Moving Companies in Ballwin, MO
Browse the movers below to compare local options before you commit — in the Ballwin area, a standard two-person crew with a truck typically runs $110 to $140 per hour.
A few numbers worth knowing. Adding a third mover raises the hourly rate by roughly 30% to 40%, though the extra hands often finish the job faster, which can offset some of the cost. Nearly every company enforces a two- to three-hour minimum, so even a quick job will not come in under that floor. A separate flat fee — usually $50 to $100 — covers the truck drive from the company lot to your address and back.
If your job is small — just a few heavy items or a single room — some crews offer reduced minimums instead of the full-house rate, which is worth asking about when you call around.

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 St. Louis County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 18% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
