If you're leaving Butler, in Morris County, know that New Jersey allows movers to charge "double drive time" on local jobs, legally billing you for the trip from their warehouse to your home and back again. Ask exactly how that travel time is calculated before you book, since it stacks on top of the hourly rate.

Out-of-state pricing shifts to weight and mileage instead of the clock. For comparison, a local move out of a studio or one-bedroom with a two-person crew takes two to three hours and runs $450 to $700; a two- to three-bedroom home takes four to seven hours with a three-person crew and runs $900 to $1,900; a house with four or more bedrooms can run a full day and cost $2,000 or more.

Hourly rates run $100 to $150 for two movers and $150 to $200 or more for three. Budget tips separately - $20 to $40 per mover for a half-day, and $50 or more per mover for a full day's work.

Households arriving from another state report $142,134 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in New Jersey report $129,747. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

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 Morris County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 17% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
