Local moves around Smyrna are billed by the hour, while long-distance moves are priced by weight and mileage instead. A studio or one-bedroom typically runs $300 to $600, a two- to three-bedroom home averages $1,000 to $2,200, and a four-bedroom-plus home can reach $2,500 to $4,000 or more. Moving out of state generally starts around $4,500 to $6,000.

What drives the bill up

If the truck can't park directly in front of your building — common in tight complexes or under HOA rules — expect a long carry fee, and stairs or a missing elevator add their own surcharge. Most local companies also enforce a two- to three-hour minimum plus a separate travel or fuel charge for driving to and from their base, so ask whether that travel time is flat or billed at the full hourly rate. Bulky items like a piano, safe, or pool table usually cost extra too, so mention them before the crew shows up.

Coverage and timing

Included liability coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item if something is damaged, so ask about full value protection if you own expensive electronics or solid-wood furniture. Rates also climb between May and September and around the first or last days of the month, so a mid-week, mid-month booking is usually cheapest. Confirm any Georgia mover carries a valid state certificate.

With those numbers and fee traps in mind, the local movers listed on this page are worth a look before you settle on a date.

Households arriving from another state report $77,620 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Georgia report $71,253. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

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 Cobb County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 15% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
