Local moving rates in Rome
Labor-only help, loading and unloading if you have your own truck, generally runs close to $45 an hour for each mover, with most companies enforcing a minimum of three to four hours. For a full truck-and-crew package, rough totals by home size are: one-bedroom $300 to $600, two-bedroom $700 to $1,400, three-bedroom $1,000 to $2,000, and four-bedroom or larger $1,500 to $3,000 or more. Final cost also depends on truck size, weight, and whether stairs or steep inclines are involved.
Details that shape the final bill
- The hourly clock generally keeps running through loading, driving, and unloading, so traffic delays add to the cost.
- If the truck cannot park close to your door because of tight streets or apartment layouts, expect a long-carry or stair fee.
- Basic liability coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item, so ask about full value protection for anything expensive like electronics or antiques.
- Insist on an in-home or video-walkthrough estimate rather than a phone guess, so you get a binding or not-to-exceed price in writing.
Tipping is not required but is standard practice, roughly $20 to $40 per person for half a day of work, and more for a full, physically demanding day.

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 Floyd County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 43% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
