What a move with Pacific Transfer LLC should cost
Not Pacific Transfer LLC's rates: what the published model says a comparable move from Honolulu costs, to judge a written estimate against.
Local moves in Honolulu: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Honolulu: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $44–$55 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $515 – $845.
| Home | Crew | Hours | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $251 – $405 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $339 – $625 |
| 2 bedrooms | 2 | 5–7 | $515 – $845 |
| 3 bedrooms | 3 | 6–9 | $867 – $1,560 |
| 4 bedrooms | 4 | 8–10 | $1,483 – $2,275 |
| 5+ bedrooms | 4 | 10–12 | $1,835 – $2,715 |
Hourly rates are scaled to Hawaii: hand movers there earn a median $21.21 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 Pacific Transfer LLC
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC881506
Pacific Transfer LLC can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC881506. 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 17 out-of-service orders
17 of Pacific Transfer LLC's 78 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (21.8%, 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
Pacific Transfer LLC files 50 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
2 of the 66 power units Pacific Transfer LLC files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 189377, 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 Honolulu at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $26,019 – $34,692. A surveyed, written estimate from Pacific Transfer LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
