Accounting software for moving companies: deposits, crews and storage
Take a booking deposit, invoice the move by the hour or at a flat rate once the truck is unloaded, sell boxes and packing materials from stock, bill monthly storage on a schedule, and pay crews with overtime and tips.
For local and long-distance movers and storage operators in the US and Canada, $399.99 once.
No card, no account. Windows 10 and 11. United States and Canada.
What it means
In practice
Deposits that hold the date
The booking deposit is held as a liability for that customer. On moving day, apply it to the final invoice and collect the rest.
Crews, overtime and tips
Hourly payroll pays overtime on the long days. Tips can be paid out on the paycheque, where they are taxed as wages.
Storage that bills itself
A memorised monthly invoice bills each storage customer automatically when due. Late accounts can be charged finance charges, and statements show what is owed.
Hourly crews with overtime and tips.
Local, long-distance and storage, each with its own margin
Classes for local moves, long-distance and storage split the P&L. Fuel on the company card and truck rentals carry the class too.
Trucks are fixed assets, each linked to the loan that financed it, so the balance sheet shows what you own and what you owe.

Questions people ask
Before you download
How do I handle the booking deposit?
Record it as a customer deposit when the move is booked. It stays a liability until you apply it to the moving-day invoice.
Can crews be paid tips through payroll?
Yes. Add tips to the paycheque; they are included in taxable wages for the employee's withholding.
Can I bill storage every month?
Yes. Memorise a monthly storage invoice for each customer and schedule it to be entered automatically when due.
Does it calculate interstate tariffs or valuation coverage?
No. Price the move in your quoting tool and enter the final charges in AcboBooks.
