Before booking movers in Jenkintown, check these pricing and access factors that can change the final bill.

  • Hourly crew rates can start at $159/hr. Moves under 50 miles are generally billed by the hour; the clock often runs from arrival through unloading, and some jobs add a travel/fuel surcharge or double-drive time fee, so ask about a flat travel fee.
  • Parking is strict: the limit is two if the property has no off-street parking, or one if it does. You may be responsible for permits or citations if a truck blocks a street or needs a temporary no-parking zone.
  • Older Victorian and row/townhome layouts often add stair or long-carry charges when the door-to-truck walk exceeds 75–100 feet or the stairwell is tight.
  • Basic released-value coverage pays about $0.60 per pound per article. A 30-pound television valued at $1,000 would be covered for only $18, so check full-value protection or your homeowner's insurance.
  • Tipping is not mandatory, but budget about $4 to $6 per mover per hour, or roughly 15%–20% of the total moving bill to split among the crew.

Households arriving from another state report $106,125 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Pennsylvania report $93,272. 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 Montgomery County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 14% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
