Binding pricing

A written estimate starts with a defined shipment.

Confirm your estimate type and carrier before booking. A binding estimate covers the shipment and services it lists; additional requested services and qualifying access operations can affect charges. Use FMCSA's interstate estimating guidance and the carrier's written terms to compare your options. For a move within one state, check the applicable state rules.

Know what the estimate covers

  • Confirm whether the estimate is binding or non-binding and which carrier accepts it
  • For an interstate binding estimate, identify the shipment and services covered by the agreed charges
  • Ask about additional requested services and qualifying impracticable operations
  • Read the applicable carrier terms before loading; do not treat every later service as included

Compare the same scope

  • List packing, materials, unpacking and specialty handling as included or excluded
  • Describe stairs, elevators, loading access, carrying distance and proposed vehicle size
  • Itemize storage, warehouse handling and redelivery if needed
  • Resolve missing charges and exclusions in writing before choosing a provider

Document handling responsibilities

  • Ask who supplies furniture wrapping, mattress protection and packing materials
  • Identify furniture that needs disassembly and confirm who reassembles it
  • Agree on building and floor-protection requirements for both addresses
  • Keep an inventory and condition records, with an assessment for unusual or valuable items

Plan changes and delivery

  • Tell the carrier about inventory, service, date or access changes before loading
  • Ask how changes are documented and which additional-charge rules apply
  • Confirm accepted payment methods and pickup and delivery windows
  • Keep the estimate, shipping documents, valuation selection and update contact together

Military Moves, frequently asked questions

Do you offer a military discount on moving?

Yes, active-duty service members and veterans qualify for a military discount on their written estimate. Just tell your coordinator you're military when you book and they'll apply the current rate. Full-value protection is available on every military move.

Can I use AmeriSafe for a PPM (DITY) move and get reimbursed?

Yes. AmeriSafe supports Personally Procured Moves with certified weight tickets and DoD-format invoices, plus the packaging documentation your finance office needs for reimbursement. Coordinators are experienced with military relocation timelines across all five branches and the National Guard.

How much does a PCS move cost with a private mover?

Pricing is quoted in writing (binding on qualifying moves), driven by distance and the truck space your household needs, typically $2,000–$5,800 for a 1-bedroom and $4,500–$13,500 for a 3-bedroom home on long-distance moves, before the military discount. The written price is the same whether you have 6 weeks of lead time or 6 days: fuel, tolls, and labor are built in, and stairs and access are surveyed and priced in up front.

What if my orders come through on short notice?

AmeriSafe holds expedited pickup windows for short-notice orders and can typically dispatch a truck within 48–72 hours of a confirmed booking. The written price does not change because your timeline is compressed.

What happens if base housing isn't ready when I arrive?

Storage in transit is available, climate-controlled at 55–75°F in padded wood vaults with item-by-item photo inventory, until your housing opens up. Redelivery is scheduled with 5+ business days' notice, and AmeriSafe moves families to and from every major installation, including Fort Liberty, Camp Lejeune, Norfolk, San Diego, JBLM, and Lackland.
