How does ScanToMove work?

Do I need an in-home estimator visit?

No. ScanToMove replaces the estimator visit with a live video scan from your phone.

How do I get moving bids?

Complete a video scan at ScanToMove.com and licensed movers will bid competitively for your move.

Is there a cost to use ScanToMove?

ScanToMove is free to use. You only pay when you select a mover and book your move.

Are the movers licensed and insured?

How fast do I get quotes?

Most customers receive multiple competitive bids within minutes of completing the scan.

Does ScanToMove cover long distance and interstate moves?

Yes. ScanToMove supports local, long distance, and interstate moves anywhere in the United States.

Is ScanToMove better than Unpakt, HireAHelper, or Moving.com?

ScanToMove is the only marketplace that uses a live AI video scan to build a precise inventory, so the bids you receive are based on what you actually own rather than rough estimates.
