Local moves are billed by the hour, and the clock runs continuously from arrival to the last item unloaded, including travel time, which is legally billable in Texas. Expect around $103 an hour for a standard crew with a two-hour minimum. A one-bedroom local move typically totals $300 to $700, a two- to three-bedroom runs $700 to $2,000, and a four-bedroom-plus job can reach $1,500 to $3,450 or more. If you just need loading or unloading help, labor-only rates run about $75 an hour, with jobs totaling $312 to $677. Moving out of Lufkin entirely, long-distance pricing shifts to weight and distance, starting around $2,500 and climbing past $8,500.
A few things change the final bill: movers legally cant transport hazardous materials, propane, bleach, aerosols, live plants, or open food, so plan to carry those yourself. Heavy items like a piano or gun safe often trigger a surcharge if you dont disclose them in advance. Basic liability only covers $0.60 per pound - a 30-pound TV worth $1,000 pays out just $18 if it breaks - so ask about Full Value Protection if you own anything valuable. Cash tips of $20 to $50 per mover for a half day, or $50 to $100 for a full day, are customary.

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 Angelina County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 47% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
