How Much Does It Cost to Move in Scottsdale?

Pricing for a Scottsdale move is either hourly or a flat rate. Home size, how much is stored in the garage and on the patio, and custom crating for art or stone pieces all shape the price.

Hourly Rate Moving

Hourly pricing is ideal for most local Scottsdale moves.

  • Pay based on the time it takes to complete your move.
  • Time starts when movers arrive and ends when the move is complete, plus fixed travel time.
  • Most moves require a 3-hour minimum.
  • Hourly rates vary by season and moving requirements.

Flat Rate Moving

Available for qualifying moves when the scope can be clearly defined in advance.

  • Pay one agreed price, regardless of moving time.
  • Pricing is based on the amount you’re moving, distance, and moving requirements.
  • No additional hourly charges if the move takes longer.
  • Changes to the agreed list of items or services may affect the price.

Preparing for Your Scottsdale Move

Scottsdale prep has one step many cities skip: deciding what can ride in a hot truck and what should travel in your car.

Before your scheduled date:

  • Move candles, wine, vinyl records, and medications in your air-conditioned car.
  • Ask your HOA about truck parking and allowed move hours.
  • Reserve the condo elevator and loading area with management.
  • Trim cactus or shrubs that crowd the walkway to your door.
  • Bring in patio cushions and umbrellas before monsoon winds pick up.
  • Decide what stays in the seasonal home and what moves with you.
  • Set aside pool chemicals and propane, which can’t go on the truck.
  • Have power on and the A/C running at the new home.
  • Keep keys, gate remotes, passports, and documents with you on move day.

Scottsdale Moving Questions Answered

Yes. Many winter residents arrive in the fall and leave in spring, so plan those dates early. We move furniture into a seasonal condo or home, pack a lock-and-leave property before you go, and hold belongings in storage between seasons if you need it.
Yes, once the gate knows to expect us. Guard-gated communities admit service vehicles only with a resident’s approval, and rules differ: DC Ranch, for example, requires gate passes for builders and tradespeople and lets residents add guests through its gatehouse or app. Ask which applies to movers, then add our crew and truck a few days ahead.
Monsoon season runs June 15 to September 30, and storms tend to build later in the day. If a dust storm or downpour arrives mid-move, the crew pauses, closes up the truck, and keeps furniture covered until it passes, then picks up where it left off.
A month of lead time works for most dates. Scottsdale Unified schools start in early August and let out in late May, so family moves bunch up in June and July, and those weeks book first. With less notice, call us and we’ll check crew openings.

Yes. At Poseidon Moving, protecting your furniture is one of our highest priorities.

Every piece is carefully prepared before it’s moved. Our crews use heavy duty moving blankets, stretch wrap, floor protection, and proven loading techniques to help prevent scratches, dents, and shifting during transport.

If you have antiques, artwork, glass, marble, or other high-value items, we can recommend additional protection options such as custom crating or White Glove service.

  • •Propane tanks, gasoline, kerosene, and lighter fluid
  • •Paint, aerosols, household cleaners, and other hazardous chemicals
  • •Fireworks, ammunition, matches, and charcoal
  • •Living things, including plants, fish, and pets

Not sure about a specific item? Just ask your Move Coordinator before moving day, and we’ll be happy to let you know if it can be transported.

Our crews can typically dismount and reinstall:

  • ✓Mounted TVs

Some installations may require additional hardware, specialized tools, or extra time, so these services may incur an additional charge.

If you know you’ll need help with wall-mounted items, let your Move Coordinator know before moving day so we can arrive fully prepared.

Every move is unique, so the most accurate pricing starts with a personalized estimate.

  • ✓Local Moves – Pricing depends on the size of your move, the time required, travel time, and any additional services such as packing, storage, or specialty handling. Based on your move, we’ll recommend either hourly or flat-rate pricing.
  • ✓Long-Distance Moves – We provide binding estimates based on your inventory, the distance, logistics, and any additional services you request.

Yes. Every Poseidon Moving truck arrives fully stocked with the supplies and equipment your move may need.

  • ✓Heavy-duty moving pads, stretch wrap, and tape
  • ✓Dollies, hand trucks, straps, and floor protection

If you’re not fully packed by moving day, let us know before your move date and we’ll make sure the crew brings the packing supplies you need – boxes, dish packs, wardrobe boxes, bubble wrap, mirror boxes, and TV boxes.
