Cost & Pricing
How moving costs — and our pricing — work.
What goes into a relocation budget, and how to think about estimates versus a final quote.
Last updated: June 2026
Every move is priced differently because every move is different. Here's an honest look at what drives the cost — and how we keep it transparent.
Nobody likes surprise costs. We believe in clear, honest numbers from the start. Here's how relocation costs typically break down, and how we work with you to plan a budget you're comfortable with — every step of the way.
Estimate vs. final quote
An estimate is a realistic starting range based on what we know early on. A final quote comes once your specifics are clear — your route, dates, belongings, pets, and the level of support you want. We'll never lock you into numbers before you understand them.
What affects your cost
Distance & route
How far you're traveling and which route you take affects fuel, tolls, and overnight stops.
Pets & belongings
Traveling with animals or moving more belongings adds planning and cost.
Support level
From a single planning call to hands-on coordination, you choose how much help you want.
Common budget line items
- Immigration and permit fees (paid to the authorities, not to us)
- Vehicle import permit and Mexican auto insurance, if driving
- Pet preparation: vet visits, vaccinations, any required certifications
- Travel costs: fuel, tolls, lodging, or flights
- Temporary housing while you find a long-term home
- Our planning and coordination support
Try the calculator, then let's talk
Our cost calculator gives you a realistic ballpark in a couple of minutes. From there, a quick call turns that ballpark into a plan tailored to your move. We're with you from the first estimate to your first morning in your new home.
Good to know — things that can change
Government fees, fuel, insurance, and travel prices change over time, and your final cost depends on your specific move. Use estimates as a guide, not a guarantee.
