Weather and timing in Phoenix
In Phoenix the coolest part of the day is usually the morning between 4:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m., so summer moves go best with an early start. Source: NWS Phoenix Heat Page.
National Weather Service offices in the Southwest, including Phoenix, define the monsoon as June 15 through September 30, so summer moves need weather flexibility. Source: NWS Tucson: Monsoon Safety.

How a Phoenix move is priced
Interstate moves like this one are billed by the pound. The estimate gives two numbers that matter: the rate per pound and the minimum space reservation. Weight above the reservation costs the same rate. Because the final price follows the actual weight, a weight-based estimate is non-binding.
The fixed-price option is a flat fee for reserving an entire truck. It is binding and comes with guaranteed pickup and delivery. One crew handles both ends, with no accessorial charges.
You see the proof: the net weight and the scale ticket come to you after pickup.
Delivery window
Delivery time window: up to 30 days (company policy). Average delivery time window: 7 to 14 days, counted from your earliest available delivery date.
We count from your earliest available date so the truck does not reach Phoenix before you can receive it. Need fixed dates instead? That is what the reserved truck is for.
Delivery-day extras on a weight-based move
Access at the new Phoenix address can add charges on a weight-based move: extra flights of stairs after the first, a carry longer than 100 feet, elevator use, and a shuttle when the big truck cannot get close. We note the likely ones on your estimate.
Included in the per-pound rate
You do not pay extra for mileage, taxes or tolls, or for weekend dates. Loading, unloading, and furniture disassembly and reassembly are included, as are labeling and an inventory list. We bring blankets and tape at no charge; other materials are charged as used. Every article carries basic valuation at $0.60 per pound; for more, see Baker International (account ID 17421). Not in the base rate: packing (available per pound) and unpacking.
How payment works
Half is paid on the day of pickup and half on delivery. Payment: Cash, Money Order, Visa, or Mastercard (3% transaction fee applies for card payments). If the balance goes on a card, it is due a day ahead of delivery. Discounts: 7% for returning customers and agent referrals, 5% for friend referrals.
