Abstract: A method for estimating costs associated with relocating a plurality of items is provided. An interface is provided to a device. The interface receives user input data associated with relocating a plurality of items and displays a plurality of cost estimates that includes a total moving cost. The plurality of cost estimates are based at least in part on predefined item cost and user input data. At least one of the plurality of cost estimates is dynamically updated after at least a portion of the user input data is received. At least one of an estimate sheet and moving tariff form is provided. The estimate sheet is based at least in part on the plurality of cost estimates and received user input data. The moving tariff form provides a list of at least one charge and service associated with the plurality of cost estimates.

Abstract: A method is provided. User input data corresponding relocating a plurality of items is received at a user interface. An initial cost for the moving company to relocate the plurality of items is determined. Availability data is requested. The availability data indicates whether moving resources of the moving company are available for use during a time frame for relocating the plurality of items. Resource utilization of moving resources of the moving company during the time frame is determined based at least in part on the availability data. A determination is made whether the resource utilization meets a predefined threshold. The initial cost is modified based on whether the resource utilization meets the predefined threshold. A determination is made whether the user accepted the modified initial cost. The relocation of the plurality of items is scheduled by reserving at least some of the moving resources during the time frame.
