A standard two-mover crew and truck runs $150 to $225 per hour total; a larger three-to-four-mover crew for a bigger home runs $250 to $350 or more per hour. If you've rented your own truck and just need labor, hourly rates average around $80.
By home size, expect a studio or one-bedroom to total $330 to $900, and a two-to-three-bedroom home $900 to $2,500 or more. Nearly every company also charges a separate flat travel fee to cover driving to your home and back, and most enforce a two-to-three-hour minimum regardless of how quickly the job wraps up.
Tell your mover in advance about stairs, tight hallways, or heavy items like a piano; hiding these until moving day is the fastest way to end up with a surprise fee. Tipping is customary at $4 to $5 per mover per hour, or roughly 15% to 20% of the total split among the crew.

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 Dakota County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 20% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
