Ferguson, MO Moving Costs
Short version: local moves under 25-50 miles are billed hourly. Standard crew, standard truck, standard rate. Cross that distance and the pricing model changes entirely.
| Home Size | Total Cost |
|---|---|
| Studio / 1-bedroom | $440 - $1,100 |
| 2 to 3-bedroom | $1,100 - $3,150 |
| 4+ bedroom | $2,300 - $4,300+ |
Base rate: $100 to $135 an hour for a 2-person crew and truck. A bigger, 3-person crew adds roughly 30% to 40% to that rate. Minimum booking: 2 to 3 hours, no exceptions. Studio jobs run short. Larger homes run long — more rooms, more hours, higher total.
Included: truck, fuel surcharges, dollies, blankets, strapping. Not included: stair and elevator fees, long-carry charges if the truck cannot park close, heavy-item handling for pianos or safes, packing materials and labor, and a travel fee for the drive to and from the address. Ask about each before booking. Get it in writing. A verbal number means nothing on moving day.

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.
