Moving with an hourly rate is generally accepted as the cheapest way to move locally in Brisbane. However, be sure to take note of the time blocks being used when your removalist bills you at the completion of your local move.
Some moving companies in Brisbane charge in 30-minute, or even 1-hour blocks for local moves. Now this might seem innocuous at first glance, but consider what you're actually agreeing to: This means that if your local move runs 5 minutes into the next hour, you could be charged for 30 minutes, or even 1 hour of time that you didn't use!
Now I'm sure you think that isn't particularly fair. Well the good news is, neither do we!
At Your Local Movers, we don't believe in charging people for time they didn't use. That's why we bill all of our local moves in Brisbane in 6-minute increments, which means if your move runs 5-6 minutes into the next hour - then that's all you pay for!
It's a much fairer system, and it means you'll save money in the long run, which is never a bad thing.
So when you receive an hourly rate quote from a removalist in Brisbane, make sure you watch your blocks - anything over six minutes is too much!
