Moving Companies in Waverly, MI
Waverly sits just outside Lansing, and local movers there price by the hour, scaling with the size of your crew and how long the job takes.
The Michigan average lands around $139 per hour for a two-person crew and a truck, with typical rates falling somewhere between $100 and $180 total per hour. A studio or one-bedroom apartment usually runs $300 to $600 and takes about two to four hours on site. A two- to three-bedroom home runs $600 to $1,200 or more over four to seven hours, and a larger four-plus bedroom home can reach $1,500 to $3,000 or beyond for a full day of work.
Two things push a quote above the base hourly number: a travel or fuel charge covering the drive from the company's depot to your home and back, and any stairs or long carries between your door and the parked truck, both of which add billable labor time. Ask how each one is calculated before you book, since a flat trip charge and an hourly travel fee can add up very differently depending on how far out the crew is coming from.

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 Eaton County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 26% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
