Local move pricing
| Home size | Hourly rate | Typical local total |
|---|---|---|
| Studio / 1-bedroom (2-person crew) | $120 to $150 per hour | $500 to $850 |
| 2-to-3-bedroom (3-to-4-person crew) | $170 to $250+ per hour | $1,200 to $2,300+ |
Truck fees or fuel surcharges often run a flat $100 to $250+. Some movers bill port-to-port, so a $130 per hour quote can include a 45-minute commute before the truck even reaches your address. Ask whether the clock starts when the crew arrives at your door.
Fees and local quirks
Check driveway and street access ahead of time. Older neighborhoods such as Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs can have narrow streets and tight switchbacks; if a 26-foot truck cannot get close, a long carry fee may be added.
Ask how heavy safes, pianos, and third-floor walk-ups are priced, since some local crews advertise no stair or heavy-lifting fees.
Before you book
- Many reputable local operations do not require an upfront deposit, so be cautious about steep non-refundable cash deposits weeks ahead from lesser-known brokers.
- Confirm liability coverage for slips, trips, and property damage if snow or ice could make walkways hazardous during a fall, winter, or spring move.
- Some independent local movers offer about a 5% discount when you pay the final bill in cash rather than credit.

Colorado Springs 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 (1.8 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.84), 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 $66,889 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Colorado report $61,905. 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 El Paso County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 28% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
