When the Scale Decides, So Does the Uncertainty.

Many long-distance movers price by weight or cubic feet. You get an estimate before the move, but the real price only shows up after your things are loaded and weighed or measured.

That's a lot of uncertainty to carry across state lines.

Red Cat does it differently.

We set your price before moving day from your distance and inventory, so you know what you're paying before the truck leaves your street.

Weight vs. Flat Rate

Why Let the Scale Decide What You Pay?

Most long-distance movers price by weight or cubic feet. You get an estimate, then the loaded truck goes on a scale, in the DMV usually the one at the Jessup truck stop off I-95, and the real price shows up later. With Red Cat, the price is set before the truck leaves your street.

Priced by the Pound.

  • You get an Estimate

    A guess at your weight or cubic feet, not your final price.

  • Weighed After Loading

    The loaded truck heads to a scale, often the Jessup truck stop, before your price is known.

  • The Real Bill Comes Later

    Extra pounds or cubic feet show up on the final bill.

Red Cat Movers

The Cure for the Common Mover.

  • A Price, Not an Estimate

    Set before move day from your inventory, not from a scale ticket.

  • No Surprise Charges

    No extra pounds or cubic feet added to your bill on delivery day.

  • The Perfect Move

    Focus on your new state, not on babysitting the crew.
