What is the hourly rate for local moves?
Local moves under 50-100 miles in Massachusetts follow an hourly model based on crew size and truck. Two movers and a truck cost $100 - $130 per hour for studio or one-bedroom apartments. Three movers and a truck run $140 - $180 per hour for two- to three-bedroom homes. Four movers and a truck cost $180 - $230 per hour for four or more bedroom houses. Licensed companies typically charge a minimum of two to three hours.
How much do moves cost by home size?
Studio or small one-bedroom apartments often total $300 - $900. Two-bedroom homes or apartments average $900 - $1,500. Three- to four-bedroom houses usually range $1,500 - $2,800.
What seasonal and other factors matter for Falmouth moves?
Falmouth traffic fluctuates with seasons. Peak tourist season from Memorial Day through Labor Day brings bridge traffic and Route 28 slowdowns. Off-season from October to April usually allows lower rates and better scheduling. Travel time fees commonly cover one hour or a flat trip charge. Ask about coverage for awkward items like pianos or hot tubs. Basic liability insurance pays 60 cents per pound per item, so a dropped $1,000 television yields only $30. Request a written binding or not-to-exceed estimate.
How are long-distance moves priced?
Moves leaving Cape Cod or moving out of state are billed by total weight and distance, typically $2,000 to $5,500+ based on load size.

Falmouth refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country replaces them almost one for one. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (1.56 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.45), 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 $119,079 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Massachusetts report $174,209. 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 Barnstable County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 31% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
