| Studio / 1 bedroom | $400 – $900 |
| 2–3 bedroom / townhouse | $950 – $2,200 |
| 4+ bedroom | $2,200 – $4,000+ |
Those totals assume a standard crew of two to three movers billed at $150 to $220 per hour. Heavy or bulky items like pianos and safes commonly add $100 to $300 or more on top.

Many movers also bill for travel time to and from their base, and long carries or extra flights of stairs without an elevator can add to the total. Rainy-season weather is common here too, so ask whether wet-weather wrapping for floors and mattresses is included or billed separately.

White Center refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country replaces them almost one for one.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $111,064 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Washington report $81,703. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
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.
