Haulest Moving Cost

Haulest Moving Cost adds three shortcodes to any post, page, or widget:

• [haulest_moving_cost] prints a table of moving cost ranges by home size and distance for the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom.
• [haulest_licence_check] prints a box where a reader types a USDOT or MC number (or a legal name) and opens the live FMCSA authority record on haulest.com.
• [haulest_quote_button] prints a button to request written quotes from licensed movers.

The ranges are planning ranges compiled by Haulest from published industry tables and public quote examples. They are not bids and not a first-party median. A written quote from a licensed mover still wins. Haulest is not a carrier and does not operate trucks. Shortcode options

• market: us (default), ca, or uk.
• distance: all (default) for the full table, or one band: local, regional, mid, long, cross-country.
• title: your own heading.
• button: 0 hides the quote button under the table.

Examples:

• [haulest_moving_cost market="us"]
• [haulest_moving_cost market="ca" distance="long" title="Toronto to Vancouver, what people pay"]
• [haulest_licence_check title="Is your mover licensed?"]
• [haulest_quote_button text="Compare moving quotes"]

Where the data comes from The plugin fetches https://haulest.com/data/moving-costs-2026.json once every 12 hours and caches it with a transient. If haulest.com cannot be reached, the copy bundled with the plugin is used. No reader data is sent anywhere: the table renders on your server, and the licence box and quote button are plain links that open haulest.com in a new tab. Each table shows a "Data by Haulest" link.
