For a standard two-person crew and a truck, expect to pay $100 to $150 per hour, while a larger three-person crew runs $150 to $220 per hour. Most companies also add a one-time travel fee to cover the drive to and from your address, plus separate charges for boxes, wrap, and specialty cartons unless those are bundled into a flat quote.
What else to know
Oregon regulates intrastate household moving rates, so confirm any company you're considering is properly licensed before booking, which protects you from scam operators and uninsured damage. Standard coverage included by default is minimal, often around sixty cents per pound per item, so ask about full-value protection if you own anything expensive. Astoria's steep, narrow hills and unpredictable coastal rain can make truck parking and ramp setup difficult, so flag a steep street or tight driveway when booking. Rates and availability also tighten during peak summer months, so book several weeks ahead if you can. Getting an in-person or video walkthrough for your estimate, rather than a rough phone guess, helps avoid surprise fees on 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 Clatsop County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 57% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
