Moving Cost Calculator

A local move averages $1,000-$2,500, while a long-distance move ranges from $2,500-$7,500+ depending on distance and home size.

DIY moves are typically 50-75% cheaper than full-service, but require significant time and physical effort. Hybrid options offer a middle ground.

The standard tip is 15-20% of the total labor cost, or $4-8 per mover per hour for a typical move.
