Arnold Moving Costs
Local moves under about 50 miles are billed by the hour based on crew size. A standard two- to three-mover crew with a truck runs $80 to $180 an hour. If you rent your own truck and just need labor, rates average around $76 per mover per hour, with total labor-only jobs running $340 for a one-bedroom apartment up to $630 or more for a large five-bedroom house.
A Pitfall to Avoid
Full-service local moves within Anne Arundel County, truck and crew included, typically total $600 to $1,500 or more for a two- to three-bedroom home. The final number depends heavily on how long loading and packing actually take, plus any bulky or specialty items, so a quote based only on bedroom count can undersell the real cost. It also pays to check that the crew size in your quote actually matches your home -- a two-person team sent to a large house takes longer, and you pay for every extra hour. Get a walkthrough-based estimate rather than a phone guess to avoid a higher bill on moving day.

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 Anne Arundel County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 22% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
