Moving Companies in Smithville, TX
Smithville is a small community in Bastrop County, so movers based right in town are scarce. Most residents end up booking crews from nearby Bastrop or the greater Austin area, both of which regularly serve the region for local and statewide jobs.
For a standard local move, a two-to-three-person crew and truck runs $100 to $200 per hour. A full move typically totals $200 to $4,000, with the number climbing along with home size, from a small one-bedroom apartment up through a full four-bedroom house.
For anyone trying to keep costs down, a self-move is the cheaper route: renting a truck for local use costs roughly $59 to $129, before fuel and any hired labor. That option makes sense for smaller loads or short-distance moves where a full crew isn't worth the hourly rate, though it does mean you're doing the lifting yourself.
Given how few movers are based directly in Smithville, it's worth confirming upfront which town a company dispatches from and whether that adds travel time to your hourly bill before you compare quotes.

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 Bastrop County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 30% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
