What is a 3-hour minimum moving charge?
If a mover is charging by the hour, you usually don’t pay for just one hour of service; they usually give you a 3-hour minimum move time. A 3-hour minimum is the least amount of time you would be charged for, when paying by the hour, which means, whether your move takes 45 minutes, or 3 hours, you pay for 3 hours (select the right type of mover for you particular move). You may also be charged a travel time charge in addition to your 3-hour minimum. Always find out what services your 3 hour minimum price or charge include, such as assemble and disassemble of large furniture, packing material (if applicable), quilted blankets, also what type of payment is expected, and when it is required.
