The Clock Keeps Running on Moving Within Your Building

and So Does the Uncertainty

Most movers bill a short job like this by the hour, often with a minimum. You get an estimate before the crew starts, but the final price isn't decided until the last piece is in place. Wait for the elevator, and you pay for that too.

Wall clockThat's a lot of uncertainty for a move down the hall.

Red Cat does it differently.

We agree on the price before we start, so you know what you're paying before the first piece is lifted.

Hourly vs. Flat Rate

Why Let the Clock Decide What You Pay?

Moving a few pieces between rooms or floors sounds like an hour of work until the elevator is slow and the piece doesn't fit the door. An hourly crew bills for every minute of that; we price the job.
