What does a full move cost by home size?
A two-bedroom home runs about $1,800. A three-bedroom runs about $4,500. A four-bedroom or larger can reach $5,300 to $8,300, depending on weight, stairs, and add-ons like packing.
What keeps the bill lowest?
Doing your own packing and driving, then hiring a crew just to load and unload, keeps the bill lowest. A smaller move with fewer boxes also cuts the hours you pay for.
Local move or long-distance?
A move under 100 miles counts as local and is regulated by the state, billed by the hour. Anything beyond that shifts to pricing based on distance and weight rather than time on site.
Home size, distance, and how much packing you need all shift the final number, so the mover directory below is worth a look before you settle on a budget.

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 Lafayette Parish rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 27% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
