It can also get confusing with all of the different charges some moving companies will throw at you. Some terms you may see include base fee, hourly rate, truck fee, and the cost per mover.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>The size of your move, whether you\u2019re moving local or long-distance, and the specifications of your home can all play a part in your total cost, as well. For instance, going up two flights of stairs will take your moving team much longer than the same move would at a one-level home.\u00a0 Looking for another way to save money?

This includes a truck, loading, and unloading, as well as some light assembly and disassembly.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<ul class=\"column-count-1\">\r\n<li><strong>Studio<\/strong>: $600-700<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>1 bedroom<\/strong>: $650-$750<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>2 bedroom<\/strong>: $800-900<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>3 bedroom<\/strong>: $1000-$1,300<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>4+ bedroom<\/strong>: $1150-$1,450<\/li>\r\n<li><strong>Long-distance move<\/strong>: There are a number of factors that contribute to the price of a long-distance move. Therefore, the range can vary widely. Let\u2019s just say you\u2019ll need to save up enough to cover a price that has, at a minimum, four digits.\u00a0 For example, a <a href=\"\/nc\/raleigh\/long-distance-movers\/\">long-distance move to Raleigh<\/a> from Washington, DC might cost $2,500, while a <a href=\"\/ga\/atlanta\/long-distance-movers\/\">long-distance move to Atlanta<\/a> from New York City might cost $4500.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 id=\"h-price-ranges-for-a-labor-only-in-home-or-loading-unloading-move\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Average_Price_of_a_Local_Labor-only_Move\"><\/span><strong>Average Price of a Local Labor-only Move<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\r\n<p>A local labor-only move will be substantially cheaper.

But remember that there\u2019s a lot baked into the total. Let\u2019s explain those new vocabulary terms so you know what you\u2019re paying for.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Hourly Rate <\/strong>&#8211; An hourly rate is an amount that you\u2019ll pay per mover or per hour. Depending on the moving company, some will prorate additional hourly time beyond your reservation. Bellhop pro-rates in 15-minute increments. These are the prices that are most likely to vary depending on the time of day or day of the week that you are looking to move. For instance, your hourly rate might be higher on a Saturday morning than on a Wednesday afternoon.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Truck Fee <\/strong>&#8211; This one is pretty self-explanatory, this is the cost of adding a truck to your move. This will take your move from labor-only to full-service. It is often cheaper\u2014and less of a hassle\u2014 to book your truck through your moving company than renting one on your own.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Cost per mover<\/strong> &#8211; Fortunately, this one is as simple as it sounds. This is the cost of each person working your move. With some services, some people may cost more than another. The cost often depends upon their experience level.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><strong>Base Fee- <\/strong>This is a one-time charge for your move. This is typically a concessionary cost to organize your truck or any other moving resources you request. This is different than an hourly rate.<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" class=\"wp-image-6544 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" alt=\"How much do you tip movers?

There&#8217;s an idea that hiring movers is something that&#8217;s reserved for the ultra-rich. We hope this has showed you that movers can be something you can afford, too.<\/p>\r\n<p>Here&#8217;s what one person had to say about hiring local movers through Bellhop:<\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cScheduling a move with Bellhop was easy to do online. They quickly put together a quote. The\u00a0 moving team led by Winston with D&#8217;shea, Keith, Shaquille, and Julito was diligent, showing up 5 mins early and worked tremendously hard the full time. The key is to success is to fill out the inventory form as thoroughly as possible, so Bellhop can create an adequate estimate regarding time. &#8211; Ann R&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>We hope that our exploration of how much movers cost has shown you that you don&#8217;t have to take out a second mortgage to use moving services!
