Take a look at the movers serving Williston below before you lock in a quote -- rates here vary a lot depending on how much help you actually need.

Labor-only crews (you rent the truck, they load and unload) run $80 to $100 per hour for two people, with a typical smaller job landing between $330 and $730 total. A full local move -- truck, driver and crew included -- usually costs $350 to $1,100 or more, depending on how much you are moving and how many movers it takes.

Going farther afield changes the math. Regional and in-state moves out of Williston typically start around $900 and can run past $2,500, while a full interstate relocation is more often $2,500 to $8,500 or higher. Statewide, North Dakota movers also price by home size: a studio apartment averages around $411, climbing to roughly $3,314 for a five-bedroom-plus household.

Full-service crews -- truck, driver, and all the lifting included -- cost more than labor-only help, but save you the physical work and the hassle of renting a truck yourself. Which option makes sense mostly comes down to budget and how much of the job you are willing to do on your own.

Ask any crew upfront whether their quote is hourly or a flat rate, since that single detail explains most of the spread above.

Households arriving from another state report $59,170 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in North Dakota report $66,706. 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 Williams County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 80% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

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.
