Moving cost insights and original research
How ReviewMyMover aggregates consenting customers’ reported moving costs with sample-size and privacy safeguards.
Building a useful research sample
Aggregates remain unpublished until at least 20 distinct, consenting contributors have complete approved records. Calculator estimates and imported snapshots are not substituted for actual reported costs.
How the research works
- Contributors submit final service costs and optional quoted amounts in USD, with route and move size.
- Research permission is separate from posting a review. An editor checks completeness before including a submission.
- One record per stable contributor identifier is used. This limits duplicates but does not independently verify every payment or move.
- Each overall, route, move-size, or quoted-versus-final group needs at least 20 distinct contributors before publication.
What these numbers can and cannot show
The median is the middle amount after sorting, or the average of the two middle amounts for an even sample. Reported costs can include different packing, storage, access, and protection choices. We do not adjust for distance, shipment size, timing, or inflation. Self-selection and reporting errors limit the sample; it is not a market average, a quote, or a prediction.
Privacy and withdrawal
Public research contains aggregates only, not contributor names, email addresses, receipts, or individual payment records. Contact our editorial team to request withdrawal. Admins can reject an approved contribution and it will stop contributing to the next report.
