DIY moves might seem like the cheaper route—but hidden costs add up fast. At D3 Delivery, we’ve helped many clients who started solo, then called us in to save the day. Here’s what often gets overlooked:

1. Truck Rental Fees Add Up

Most rental companies charge a daily base rate plus per-mile fees. Don’t forget fuel, insurance, and late return penalties.

2. Equipment Rentals

Need a dolly? Moving blankets? Furniture straps? Those cost extra. Professional movers like bring all the gear—and know how to use it.

3. Time Off Work

Many DIYers forget to factor in the cost of missed income. Professional help saves hours or even days.

4. Damaged Items

Scratched floors, broken glass, dinged doors—repairs and replacements can cost more than the move itself.

5. Personal Safety

Moving injuries are common. Sprained backs, smashed fingers, pulled muscles. Why risk it? Hiring D3 Delivery gets you muscle, tools, experience, and insurance—without the hidden costs.
