Seems like a fair quote. I moved from the west coast using uboxes. and hired their $160 for 2 hours movers.
Came out to about $5500 for a truck to take my 3 bedroom across the US and drop off the boxes at my house.
So $8000 for a mover to use their truck is about right. It of course should be cheaper but everything is inflated right now.
The only thing is any mover can at the last moment say "well we need $4000 more to move your stuff because you have a lot more than we expected." It's happened to many people. My boss experienced this. The mover said they needed $6000 more.
