What does a moving company cost in Minneapolis?
Local movers charge $120–200 an hour for a two-person crew and truck, which puts a typical two-bedroom move at $700–1,500. A three or four-bedroom house runs $1,500–4,000. Interstate moves are priced by weight and distance instead, usually $2,500–7,000. Packing, specialty items and long carries are billed on top, so the estimate type matters as much as the rate. In Minneapolis, prices are in line with the national average.
Things to know in Minneapolis
Deep winters shape the Minneapolis market: ice dams, frozen pipes and furnace failures drive emergency calls, while exterior work compresses into a short summer season with longer lead times.
Checklist before hiring a moving company
- Look up the USDOT number for interstate moves
- Ask for proof of liability and cargo insurance
- Get a written estimate — ideally binding or not-to-exceed
- Understand the valuation coverage: released value is only 60 cents per pound
- Flag heavy items (piano, safe, gun safe, appliances) in advance
- Confirm whether packing materials are included or billed separately

Other services in Minneapolis
Electrician in Minneapolis
Finding an available electrician with the right skills is rarely quick. Good contractors are often booked weeks out, and when a breaker keeps tripping or your EV charger quits, you don't have time to call around and wait for a cancellation.
Plumber in Minneapolis
When water is dripping under the sink or a drain backs up, you don't want to spend days searching for a company. And before a bathroom remodel, you really don't want someone who cuts corners — that rarely shows immediately, but it has a habit of resurfacing as an insurance dispute or a leak a few years later.
Cleaning company in Minneapolis
A good cleaning company makes a home feel like it takes care of itself. A bad one usually only becomes obvious when something is missing from a drawer or there's a scratch on the floor that wasn't there before. The difference rarely shows up in the price — it's in the routines behind it.
Carpenter in Minneapolis
Finding the right carpenter is rarely as simple as it sounds. The trade runs from heavy outdoor framing to millimeter-level finish work, and most companies specialize in one direction. Hire the wrong kind for the job and it shows fast — either in how it looks or in how long it lasts.
