What a move with Marks Moving & Storage should cost
Not Marks Moving & Storage's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Magnolia costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Magnolia: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Magnolia: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $36–$45 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $435 – $705.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $219 – $345 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $291 – $525 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $435 – $705 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $723 – $1,290 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,227 – $1,875 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,515 – $2,235 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Arkansas: hand movers there earn a median $17.27 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $36–$45 per mover per hour.

Before you book Marks Moving & Storage
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC1635106
Marks Moving & Storage can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC1635106. 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 for Magnolia references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Marks Moving & Storage's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Magnolia you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Marks Moving & Storage driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $435 – $705
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Magnolia at $435 – $705 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $6,165 – $8,220. A surveyed, written estimate from Marks Moving & Storage far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
