Moving Company Guide publishes data only when we can document where it came from, what it covers, how it was cleaned or calculated, and what its limitations are. We do not publish fabricated market averages or synthetic samples as observed moving-industry data.
Current Data Availability
No public datasets are currently available.
We publish data here only after the dataset, definitions, methodology, and limitations are ready for public use.
See how Moving Company Guide handles calculator assumptions, uncertainty, price data, dataset standards, and source verification.

- Cleaning rules

What We Do Not Publish as Observed Data
We do not present the following as real, observed market data unless it is actually supported by a documented dataset:
- Fabricated moving-cost averages
- Synthetic user samples presented as real data
- Made-up city or state statistics
- Unsupported provider performance metrics
- Fake review statistics
- Invented hourly, per-mile, or per-pound rates
- Opaque trust, safety, or scam scores

Synthetic examples may be used for testing or demonstrations, but they must never be presented as observed market data.
