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 usually cost 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 movers

Get 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 computed from our indicative pricing model, and your exact price depends on surveyed volume, your route and the season. Use it to budget, then request an itemised quote — free for you.
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.
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.
What does the calculator cost me?
Nothing — it’s free for you, with no sign-up. Requesting quotes is free for you too; you only pay the mover you choose.
