Moving Companies in Bedford, TX
Prices in Bedford follow a pretty predictable pattern, so you can get a real number before you even pick up the phone. Right now the average job here runs about $885, pulled from hundreds of local customer reports.
If you're in a studio or one-bedroom, expect $350 to $750, and crews usually bill that at $75 to $150 an hour for two movers. Bump up to a two- or three-bedroom place and you're looking at $750 to $1,600, since it takes a bigger three- or four-person crew running $120 to $200 an hour. Already got your own truck or a rented container and just need muscle to load and unload? That labor-only help runs $300 to $700 total, or roughly $75 an hour per mover. Heading out of state or across a big stretch of Texas turns it into a long-distance move, and those start around $2,500 and can climb past $8,500 depending on how much you own and how far it's going.
One more thing worth knowing: a tip isn't required, but $4 to $5 per mover per hour is the local norm if the crew takes good care of your stuff.

Bedford 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 (1.76 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.78), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.

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 Tarrant County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 12% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
