“How Much Does it Cost to Move a One (1) Bedroom Apartment?” is an essential guide for Bridgeport apartment owners preparing for their next move.
The complete guide on one-bedroom apartment move costs explains that moving costs for one-bedroom apartments can go up to more than $4,000 for a long-distance move, but can be as low as several hundred dollars for local moves.
The fees included in the total moving cost cover everything from work hours and packing to moving items up and down stairs, for no-elevator apartments. Movers.com recommends you get a thorough estimate before hiring a mover.
“Be sure to ask your movers detailed questions when they are giving you the on-site estimate,” explains the report. “Prices may be different depending on what floor apartment you are moving out of or the availability of parking at the building's entrance. Make sure you divulge all pertinent information about the buildings when getting an estimate for a more accurate quote.”
You'll also find expert tips on how to reduce moving costs for one-bedroom apartments - including doing your own packing, and planning parking in advance.
A section of the guide discusses moving without professional help. In this case, the major costs include truck rental and packing supplies - and while this option is more time-consuming, you'll definitely save a lot.
