LocalMovers.com Launches an Online Marketplace to Help People Book Trusted Movers

New marketplace calls movers, negotiates prices, and provides fixed quotes at no cost to consumers nationwide

NEW YORK, Oct. 30, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- LocalMovers.com today announced the launch of its moving marketplace. Customers can request quotes from vetted movers, compare competing bids, and book directly with LocalMovers.com. The marketplace is driven by robust research and publicly verifiable data, making it the most comprehensive source on U.S. moving companies.

The Problem We Solve

Industry best practices recommend getting at least three quotes to avoid unfair pricing and scam movers. The need to repeatedly provide move details—building access, room-by-room inventory, packing requirements—to each mover is a significant time burden. Even if customers complete thorough inventories and create a shortlist, they are not equipped to estimate the market's best price or negotiate with movers.

LocalMovers.com eliminates this time-wasting problem. Users input their specifications once, get matched to vetted providers, and receive accurate, comparable quotes. This also ensures transparent price discovery. We turn a process that used to take 15 hours into one that takes 15 minutes.

Technology and Operations

• AI-Powered Intake: AI automates inventory from video and detects needs from cleaning and storage to utilities setup.
• Clear Pricing: Upfront fixed-price standardized quotes and multiple bids from licensed and insured movers.
• Bidding Process: We call 5–10 movers for you and negotiate—free to customers. Movers pay only when you book.

How It Works

1. Tell LocalMovers.com basic details
2. Get competing quotes
3. LocalMovers.com helps you compare, negotiate, and book

All steps are supported by real humans you can talk to.

• Over 1 billion data points consolidated
• 1,000s of vetted movers

Our Story

— Bretton Auerbach , CEO of LocalMovers.com

"After growing BuildZoom into a marketplace founded on billions of construction data points, I recognized the same opportunity in moving. LocalMovers.com applies the same playbook: use data transparency to build trust, and digitize and automate the vendor negotiation and bid-gathering process."
