Treadmills, power racks and multi-gyms are bulky rather than fragile — the cost mostly comes from disassembly, weight-plate handling, and getting frames through doorways and stairwells intact.
| Type | Typical weight | Estimate |
|---|---|---|
| Treadmill / elliptical | 180–300 lb | $1,210–$1,705 |
| Power rack / weight bench | 300–500 lb | $1,775–$2,510 |
| Full home gym / multiple pieces | 600+ lb combined | $2,755–$3,890 |
For a power rack / weight bench, expect roughly $1,775–$2,510 over the 985-mile move.
Long-distance specialty movers often combine multiple items on one truck run, so the per-mile rate drops as the route gets longer — short moves pay a premium for a dedicated trip.
Size/weight class of the home gym equipment, how many flights of stairs at pickup or delivery, and how far in advance you can book a truck.
