paying hourly rates for labor, while many of the  cheap long distance movers  will generally all 
up labor costs in their overall estimated moving prices.

like packing of your belongings, disassembly, loading, unloading and assembly of your furniture, 
flight charges if movers are required to carry your belongings to another floor, etc. The moving 
price will be affected by the number of movers involved in accomplishing these extra services 
that you have requested.
Charges and surcharges

paper, boxes, mattress bags, and tape which will also be factored in along with the sales tax. All 
these are included in the price shown in the moving companies quotes  and are subjected to the 
sales tax of the company's home state, regardless of the state that you're moving to.
Valuation Coverage
First and foremost it is important to understand that moving companies do not offer insurance, 
but they provide tariff based loss and damage liability, which in moving industry terms is called 
as "valuation." Although the moving company's "valuation" is similar to insurance when any loss 
or damage of your property occurs, it is distinct since it adheres to the series of transportation 
laws.  Moving companies provide two types of valuation coverage to their customers: Released 
Value Protection and Full Value Protection. While released value protection reimburses the 
consumer at a rate of 60 cents per pound, Full value protection reimburses the consumer for the 
replacement value of the goods.
