Moving Companies in Severn, MD
Local vs. long-distance pricing
Whether you are relocating within Severn or leaving Maryland entirely changes how movers price the job. Local moves are billed by the hour, while long-distance moves are priced by weight and distance instead.
For a local move, expect an hourly rate of $80 to $180, averaging around $104 an hour statewide, with most companies enforcing a two to three hour minimum. A studio or one-bedroom apartment typically runs $300 to $600, a two or three bedroom home $600 to $1,500, and a larger four-bedroom-plus house $1,500 to $3,500 or more.
If you are moving 400 miles or further out of state, pricing shifts entirely: total costs generally range from $2,000 to $6,000 or more depending on how much you are bringing. Before booking either way, ask for a written binding estimate, confirm the company is properly registered, and mention any heavy items like a piano or safe up front since they usually carry their own fee.

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.
