I’m moving from the Arvada/Denver area to Pittsburgh and downsizing to a studio apartment.

Top Shared Load Moving related questions

Shared-load moving is a cost-effective way to move items long distance by sharing space in a truck with other customers. Your belongings travel alongside other moves heading in the same direction, making it ideal for smaller loads or flexible schedules.

Shared-load moving is often more affordable than booking a dedicated truck, especially for smaller moves or flexible timelines. Because your belongings share space with other moves already heading in the same direction, you only pay for the space you need rather than the full cost of a truck.

It’s a practical option for interstate moves when timing is flexible, while still ensuring your items are securely packed, transported, and delivered by an experienced mover.

Shared-load moving is typically carried out using box trucks, moving vans, or larger cargo vehicles already scheduled to travel interstate. These vehicles have available space from other moves, allowing your belongings to be transported securely alongside other loads heading in the same direction.

Yes, shared-load moving usually includes help with lifting and loading your items onto the truck, as well as unloading at the delivery location. The exact level of assistance can vary, so it’s best to confirm details with your mover when booking through Airtasker.

Shared-load movers and drivers will take care of loading the items, as well as protecting them with towels, blankets, and packing foam where needed.

Shared-load moving in the US typically costs $0.50–$1.50 per pound for long-distance moves, or roughly $300–$1,500 for small to medium loads traveling interstate. Pricing depends on how much you’re moving, the distance, and how flexible your pickup and delivery dates are.

Because you’re only paying for the space your items take up—rather than an entire truck—it’s often significantly cheaper than hiring a dedicated moving service. Posting your task on Airtasker lets you compare quotes from movers already traveling your route.

Yes, shared-load moving is essentially the same concept as backloading, but it’s the term more commonly used in the US.

Both refer to transporting your belongings by sharing space in a moving truck already traveling in your direction. This helps reduce costs compared to booking a dedicated truck and works well for smaller moves or flexible schedules.

What does a shared-load moving service include?

Whether you need long-distance, interstate shared-load moving or something closer to home, your mover will start by confirming the details. From there, they’ll pick up your items, transport them over the required distance, and deliver them to your agreed destination.

A typical shared-load moving service through Airtasker can include the following:

Plan coordinated routes

Because shared-load moving involves transporting your items alongside other moves already heading in the same direction, your shared load mover will first confirm that pickup and delivery locations align with their planned route. They’ll check available space in the truck and schedule pickup times that work with your timeline.

If you’re still getting organised before pickup, you can also book Taskers for the disassembly of your furniture, or even end-of-lease cleaning.

Load and handle items with care

Your shared load mover will load your items carefully onto the truck, label them clearly with your name and delivery details, and handle heavy or bulky items using equipment like dollies, hand trucks, or lift gates. Moving blankets and straps are used to help protect your belongings during transport.

Transport items securely in a shared truck

Your belongings are transported as part of a shared-load move, which helps lower costs while still prioritizing safety. Although the mover may make multiple scheduled stops along the route, your items remain secured and separated throughout the journey.

Deliver and unload at your destination

Once the mover reaches your destination, they’ll unload your items and place them in your designated area. If someone else is receiving the delivery, confirmation—such as a message or photo—can be provided so you know everything has arrived safely.

After delivery, many customers also book Taskers for unpacking, furniture assembly, or move-in cleaning to get everything sorted faster.
