I'm starting to plan a big move for next year, and the one thing that always gets me is trying to figure out the cost. It feels like a black box sometimes, and I hate getting hit with unexpected fees. Has anyone found a really reliable way to estimate moving costs accurately before getting actual quotes from companies? I'm talking about tools or strategies that factor in things beyond just mileage and house size, like specific items, packing services, or even the time of year. Any insights on demystifying moving expenses would be incredibly helpful!
