Moving Companies in Lancaster, TX
Hourly Rate or Home-Size Estimate?
Most local movers around Lancaster price the job one of two ways: a straight hourly rate, or a flat estimate based on how many bedrooms you're moving. A common hourly starting point is $120 to $160 for a two-person crew, and a full truck with a two- to three-person crew can run $130 to $200 or more depending on the day of the week you book.
Full Service or Labor-Only?
If you've already rented a truck and just need muscle, labor-only crews run $73 to $80 an hour for two workers, with a typical job totaling $320 to $670. A full-service crew with their own truck costs more but saves you the driving and the rental.
| Home Size | Full-Service Total |
|---|---|
| 1 Bedroom | $300 - $600 |
| 2 Bedroom | $700 - $1,400 |
| 3 Bedroom | $1,000 - $2,000 |
| 4+ Bedroom | $1,500 - $3,000+ |

Lancaster refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country only partly replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $85,070 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Texas report $70,941. 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 Dallas County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 8% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
