Camden: local vs. long-distance costs
A local move around Camden and Kent County, under 50 miles, typically runs $350 to $1,100 depending on home size, billed at $100 to $180 an hour for a two-to-three-person crew. A long-distance move out of state follows a different pricing model entirely, generally $2,500 to $8,500 or more, driven by weight and mileage rather than hours. If you rent your own truck and just need loading help, labor-only crews cost noticeably less than a full-service move.
What to ask before you book
Confirm how travel time is billed — many companies charge a flat trip fee or double-drive time to cover getting the truck to you and back to their warehouse. Insist on a written estimate that's binding and capped at a maximum price, since a loose verbal quote can legally rise once the job runs long. If you're moving into a managed apartment or condo, check whether the building requires a certificate of insurance from the mover in advance.
Rates also climb in late spring through summer and around the start or end of the month, so a mid-month, off-season date tends to cost less. Walk through every closet and the garage before requesting quotes — underestimating your load is the fastest way to blow the budget.

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 Kent County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 76% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
