Farmington labor-only help typically runs $335.83 to $727.52, with hourly rates for that kind of help landing around $81.18. A full-service local move, truck included, generally falls somewhere between $300 and $1,500 or more, depending on the size of the home and how many hours the job takes.
A few charges tend to surprise people who haven't moved recently. Many crews add a travel or trip fee to cover the drive from their base to your address and back, and it's worth asking whether that's flat or billed hourly. Standard liability coverage is thin: at $0.60 per pound per item, a $1,000 television weighing 30 pounds is only reimbursed for $18 if it's dropped, so ask about fuller protection if you own anything valuable. Pianos, large safes, heavy appliances, and extra flights of stairs often trigger fees that don't show up in a quick phone quote, so mention them before the crew arrives.

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. Francois County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 37% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
