Settings › Long distance › Extra fees sets the extra charges on a long-distance move priced by a tariff that doesn't include them.

Before you start

Anyone who can open Settings can change this page. It is kept per move type (pick it at the top). There is no Save button: a box saves when you leave it with a different number, a choice at once. A rate left blank or at 0 is saved as 0.01.

The cards

Extra pickup and delivery rates — 2nd or 3rd pickup price option and 2nd or 3rd delivery price option

  • Per distance, an Extra Pickup Fee (measured from the origin) and an Extra Drop-off Fee (from the destination).
  • Don't allow more than — Largest extra pickup distance and Largest extra drop-off distance. 0 means no limit. A distance above the maximum, or the same distance twice, shows a heads-up but still saves.

  • Charge for the floor you are moving from / to — the origin, the destination, or both.
  • Stairs — the Starting floor, then Stairs rate per 100 cu ft or Stairs flat rate per flight.
