The destination changes the estimate
Choose your route and the help that goes with it
| Your move | What to include in the request |
|---|---|
| Within Massachusetts | Both addresses, dates, inventory, loading and receiving access |
| North Shore to or from Boston | Building appointments and vehicle arrangements at both ends |
| Outside Massachusetts | Full destination, inventory and delivery requirements for an interstate estimate |
| Moving with storage | The stored inventory, expected duration and later receiving address |
| Packing before the move | Rooms or items, materials and preparation timing |
A regional service area is not a single moving address. Send the actual properties and any additional stops so the route and workload can be reviewed. Availability and timing are confirmed for the appointment.
One receiving plan for the whole load
Keep furniture placement and carton groups clear
At the next home, clear the route to the rooms where larger furniture belongs. Tell the recipient which cartons go with each room and which belongings are being held for another destination.
The property may need a driveway arrangement, a street loading position or a reserved service entrance. Check those details with the owner or manager and share fixed access windows before booking.
When the dates do not line up, storage needs an agreed scope: inventory, duration, conditions, access, handling and redelivery charges. Include essentials you need immediately in a separate group that stays with you.
Rates and your estimate
Published North Shore local moving rates
Milvus publishes five date categories for local moving. The table shows the hourly rate for a crew with a truck. Confirm the category for your date and the complete booking terms before accepting your estimate.
| Date category | 2 movers + truck | 3 movers + truck | 4 movers + truck |
|---|---|---|---|
| Discount | $110/hr | $160/hr | $210/hr |
| Regular | $120/hr | $170/hr | $220/hr |
| Subpeak | $150/hr | $200/hr | $250/hr |
| Peak | $180/hr | $230/hr | $280/hr |
| Highpeak | $260/hr | $360/hr | $460/hr |
Additional mover and additional truck rates are $55/hour each in the Discount category, $65/hour each in Regular, Subpeak and Peak, and $75/hour each in Highpeak. Ask which crew and vehicle arrangement fits your inventory.
The hourly rate is one part of the estimate. Confirm minimum billable time, travel, packing labor and materials, access-related work and any other applicable charges. A move is not booked by viewing these rates.
The crew rate is only part of the calculation
Ask for the full route from the Waltham base
Milvus is based in Waltham. Have travel and minimum billing explained for your North Shore appointment, together with the date category, crew and vehicle arrangement. Two similar inventories can have different overall workloads because of access, preparation and route.
If you compare moving estimates, use the same addresses, belongings and packing scope. Check labor and materials, furniture preparation, additional stops and any applicable access-related charges.
Do not use the local hourly table as an interstate price. For an out-of-state home, request the route-specific estimate and receiving arrangement.
Choose the work to hand over
Moving help can start before the truck arrives
