What Is "Grace Volume" and Why It Matters
Grace volume is Movd's built-in buffer that prevents surprise charges. Traditional movers like JP Urban Moving estimate your volume, but if you have slightly more stuff, they hit you with overage fees on move day. Movd's packages include grace volume to absorb minor differences:
Economy: 20 cu ft
If estimate is 100 cu ft, you're covered up to 120 cu ft at no extra cost
Preferred: ~25% grace
If estimate is 200 cu ft, you're covered up to 250 cu ft at no extra cost
Premium: ~50% grace
If estimate is 300 cu ft, you're covered up to 450 cu ft at no extra cost
Standard Moving Process vs Movd's Package Approach
Traditional movers like JP Urban Moving quote hourly rates without accounting for variables that trigger upcharges. Movd's packages include grace volume (20 cu ft, ~25%, or ~50% depending on tier), absorbing estimation errors and preventing surprise bills.
Hourly Rate Model (Traditional)
❌
Clock starts when crew leaves their depot - you pay for their travel time
❌
Every delay (traffic, parking, elevator wait) adds to your bill
❌
Volume estimates often wrong → surprise overage fees on move day
❌
Watching the clock creates stress and rushed handling
❌
Final bill often 20-40% higher than initial estimate

Why NYC Movers Choose Flat-Fee Packages Over Hourly Rates
These customers researched traditional movers but chose Movd's package system instead
"Premium package was worth every penny. Got the packing credit, boxes, and 50% grace volume. My stuff exceeded the estimate but no upcharge because of the grace. Final bill: $920. Traditional movers quoted me $1,450+."

"The grace volume is the killer feature. Preferred gives you 25% cushion so minor estimation errors don't cost extra. My move was slightly over estimate but zero additional charges. Traditional movers would've hit me with overage fees."
Jessica P.
Park Slope, Brooklyn • 2BR walkup
"Grace cubic footage is brilliant. I had way more stuff than estimated but Preferred's 25% grace absorbed it all. No angry crews demanding more money. No surprise invoices. Just smooth, professional service at the price I was quoted."
