extra protection.
At Pricing Van Lines, we’re happy to offer all the packing supplies (and packing assistance!) you could ever need, including custom crating.
When is peak moving season?
Historically, peak moving season has always been the summer. June through August were the worst months to move, due to increased demand and increased prices.
But lately, May and September have been getting pricier, too. We always recommend avoiding the summer months if you’re trying to save every penny.
How can I save money on my local move?
Local moves are billed per hour, and per mover. Due to this pricing structure, it’s in your best interests to keep things as quick and easy as possible for your moving team.
Try to gather all of your belongings in one bedroom or corner, and try to schedule your move far from peak moving season (June through August).
If you really want to save big, book your local move for mid-week, mid-month, and far from major holidays or vacation times.
