Cost of movers in Wyoming: hourly crew rates
Wyoming's cost is a distance and supply story. Wages are modest and housing is mostly detached with driveways, but towns are far apart, carrier networks are thin, and mountain weather widens transit windows outside summer. In Jackson, seasonal-resident demand and limited local crew capacity push prices well above the rest of the state.
A local move is billed by the hour, so the crew rate is the number that decides the bill. These are 2026 Wyoming rates with the truck, fuel, dollies, and pads included:
| Crew size | Rate / hour | Typical for |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers | $118 | Studio – 1BR |
| 3 movers | $177 | 2BR – 3BR |
| 4 movers | $236 | 4BR+ |
Almost every company also bills a 2–4 hour minimum plus travel time, so a very small job rarely lands below the studio row in the next table. The hourly rates guide covers minimums, travel-time billing, and labor-only crews in full.
Wyoming local move cost by home size
| Home size | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | $300 | $375 | $475 |
| 1 Bedroom | $425 | $525 | $650 |
| 2 Bedroom | $825 | $1,025 | $1,225 |
| 3 Bedroom | $1,150 | $1,400 | $1,700 |
| 4 Bedroom | $1,825 | $2,225 | $2,725 |
| 5+ Bedroom | $2,225 | $2,725 | $3,325 |
Rates sit slightly below the national average, but sparse carrier networks and mountain weather widen transit windows outside summer.
How much does it cost to move to Wyoming from out of state?
An interstate move is priced on a different basis than a local one. Instead of crew hours at a local rate, you are paying for the weight of your household moved a given distance, and that per-mile carrier cost is national, not Wyoming-specific. The crew hours are also split between an origin market and a Wyoming destination market, so we do not scale these figures by Wyoming's local cost index, doing so would overstate how much the destination changes the price.
We do not yet publish a dedicated corridor page landing in Wyoming, so here is the general shape by distance for a 3-bedroom household:
| Distance moved | Low | Typical | High |
|---|---|---|---|
| Neighbouring state (~250 mi) | $2,100 | $2,575 | $3,150 |
| Regional (~500 mi) | $2,900 | $3,550 | $4,325 |
| Half the country (~1,000 mi) | $3,900 | $4,750 | $5,800 |
| Long haul (~1,500 mi) | $4,875 | $5,950 | $7,250 |
| Coast to coast (2,500+ mi) | $6,500 | $7,925 | $9,675 |
Smaller households scale down from here: a 1-bedroom runs roughly half a 3-bedroom at the same distance, and a studio about a third. Moving in peak season (May–September) or in the last five days of a month adds 15–24% on top. The long-distance guide has the full matrix by home size and distance.

In Jackson, seasonal-resident demand and limited local crew capacity push prices well above the rest of the state.
Interstate pricing is set by weight and distance, not by Wyoming's local labor market. For a 3-bedroom household, expect about $2,100–$3,150 from a neighbouring state, $3,900–$5,800 from roughly 1,000 miles away, and $6,500–$9,675 coast to coast. Smaller homes cost proportionally less.
A local move within Wyoming runs about $300–$475 for a studio up to $2,225–$3,325 for a large house, at Wyoming crew rates for a roughly 15-mile move. Anything past about 50 miles starts picking up per-mile transport on top of the crew hours.
