Studio and one-bedroom moves generally total $560 to $1,100. For a two- to three-bedroom home, budget $1,400 to $3,000 or more; the final amount shifts with volume, stairs, and packing services.

Fees That Catch Movers Off Guard
Condos, co-ops, and managed rental buildings often demand a certificate of insurance (COI). A few lower-cost movers add a COI surcharge or refuse to issue one, which can keep them out of the building. A long carry charge may apply if the truck cannot park near the door, and stair-only access can add a separate fee. Moving during the first or last few days of a month, or from May through September, often carries a 15 to 25 percent price increase. Basic carrier liability usually covers just $0.60 per pound per item, so a 20-pound television worth $1,000 would yield only $12 if broken; ask about Full Value Protection for high-value pieces.

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 Nassau County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 10% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
