Moving quote
A moving form for your website and the table its responses land in. It asks where from and to, home size, the miles the visitor enters, the moving date and packing help. Each response becomes one request you follow from new to quoted to won or lost.
Use it when
Use it when a mover prices by home size, the distance the customer enters and the moving date, and wants an instant estimate on the website. Add it from the Sites editor's Forms panel or the sidebar's Add; it creates a new Moving quotes table, or writes into one you already have when that table holds the same fields.
Use something else when
Storage-only enquiries can use the general Quote request form. A mover that needs an in-home survey before any number can leave the calculator unconnected and price each request itself.
What it adds or changes
- Website: Moving quote form
- App: Moving quotes
Connect your calculator in Store before publishing
It brings these with it:
Settings
| Setting | What it does | Default |
|---|---|---|
| Form name | The form's title as visitors see it; every other line of wording is reworded later from the form's settings. | Get a moving quote |
| Response workspace | Where responses are kept: a new Moving quotes table, or an existing table of this business that holds the form's fields. |
How it works
It runs its own built-in automation, called Moving quote. Tell staff about a new response: read a new response, choose the staff destinations and email its full details. Empty recipient groups send nobody.
Example
Two Hands Moving, a fictional local mover, connects its moving calculator. A visitor moving a two-bedroom home 12.5 miles on a Saturday sees the business's price with its weekend rate; the request lands as new with both addresses, the miles and the date.
Limits
Distance is the miles the visitor types; nothing looks up a route. The moving date is a requested day, not a confirmed booking. Packing help and supplies are noted, and priced by your own products. No visitor gets an automatic reply. Staff notices come from the table's own automation, which starts paused until recipients are set.
