TWO MEN AND A TRUCK’s prices
Due to TWO MEN AND A TRUCK’s franchise model, it’s impossible to get accurate prices for the company’s services. Each franchise sets its own rates, and there is no pricing standardization, which means that your price will vary depending on where you live.
To avoid giving customers incorrect or outdated pricing information, the company forgoes listing rates of any kind on its website. However, we were able to gather some info about how TWO MEN AND A TRUCK calculates its prices so you can get a better sense of what you’ll pay.

Long-distance move pricing
Most TWO MEN AND A TRUCK franchises charge by weight and mileage for long-distance moves, so the distance you’re moving and the weight of your shipment are what dictate your price.
According to the TWO MEN AND A TRUCK website, a few additional factors may affect your price:
- Flights of stairs
- Distance between the truck and the door at your load and unload locations
- Time it takes to load and unload
- Driving time
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK also lets you choose between two long-distance delivery options: expedited shipping and Value Flex®.
Expedited
With this option, the same team that loads your truck also drives it to your new location and unloads it. Expedited service is much faster and more convenient, but it can also be much more expensive than the Value Flex option.
Value Flex®
This option isn’t as expensive as expedited shipping, but it takes longer and comes with some risks. Instead of being loaded into a truck, your belongings are packed into a large crate that gets shipped (with other people’s crates) on a trailer. When your crate arrives at your destination, a local TWO MEN AND A TRUCK team delivers and unloads it at your new home.
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK’s services
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK provides full-service local and long-distance moves for homes of any size, though as we mentioned earlier, some franchises can only handle shorter moves. One franchise we contacted only accepts moves within 800 miles, but we were referred to another nearby franchise that accommodates larger moves, so this shortcoming is easily bypassed in most areas.
If, however, there is only one TWO MEN AND A TRUCK franchise in your area—and it doesn’t do long-distance moves—you may need to work with a different company.
With TWO MEN AND A TRUCK, you can also get short- and long-term storage, even if you’re not moving. This is handy if you still need to finalize your move-in date, don’t have enough space for all of your keepsakes and collectibles, or just need to free up a spare bedroom.
While these services are essential, they aren’t unique. Most moving companies can do everything we’ve listed so far, but there are a few features that make TWO MEN AND A TRUCK stand out.
