Your hour is worth, UAH

Damage risk, UAH

A DIY move is 'free' only if your time is worthless. Full DIY price = van rental + fuel + your hours × hourly value + damage risk (furniture without packing experience) + back injuries. Movers do in 4 hours what you do in 10 — and they're insured. Hybrid: you pack, pros carry.
