- Full-service local moves with a truck and crew: hourly rates span $150 to $180+, averaging roughly $175. Total costs for a 1-bedroom to 3-bedroom move usually run between $400 and $1,500+ depending on stair count and heavy items.
- Long-distance moves: priced by weight, volume, and distance rather than by the clock, so request a binding or guaranteed-not-to-exceed estimate to cap your total.

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 Oneida County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 45% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
