Local Movings Pricing
Our local moving company believes in providing a transparent and fixed pricing model that is tailored to your budget, whether you are moving locally or long-distance. Our goal is to make it easy for you to calculate the cost of your move by offering a range of services with professional movers and a truck. When you choose our moving company, you can rest assured that you are getting a comprehensive moving service that includes free shrink plastic, basic tools and equipment, packing and unpacking, disassembling and assembling, complementary intrastate insurance, fuel, and up to 15 miles for local moves*.
When moving, it’s important to have the right number of movers to save money on the total cost of your move. Although the hourly rate for more movers might be higher, it’s worth it because if you have the correct number of movers, your move will be completed much faster. This means that you will save time and money overall. Additionally, having the right number of movers means that they won’t get tired as easily, which will allow them to work faster and more efficiently. They will also be better able to protect your belongings during difficult moving situations, such as moving heavy items, going up stairs, or walking long distances from the truck to your home.

Having new flooring or carpet installed? Is the home being painted? Home improvement companies typically do not move furniture, that means that someone will have to clear out the rooms being renovated. People often hire our movers to have the items moved to another room, garage or portable storage container (POD) outside while work is being done to the home. When the work is complete, our movers will put everything back where it belongs.
If you’ve purchased new furniture you probably need to get rid of the old stuff. Donation pick-up services usually require the items to be on the ground level or outside of the home. Not all furniture delivery services will bring the items into your home either. There are many occasions where they must leave the furniture on the ground floor or outside of the home. We can take over from there, placing the new furniture into the correct rooms.
Want to move a sofa from the living room to the family room? Or swap bedroom suites between two bedrooms? Whatever the scenario, our movers are ready to help move furniture around your home.
If you’re preparing to sell your home you may decide to stage it. If so, you will probably need furniture and boxes moved to different places within the home, garage or POD.

Every move is unique and your move could take more or less time than we estimate. Ultimately, there are many variables that contribute to how long you move takes. It’s important to understand how these variables may affect your total move time to help you plan accordingly.

In a perfect world, your truck or container would be sitting just a few feet from your home. Unfortunately, we don’t live in a perfect world and it’s usually much more complicated than that. When the movers have to climb stairs, use an elevator (reserved or not) or walk a long distance (long carry) it can substantially increase the time it takes to complete your move.
Our time estimates are based on the assumption that your items are already packed and there is minimal assembly/disassembly required. Your moving help can absolutely provide these services for you, however, it will impact your move completion time.
How Billing Works — Transparent, Hourly Rates
At Local Movings, we keep your pricing simple and upfront. Billable time starts when our crew arrives at your pickup location and covers the time spent:
Loading your belongings
Driving between the pickup and delivery addresses
Unloading
Placing items exactly where you want them
This clear hourly structure ensures you only pay for the actual labor performed, with no hidden fees or surprise travel charges.
Trusted, licensed, and insured Houston movers serving a 25-mile radius with transparent pricing.
A long-distance move is defined as any relocation exceeding 25 miles from point A to point B. We maintain a transparent pricing structure. We charge $2 per mile for the one-way distance from the pick-up location to the final destination. In addition to the normal hourly rate for preparing, loading, unloading, and placing, the same hourly rate is applied to the driving time between points A and B, as well as to the return journey from point B back to point A.
Fair and Flexible Rates
While our mileage rates may experience minor adjustments due to economic factors, our commitment to maintaining fair pricing means that you can focus on your move with peace of mind. Our primary goal is to provide a moving experience tailored to your unique requirements.
