Moving Costs in Waynesville, MO
Local moves in Waynesville typically run $100 to $200 per hour for a two-mover crew with a truck, billed based on how many workers the job needs.
Fort Leonard Wood Timing
Because Waynesville sits right next to Fort Leonard Wood, local movers get booked up fast during military PCS season, which runs roughly from late spring through summer. If your move falls in that window, book at least four to six weeks ahead.
Protecting Yourself
Missouri law requires moving companies to provide free estimates, so get at least three written quotes and confirm whether each one is binding or can increase once the job is underway. Also ask about travel or fuel surcharges, which cover the crew's drive from their base to your address and back, since some companies charge this as a flat fee and others bill it hourly.
Fees to Watch For
Standard quotes often exclude heavy or awkward items like a safe, piano, or hot tub. If you're on a second floor or have a long outdoor stairway, mention it upfront so it doesn't turn into a surprise charge on moving day. A quick look at the mover listings below is a good next step.

Waynesville refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (2.19 people on average) than the ones leaving (2.18), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $56,097 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Missouri report $42,862. 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 Pulaski County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 63% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
