Moving costs in McDonough
Local crews charge by the hour, and rates vary with crew size and how the job is booked.
| Service | Typical Cost |
|---|---|
| Rate per mover | $40 - $90 / hour |

| Labor-only (your truck) | $75 - $80 / hour |

Most companies enforce a two- to three-hour minimum plus a trip fee, and the hourly clock usually keeps running while the truck drives between your old and new address, so traffic adds to the bill.
Fees that catch people off guard
- Stairs, long walks to the truck, or heavy pieces like a piano or safe can add $50 to $150 or more per obstacle if you do not mention them upfront.
- Basic liability coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item, so a 30-pound, $1,000 television would net just $18 if it is dropped. Ask about full value protection for anything pricier.
- Booking midweek or mid-month instead of the busy May-to-September, end-of-month window can shave 15 to 25 percent off the total.

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 Henry County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 24% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
