Best Movers in Los Alamos, HI

Before you decide, take a look through the local movers below -- rates vary more than you would expect.

For each mover, local crews generally bill $25 to $50 an hour; a standard two- to three-person crew with a truck comes to about $100 to $200 or more per hour. A full local move usually totals $300 to $1,500 or more depending on home size. A long-distance move instead runs $2,000 to $5,000 or more, based on weight and mileage. Full packing service adds $40 to $75 per hour per packer on top.

Insist on an in-person or video walkthrough before accepting a quote, and get a binding, not-to-exceed estimate so the price cannot grow on moving day. Rural or unincorporated addresses sometimes carry an extra travel fee if the crew has to drive further from their base. If the truck cannot park directly at your entrance, or if there are stairs, ask about long-carry charges upfront. Items you pack yourself typically are not covered if they break in transit -- pay the crew to pack anything fragile you want protected. Check a mover registration and complaint history with the federal database before signing anything. Tipping is standard at $4 to $6 per mover per hour, or 15% to 20% of the total bill split among the crew.
