Before You Book, Check This
- Local moves generally run $339 to $2,979, with an average labor rate around $90 an hour and most companies setting a two-hour minimum.
- Ask whether the travel or truck fee covers a one-way trip or a round trip from their base to your home.
- Moving between May and September, or right at month's end or start, can raise rates by 20 to 30 percent — midweek and mid-month bookings tend to run cheaper.
- Get a binding estimate rather than a non-binding one, so the price can't grow once the job is underway.
- Walk every closet, garage, and attic before quoting so the crew isn't surprised by extra boxes on move day.
- Hazardous items like propane tanks, aerosols, bleach, and open liquid containers can't legally go on the truck.
- Confirm the company's registration through the FMCSA SaferSys database before signing anything.

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 Kenton County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 27% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
