Moving Companies in Milwaukie, OR
Local rates in the Milwaukie and Portland metro area scale with home size and crew hours, while moves out of state run on weight and distance instead. A standard 2-to-3 bedroom local job averages around $1,400 and usually takes 3 to 6 hours of crew time, with the studio and one-bedroom range depending on how much you own and whether stairs slow the crew down.

| Studio / 1-bedroom | $560-$900 |
| 2 to 3-bedroom | $900-$1,800 |
| 4+ bedroom | $2,500-$3,500+ |

|---|---|
| Local move | $1,400 |
| Long-distance, about 1,000 miles | $5,450 |
| Crew hourly rate | $150-$185 |
Local moves are billed for the hours the crew actually works, which is why a small stairs-heavy apartment can cost more than a ground-floor unit twice its size. Weigh these numbers against the local providers listed below before booking a crew.

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 Clackamas County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 18% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
