A two-bedroom move in Phoenix: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $44–$55 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $515 – $845.

Hourly rates are scaled to Arizona: hand movers there earn a median $21.29 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $44–$55 per mover per hour.

Before you book Friendly Paws Moving LLC
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC1703322
Friendly Paws Moving LLC can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC1703322. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask about the 1 out-of-service order
1 of Friendly Paws Moving LLC's 3 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (33.3%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Friendly Paws Moving LLC files 3 tractors. If a full rig cannot reach your door, the move needs a shuttle truck, which is a separate line on the bill; ask before the estimate is written.
- 4
Ask whose truck arrives
4 of the 4 power units Friendly Paws Moving LLC files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 4354976, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $515 – $845
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Phoenix at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $11,219 – $14,958. A surveyed, written estimate from Friendly Paws Moving LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
