What movers charge in Greenville
Local rates scale with home size and crew count. A studio or one-bedroom runs $550 to $800, about $145 to $210 an hour with a two-person crew. A two-bedroom runs $1,000 to $1,500, roughly $230 to $290 an hour. A three-to-four-bedroom home runs $2,500 to $4,500 or more, around $350 to $430 an hour with a larger three-to-four-person crew.
Most companies also bill a travel or double-drive-time fee, often equal to about an hour of labor, to cover getting the truck to your home and back to their warehouse — ask how this is calculated before you compare quotes. If you're in a managed townhome complex or apartment building, check whether the property requires a certificate of insurance from the mover; some won't let a truck use the loading dock without one.
Pianos, oversized safes, pool tables, and heavy marble furniture are almost never included in the standard hourly rate, so mention them upfront. Get a binding, not-to-exceed estimate rather than a phone guess. Nobody requires a tip, but crews generally expect somewhere between $4 and $6 an hour for each mover, or a flat $20 to $50 apiece if the job runs a half day or longer.

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 New Castle County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 36% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
