When pricing moving and storage jobs, consider labor costs as a significant driver. On average, professional movers charge between $25 to $150 per hour, depending on location and crew size. For a standard two-person crew, expect to set rates between $60 to $100 per hour, which is essential for competitive bids.
In addition to labor, factor in other costs such as fuel, truck fees, and materials needed for packing. Be transparent with clients about what is included in your pricing, as this builds trust and helps manage expectations. Analyzing your typical move sizes can also help refine your pricing strategy and ensure profitability.
