Moving Companies in Troy, AL
Troy is a college town, so pricing and truck availability here swing with the academic calendar as much as with home size.
Typical Costs
- Full-service local crews charge somewhere between $95 and $145 hourly for the standard two-mover team.
- Labor-only help, if you've rented your own truck, averages about $89 per hour, with total jobs between $350 and $750.
- By home size, expect roughly $560 to $1,100 for a studio or one-bedroom, $1,070 to $1,950 for two to three bedrooms, and $2,150 to $3,350 or more for four to five bedrooms.
Plan Around the Calendar
Rates spike and crews book solid during move-in, move-out, and graduation weekends at the university, so avoid those dates if you can. Ask whether the hourly clock starts when the crew leaves their shop or arrives at your door, since many companies bill a travel fee either way. Certain items — propane, aerosol cans, nail polish remover, cleaning liquids — can't legally ride along, so plan to move those yourself. Photographing furniture and electronics before the crew starts gives you a clean baseline if anything gets damaged in transit.

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 Pike County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 57% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
