Increase in booking conversion with instant, binding quotes

You're a master of logistics. You shouldn't also have to be a full-time call center.

Move quotes that take too long to produce

A customer submits a quote request for a 4-bedroom house. You're on-site and can't build the inventory list or calculate the cubic footage until tonight. By then, they've booked with a competitor who gave them an instant online estimate.

Deposit collection with no automated system

You email a quote and the customer approves it, but you have no way to collect a deposit online. You spend two days playing phone tag to get a credit card number, delaying the schedule and risking the booking.

Crews with no job briefing documents

Your crew shows up to a job with a verbal summary. They don't know about the fragile antique wardrobe or the narrow staircase access. The move takes longer, items get damaged, and the customer is unhappy.

No follow-up for repeat moves or storage referrals

You moved a family into a rental two years ago. Now they're buying a house, but you never followed up. A competitor gets the job. You also miss out on referring them to a partner storage facility for a commission.

AGENT SPOTLIGHT

See your agents in action.

Front Desk Agent

Book a 3-bedroom local move without a single call

A prospect texts your company number at 9 PM on a Tuesday. The agent understands it's a local residential move, asks for the inventory list via a simple web form, confirms the address has no access issues, and offers three available time slots from your calendar. The customer books and pays the deposit on the spot.

Quoting Agent

Generate a binding long-distance quote in minutes, not days

A customer requests a quote from Chicago to Austin. The agent uses your pre-set tariff and cubic footage rates, factors in fuel surcharges and estimated travel time, and generates a binding quote including a detailed inventory list. It sends the quote via email and text, with a link to accept and pay the deposit.

Dispatch Brain

Give your crew the full job picture, automatically

A local move is booked for Friday. The Dispatch Brain automatically assigns the right truck and a 3-person crew. The night before, it sends the crew lead a digital job sheet with the full inventory, photos of fragile items, and specific notes about parking and access. The crew arrives prepared and efficient.

YOUR AI TEAM

6 agents. Built for movers.

Front Desk Agent

Answers every call, text, and web lead 24/7. Qualifies leads by move type (local, long-distance, junk removal), inventory size, and timeline. Gathers all necessary details like addresses, flights of stairs, and specialty items. Books qualified jobs directly onto your calendar based on your crew's availability.

Quoting Agent

Generates accurate, binding quotes from your custom price book. Handles local moves (hourly rates), long-distance moves (weight/cubic footage tariffs), and junk hauling (by the truckload). Follows up automatically on all open quotes until they are won or lost.

Dispatch Brain

Organizes your daily and weekly schedule. Assigns the right crew and truck for each job based on size and distance. Creates optimized routes to minimize drive time and fuel costs. Sends detailed digital job sheets to crews with inventory lists, access notes, and customer contact info.

Reputation Agent

Sends a review request via text 3 hours after the move is completed. Monitors your Google and Yelp profiles for new reviews and drafts personalized responses for your approval. Alerts you to any negative feedback privately before a public review is posted.

Frequently asked questions

Can the Quoting Agent handle both hourly local moves and weight-based long-distance moves?

Yes. You configure your pricing for each move type. The agent asks the right questions to determine the job type and applies the correct pricing model, whether it's hourly rates for a local job or tariffs for an interstate move.

How does the agent create an accurate inventory list without a home visit?

It sends the customer a link to a simple, mobile-friendly form where they can walk through their home and tap items to add them to the list. For complex moves, you can still schedule a virtual or in-person walkthrough.

Can Dispatch Brain assign specific crews or trucks to certain job types?

Yes. You can tag crews with skills (e.g., 'piano moving certified') and assign specific trucks for long-distance or large-capacity jobs. The agent will match the right resources to the job requirements.

How are deposits handled for booked moves?

When a customer accepts a quote, they are prompted to pay the deposit you've configured (e.g., 10% or a flat fee) via a secure Stripe link. The job is not confirmed on the calendar until the deposit is paid.

Does the system calculate travel time and fuel costs in its quotes?

For local moves, you typically build that into your hourly rate. For long-distance moves, the Quoting Agent can factor in your pre-set fuel surcharges and estimated drive time based on mileage to ensure your quotes are profitable.

Does it sync with my existing calendar?

Yes, it performs a two-way sync with Google Calendar. The agent sees your real-time availability when booking and automatically adds all confirmed moves to your schedule.

Can my moving crews use this on their phones?

Absolutely. Crews get a simple mobile view of their daily schedule, detailed job sheets for each move, and the ability to mark jobs as complete, all from a web app on their phone. No app store download needed.

How is this different from a tool like Supermove or Movegistics?

Those are powerful but complex ERPs built for large moving companies with dedicated office staff. Sterling is built for owner-operators and small teams. Our AI agents *are* your staff, actively booking jobs and managing logistics, not just providing software to do it yourself.

Can I import my customer list from another system?

Yes. You can import your customer list via a simple CSV file. Most moving companies are able to get their entire customer history into Sterling in under 15 minutes.

Is there a free trial to see if it works for my business?

Yes, we offer a 14-day free trial with full access to all agents and features. You can set up your pricing and have the agents booking real jobs within an hour.
