The travel time is often where a cheap quote unravels

Melton West is a genuine drive from the city, and some movers quote a low hourly rate that only becomes expensive once the actual travel time — both ways — gets added on top. It's a common way for an attractive-looking quote to end up costing more than a straightforward, distance-inclusive one.

Why it's worth asking upfront

A company that builds the real travel time into a written quote has nothing to hide about it. One that avoids the question, or only mentions travel time as an hourly add-on once you're already booked in, is worth a second look before you commit.

What to ask before booking a Melton West move

  • Is the travel time to and from Melton West included in the quoted price?
  • Is the quote written and fixed, or an hourly estimate that can run over?
  • What happens if the job takes longer than the estimate through no fault of mine?
  • Do you charge the same rate for the return leg of the truck?
