Moving to Anniston: What It Costs
Anniston sits in Calhoun County, with most local and regional moving crews serving the surrounding area rather than being based downtown, so travel time from a nearby city can factor into your quote.
For moves under 50 miles, typical local jobs run anywhere from $350 up to $1,100, with the exact figure driven mostly by how big your home is. An average full-service local move lands between $791 and $2,031 once everything is added up. Hourly labor for a full crew runs about $120 to $128 an hour, while smaller labor-only jobs, just loading or unloading a truck you rented yourself, tend to run $90 to $125 an hour instead. Moving out of state is priced on a completely different basis, generally $2,500 to $8,500 or more, driven by the total weight of your belongings and the distance to your new address.
Getting an accurate room count ready before you call for quotes helps keep any of these figures realistic once a crew actually shows up. The listings below cover movers who work in and around Anniston.

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 Calhoun County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 40% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
