Understand your estimate

What affects your moving cost?

Six things move the number most — the calculator already factors them in.

Volume

The biggest driver. Sea freight is priced per cubic metre (CBM); a bigger home means more volume and higher cost. Declutter first.

Route & distance

The Gulf is a short, cheap hop; the West (USA/UK/Canada/Australia) is far costlier and slower. Region sets the base rate.

Sea vs air

Air costs several times more than sea. Use sea for full households; air only for small, urgent shipments.

Service type

Household is the base. Office and data-center moves cost more — specialised handling, insurance and downtime planning.

Season & timing

April–June and month-end cost 20–30% more in India. Booking 8–16 weeks ahead gets better rates.

Insurance & extras

Transit insurance (about 1.5–3% of value), packing materials, storage, and car or pet add-ons all sit on top of the freight.

Spend less

5 ways to cut your moving cost

01

Ship less

Sell or donate bulky, low-value furniture and appliances — rebuying abroad often beats shipping them.

02

Share a container (LCL)

For a part-home load, groupage shares a container with others — the cheapest sea option.

03

Book early & off-peak

Avoid April–June and month-end; booking 8–16 weeks ahead unlocks better rates and slots.

04

Compare verified movers

Get three itemised, door-to-door quotes — prices vary widely for the same move.

05

Right-size the mode

Don't pay air prices for non-urgent goods; air-ship only a small essentials box.

Moving cost calculator — FAQ

How accurate is the moving cost estimate?
It's an indicative door-to-door range, not a fixed quote. It's built from real freight and relocation benchmarks and set about 22% below market, but your exact price depends on surveyed volume, your route and the season. Use it to budget, then get a free itemised quote.
What does the estimate include?
Door-to-door: professional packing, origin handling, sea or air freight, both-end customs clearance, and delivery. Transit insurance (about 1.5–3% of value) and optional storage or car/pet shipping are usually quoted on top.
Why are your prices lower than other quotes?
We deliberately position about 20–25% below the typical market range and show you the market figure for comparison. You still get verified, insured movers — just at a better, transparent price.
How is shipping cost calculated — by weight or volume?
Household sea freight is priced by volume (cubic metres / CBM), not weight. That is why decluttering — shipping fewer cubic metres — is the most effective way to cut cost.
Is the calculator free?
Yes — completely free, with no sign-up. Getting verified quotes is free too; you only pay the mover you choose.
