What to Expect to Pay

A full-service local move runs roughly $560 to $1,100 for a studio or 1-bedroom, $860 to $1,900 for a 2- to 3-bedroom home, and $2,100 to $3,350 or more for a 4- to 5-bedroom home.

Details That Change the Bill
Ask exactly how travel time is calculated — some companies charge for the drive from their depot to your home and back, not just time at your address. Heavy or awkward items like a piano, a large safe, or a hot tub often carry a separate surcharge, so disclose them before moving day rather than after. Basic liability coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item, which is worth knowing if you own anything valuable. In warmer months, keep the crew supplied with water and wrap mattresses or fabric items against sudden afternoon rain, and clear low branches or a narrow driveway ahead of time so the truck can park close to your door.

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 Ware County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 58% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
