By job size, a small 1-to-2-bedroom local move typically totals $600 to $1,200, and a larger 3-to-5-bedroom move runs $1,500 to $3,500 or more, plus extra if you add full packing service. Most local companies also charge a separate travel fee — often a flat hour of labor — to cover getting the truck to your home and back.
Maple Valley's traffic bottlenecks around SR 169 and the Maple Valley Highway can slow a crew during peak commute hours, so an early morning start tends to keep costs down. Many neighborhoods also have private or gravel driveways with HOA rules on truck size, so check with your HOA and let the movers know if a large box truck won't fit down your street. Standard liability coverage is minimal — about $0.60 per pound per item — and cash tips of $20 to $50 per mover are customary for a half-day job.

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 King County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 10% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
