Moving Companies in Puyallup, WA
Local moves around Puyallup are billed hourly, with a two-mover crew and truck running $100 to $150 per hour, and a three-mover crew running $150 to $210 per hour. By home size, a studio or one-bedroom apartment typically totals $500 to $1,000 over roughly 3 to 5 hours. A two-bedroom home runs $1,100 to $2,200 over about 5 to 7 hours. A three- to four-bedroom house runs $2,200 to $4,500 or more, often needing a full day or a larger crew to keep the job moving.
Since the price scales directly with hours worked, the biggest levers on your final bill are how much you own, how many stairs are involved, and whether the truck can park close to your door. Ask each company for their hourly rate by crew size, and confirm whether a truck fee or fuel charge is bundled in or billed separately.
If your inventory includes anything unusually heavy or awkward, like a large appliance or a storage unit's worth of boxes, mention it up front so the crew size quoted actually matches what shows up on moving day, and so the hours estimate doesn't run short.

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 Pierce County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 20% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
