One crew for the whole Carefree job
Send the inventory plus access details for both ends of the move. Note stairs, elevator arrangements and where the truck can stand so the crew can prepare the agreed work.
- Start with the hourly figure. Weekdays, two movers and a truck run $150 an hour; Saturdays run $165. Any travel charge to Carefree appears in the line above. Allow for a minimum charge covering two hours. Work beyond that is added in 15-minute steps.
- Then think about the driveway. Carefree’s semi-rural foothill lots can put distance between the truck and the door. Tell us how far the truck can park from the entrance: a carry past 75 feet costs $75 for each additional 75 feet, quoted before we begin.
- Then the truck itself. Walk the route the truck will take and send photos of the driveway, the street turn and any overhead or width limits.
The published one-bedroom Phoenix–Tucson example costs $1,760. It does not price an interstate destination.
