I was looking at some sites to reply to Pling's comment, and at least one movers calls the building to be moved a "recycled house" (!). One site pointed out the differences in between new and old construction (focusing on the positives of the old, like workmanship, not surprisingly, rather than the benefits of new, such as greater energy efficiency).

Also, while distance is a factor (obviously), the costs depend also on how wide it is and how big it is (to empty then fill). Around here, I can't quite imagine having enough money to do this myself...
