How much do movers charge per hour?

A standard two- to three-person crew with a truck runs $105 to $130 or more per hour in this area.

What if I only need help loading a rental truck?

Labor-only help averages around $77 per hour, with a typical job totaling $365 to $710.

What extra fees should I expect?

Ask about a travel-time charge for the crew's drive to and from your home, and a surcharge for heavy items like a piano, a large safe, or a pool table.

How do I get an accurate quote?

Share the size of your home and whether you need full packing or just loading help — that alone narrows most estimates considerably.

With those numbers as a baseline, the local movers below are a reasonable place to start comparing.

Households arriving from another state report $74,141 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Minnesota report $67,117. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Otter Tail County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 45% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
