How much do local movers cost in Hopkins?
A standard two-mover crew and truck runs $80 to $100 or more per hour; add a third mover and expect $120 to $150 or more per hour. Most local moves in the Hopkins/Twin Cities area total $200 to $1,500, depending on home size and how efficiently the crew works. Moving out of Minnesota entirely shifts pricing to weight and distance, typically $2,000 to $5,000 or more.
What else changes the price?
Clearing out items before moving day is the cheapest way to cut hours off the bill. Confirm upfront whether the quoted hourly rate includes travel time to and from the crew's warehouse, since that's usually billed separately. Tipping isn't required but is customary: plan on roughly $4 to $5 per mover, per hour.
Local moves generally stay within the same city or state, while anything crossing state lines or covering real distance falls under long-distance pricing instead. Across the wider Twin Cities region, combined local and regional moving costs can range from as little as $200 up to $5,787, depending mostly on distance and how much you own.

Hopkins refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country only partly replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.

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 Hennepin County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 13% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
