Moving prices in Canton
Local crews generally bill $140 to $390 an hour depending on how many movers you need. If you already have a truck and just need labor to load and unload, expect $77 to $175 an hour, with typical jobs totaling $310 to $610. Full-service estimates by home size run roughly: studio or one-bedroom $275 to $565, two-bedroom $570 to $880, three- to four-bedroom $1,265 to $2,230, and five-bedroom-plus $2,200 to $3,400 or more. Moves over 100 miles are priced by weight and distance instead.
Ways to keep the bill down
- Ask when the hourly clock starts. Many companies begin billing the moment the crew leaves their office, plus a separate travel or call-out fee.
- Expect a two- to three-hour minimum charge no matter how quickly a small job actually takes.
- Pianos, large safes, hot tubs, and pool tables often carry extra fees for special handling, so mention them when you book.
- Steep driveways or multiple flights of stairs without an elevator can also add to the total.
Being fully packed and ready before the crew arrives is the simplest way to control cost, since standing around waiting for you to finish taping boxes still runs the clock. Take a look at the movers listed just below this page.

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 Cherokee County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 28% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
