- Miles driven
- 50,000 miles reported for 2025, about 8,333 per truck.

What a move with Household Goods Moving should cost

Local moves in Germantown: billed by the hour
A two-bedroom move in Germantown: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $41–$52 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $485 – $803.

| Studio | 2 | 2–3 | $239 – $387 |
| 1 bedroom | 2 | 3–5 | $321 – $595 |

Hourly rates are scaled to Maryland: hand movers there earn a median $20.00 an hour against $19.35 nationally (BLS, May 2025), so the model's national $40–$50 band becomes $41–$52 per mover per hour.

Before you book Household Goods Moving
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC1538822
Household Goods Moving can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC1538822. 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 Household Goods Moving's 5 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (20.0%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Household Goods Moving 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 $485 – $803
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Germantown at $485 – $803 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $1,080 – $1,440. A surveyed, written estimate from Household Goods Moving far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
