Request an interstate estimate with the pickup and delivery addresses. A short driving distance does not make the local hourly table a fixed interstate price.

If some belongings go to the next home and others to a family member or storage, make a separate list for each group. Include the address, recipient and any time restriction for every delivery.
A simple color system can help you keep the groups apart while packing. Use a written destination and room label as well, and show the crew which group is which during the pickup walkthrough.
Keep luggage, keys, documents and belongings travelling with you apart from the truck load. That leaves fewer decisions to make while the movers are carrying furniture out.
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.
Milvus is based in Waltham. Ask how travel and minimum billable time apply to your Tyngsboro appointment, including any added pickup or delivery stop.
For a useful comparison, give each mover the same furniture list, carton count, date and access information. Add packing labor, supplies, agreed furniture preparation and applicable extra charges to the discussion.
If your destination or inventory changes, update the request before the appointment. A different route, another stop or newly added stored contents can change the work required.
Describe vehicle clearance, the proposed loading location and the distance to the door.
Include exterior steps, internal flights, basement contents and any separate entrance.
Send dimensions and photographs of narrow turns. Flag pieces assembled inside a room.
Check doors, stairs and any building appointment at the next address too.
Pack suitable cartons, identify receiving rooms and tell us what still needs attention.
List glassware, lamps, artwork or other accepted items for a packing assessment.
Include cupboard and stored contents, materials and the time needed before loading.
List what needs temporary storage and what you will keep with you.
Review duration, conditions, access and pickup or handling charges.
Provide the receiving address and discuss timing and redelivery charges.
Have a different situation? Call 857-895-8955 and talk it through with Milvus.
Request an interstate quote with both addresses, the inventory and required services. Confirm availability and the delivery arrangement for your route.
The published local table is not a fixed interstate price. Have the actual route and complete service scope quoted.
Include each destination, its inventory, access, recipient and any time restriction before booking.
Yes. Identify what you will prepare and what you want Milvus to pack so materials, labor and timing can be agreed.
Ask how the complete route and travel time are calculated in your estimate, together with minimum billing and other applicable charges.
Explain that before booking. Discuss storage and a later delivery arrangement rather than assuming the truck can wait indefinitely.
Tell us where the belongings are going, your date and the size of the load. Include packing, stairs and any additional address.
