Moving Companies in Port Townsend, WA
Moving costs in Port Townsend, WA
Because Port Townsend is a smaller hub, many of the crews that serve it are actually based in neighboring Jefferson, Clallam, or Kitsap county towns.
Rates run $45 to $100 or more per mover per hour, which usually works out to $150 to $200 or more per hour for a standard two-person crew. A small studio or partial local move typically totals $480 to $900, while a medium 2-to-3-bedroom home runs $1,400 to $3,300.
Since your movers may be driving in from Sequim or further down the peninsula, ask how they handle travel time and whether it's included in the quoted hourly rate. Historic downtown hills, ferry schedules, and rural county roads can all add time to a move here, so give your crew a heads-up on your address and access before 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 Jefferson County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 50% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
