I will be moving from Seoul to Busan next month and I may want to use a moving company. My move should be relatively easy as I don't have much heavy lifting, but I will be moving with a dog. He is a mid-sized, friendly dog and I figure I can put him in a crate and move him with everything else.

Has anyone used a moving service and how much did it cost? I don't need them to pack up anything really. I just need the wheels and a few extra hands. It will be an easy move apart from the commute.

Any recommendations and price points?

Thanks in advance.

200,000w is what you'd probably pay for 포장이사. If you live in a 1 room, then everything will fit in their smaller truck.

That kind of move, you don't pack anything. Just put your dog in a crate and stand back while the moving company packs everything, moves it to the new place, unpacks everything. I believe that includes a cleaning lady to clean your new place also.


Some people might think its expensive, but I think its completely worth it.

Have you seen the �Seoul to Busan� part?

Your price might be accurate when moving within the same city.
Someone should spend a whole day driving down there and back and easily a 100,000 for gas.

To the OP.: try to get a quote from this guy:

Woo Bong Sin, 011-217-8944

He is a good guy and speaks English. He has the usual 1 ton blue truck.
Won�t be cheap because of the distance. Thus February is a high season in moving. I�m just guessing but it will be around 400,000.

Nope, completely missed it. However, it looks like Busan to Seoul (just moving no packing) is about 200k-250k won.
