The Big 5: Lead Provider Comparison
Here’s how the major lead aggregators stack up for moving companies in 2026:
| Provider | Est. CPL | Lead Type | Exclusivity | Integration |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Billy.com | $12 – $25 | Shared | Low (3-5 movers) | ⭐⭐⭐ Zapier |
| Thumbtack | $20 – $80+ | Pay-per-contact | Medium | ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Direct API |
| Angi (HomeAdvisor) | $15 – $65 | Shared & Exclusive | Low (high saturation) | ⭐⭐ Complex Webhooks |
| Moving.com | $35 – $100+ | Shared | Medium (verified intent) | ⭐⭐ Email/Parser |
| Google LSA | $40 – $120 | Exclusive Calls | High | ⭐ Manual/Call tracking |
Provider Deep Dives
1. Billy.com — The Volume Play
The Verdict: Cheapest option for raw volume, but lead intent is often lower. Leads are sold to 3-5 movers simultaneously.
Best For: Movers with aggressive sales teams who can call within 30 seconds. If you’re not first, you’re last.
Integration: Supports standard Zapier connections, making it easier to pipe into MoveRight than Angi.
2. Thumbtack — The Millennial Favorite
The Verdict: Higher CPL, but you only pay when a customer responds to your quote. Conversion rates are typically 2-3x higher than shared leads because the customer actively chose to engage.
Best For: Movers who want quality over quantity and can afford to wait for better-qualified leads.
Integration: Robust Partner API allows decent two-way syncs with CRMs like MoveRight.
3. Angi (formerly HomeAdvisor) — The Old Guard
The Verdict: Massive volume but famously difficult refund processes for “bad leads” (wrong numbers, window shoppers). Expect a 3-5% conversion rate on shared leads unless automated speed-to-lead is used.
Best For: Movers willing to play the numbers game and who have systems to respond instantly.
Integration: Difficult. Often requires email parsing or complex Webhook setups as they gate their direct API.
4. Moving.com — High Intent, High Cost
The Verdict: Expensive, but leads are often verified through real estate partners (Realtor.com network). A single long-distance booking often pays for a month of leads.
Best For: Movers targeting long-distance and interstate moves where margins justify higher lead costs.
5. Google LSA — The Premium Choice
The Verdict: Highest exclusivity—when someone clicks your LSA listing and calls, that lead is yours alone. Premium pricing reflects premium quality.
Best For: Established movers with strong Google reviews who want to dominate local search.
The MoveRight Index: Automation Changes Everything
We analyzed anonymized data from MoveRight users in Q4 2025 to measure the impact of lead automation. The results speak for themselves.
| Lead Source | Manual Conversion | With MoveRight | The Lift |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thumbtack | 8.2% | 22.4% | +173% |
| Billy.com | 2.1% | 6.8% | +223% |
| Angi Leads | 1.5% | 5.2% | +246% |
| Organic (SEO) | 12.5% | 28.1% | +125% |
Key Insight
The lift is highest on Angi and Billy.com (+200% range). This proves that speed matters more than quality for shared leads. Since Angi sells the same lead to 4 movers simultaneously, the first SMS wins 60% of the time.
“Buying leads without MoveRight is like pouring water into a bucket with holes. We were spending $2,000/month on Angi and closing nothing. Turned on MoveRight’s ‘Instant Quote’ SMS, and we booked 4 jobs in the first week.”— Sarah Jenkins, Owner, MetroCity Movers (MoveRight User since 2024)
