How much does an average move cost?

The average cost of a local move ranges from $300 to $1,500 depending on home size, distance, and whether you hire professional help or do it yourself.

What expenses are included in a move?

Main expenses include truck rental, packing materials (boxes, tape, bubble wrap), labor/helpers, fuel, and optionally insurance, temporary storage, and cleaning fees.

How much should you tip movers?

The common practice is to tip between 10% and 15% of the total labor cost. For small moves, $10-$20 per person is a good starting point.

How can I reduce my moving costs?

You can save by getting free boxes from grocery stores, decluttering before the move, choosing weekdays, and asking friends and family for help.
