Why is charging by inventory for long distance moves better?

Why is charging by inventory for long distance moves better?

There are companies that charge based on the weight of the shipment. They will weigh the truck before your move, and once again after your items have been loaded. Your final cost will be based on the actual weight of your shipment. This might seem great, but because there is no way to weigh your furniture before your actual move – all you get before the pickup is an “estimate”. Most of these companies will even go as far as offering you a “binding estimate” but it is a binding only for the estimated weight. One pound different and the estimate is no longer binding. We made it simple – you give us a list of items that you want to have moved and we guarantee your price for that list as described. Easy to understand, no need to guess the weight of your furniture, just tell us what you have and we will give you an easy to understand binding price for your move.
