With Cubic Feet the counting of boxes and furniture is more exact. With Weight the estimator is forced to assign an “average” weight to ALL boxes of the same size (without looking inside them to see what its contents hold.) For example, a box full of books would be estimated at the same weight as a box full of linens.
All estimators in the moving industry are trained to estimate the size of move inventory with cubic feet. The only difference is that weight estimators have to convert cubic feet to weight at the end of the estimate using a mathematical equation. This makes the process more complicated, and less straightforward than it needs to be for the customer.
