Binding estimates A binding estimate means that you are required to pay the stated price based on the approximate weight of the customer’s belongings, even if the shipment weighs more than or less than the estimate. Binding quotes are provided to you in writing, generally after an in-home survey and are binding on the carrier. With a binding estimate, your mover will not be allowed to ratchet up the price at the last moment. However, if you add up any items later to be moved, or request any other extra additional services, then your mover may revise the original estimation before your shipment is loaded. There are many perks of binding estimates. Firstly, you don't have to worry about your mover charging you last minute. Secondly, if your belongings weigh more than the estimated weight, then you don't have to pay any extra charges. However, if the weight of your belongings is less than estimated, even then you will have to pay the price quoted on the binding quotes. Regardless, binding estimates do give peace of mind which appeals to many people. Not to Exceed Moving Quotes Online Binding Not to exceed or Guaranteed not to exceed moving estimates are the most popular moving company quotes especially if you are moving long distance. Again, this quote is based on the approximate weight of the customer’s belongings and provided to you in writing, generally after an in-home survey and are binding on the carrier. While you aren't charged extra if the shipment weighs more than estimated, however, if the weight of your belongings is less than originally estimated, you will only have to pay the cost of shipping for the actual weight. While hiring the best long distance moving companies , you should not hire a mover based on non-binding quotes as there is no assurance the final cost will not be more than the estimate . While the mover cannot require you to pay more than the amount of the estimate, plus 10% at the time of delivery, however, you are required to pay any remaining charges within 30 days after your shipment is delivered. This is why it is always safe to get a binding or not to exceed moving a quote in writing before you hire them.
