Before digging into the numbers, take a minute to collect written prices from the mover listings below so you can sanity-check them against the figures here.

Rates and totals

On local jobs under 100 miles, each mover on the crew bills at $50 - $90 hourly, with a separate charge for the truck. By home size, expect:

  • Studio or 1-bedroom, 2 movers: $500 - $950
  • 2-bedroom, 3 movers: $1,100 - $1,800
  • 3-bedroom, 4 movers: $1,900 - $3,200
  • 4+ bedrooms: $3,500+

Local wrinkles that change the price

  • Hillside homes often mean carries past 75 - 100 feet or multiple stair flights, both billed extra, so describe your access when requesting the quote.
  • Winding canyon roads and the coastal highway are tight for big trucks, and some streets need a city parking waiver for commercial vehicles.
  • Moving mid-week or mid-month outside the May - September rush can trim 15% to 25% off the labor cost.
  • Expect a travel-time charge, often a flat hour of labor, for the truck's run to and from the depot; confirm it appears in the written estimate.
  • Included liability pays just $0.60 per pound per article, so look at full-value protection if you own expensive electronics or furniture.

40% under 50 mi 12% 50–250 mi 39% over 250 mi 9% not attributed

51% of departures went farther than 50 miles. Beyond that range moves are priced by weight and distance, and a state line means the carrier needs interstate authority.

Households arriving from another state report $105,468 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in California report $103,467. 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 Orange County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 9% 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?

I’m moving a that’s .

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.
