Typical rates
A two-mover crew with a truck runs $120 to $150 per hour; adding a third mover typically adds $30 to $50 per hour but can cut total job time. Most companies enforce a two-to-three-hour minimum plus a travel or fuel fee to cover the drive out to Nelson.
Typical totals
A two-bedroom move generally runs $1,100 to $1,300, about five hours of work. A three-bedroom runs $2,200 to $2,500, around eight hours. A four-bedroom-plus home can reach $2,800 to $4,000 or more over nine to ten hours.

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 Buffalo County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 55% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
