Relocating Away from Hyannis
A move originating in Hyannis for another state still contends with Cape Cod traffic. Route 132, Main Street and ferry approaches grow crowded on summer weekends and tourist peaks. Departures from May to September call for booking weeks early because road delays add up.
Many Hyannis spots have historic homes, tight driveways or hanging trees that keep big trucks away, triggering shuttle or long-carry extras.
Included protection stands at $0.60 per pound per article. More complete coverage exists for valuable electronics and heirlooms. A full inventory of rooms plus garage and attic stops extra billed time. Estimates made without that list commonly increase once overlooked items from storage areas appear.
In contrast, Cape-only moves use these hourly crew prices.
Hourly Figures for Local Contrast
| CREW | HOURLY RATE | MINIMUM DETAILS |
|---|---|---|
| 2 men and 1 truck | $150 – $170 | minimums running 3 to 4 hours and a start near $600 – $700+ |
| 3 men and 1 truck | $210 – $240 | start near $900 – $1,000+ for the min hours |
| 4 men and 1 truck or 2 trucks | $300 – $340 | larger homes |

Hyannis 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.
