What a move costs in Rhode Island
Before you call any of them, know the number. Local moves bill by the hour; leaving the state is priced on weight and distance. From our published model.
| Home size | Local (hourly) | 1,000 miles |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | $235 – $375 | $3,375 – $4,500 |
| 2 bedrooms | $475 – $775 | $4,500 – $6,000 |

| 5+ bedrooms | $1,675 – $2,475 | $6,750 – $9,000 |
How this list was built, and what it is not
Every carrier that moves household goods must register with the FMCSA. We pulled the register for Rhode Island, kept carriers with active status that declare household goods cargo and whose name identifies them as movers, and ordered them by registered fleet. That is the whole method. Nobody pays to be here and we re-rank nothing.
It is not a quality ranking and not an endorsement. Fleet size is self-reported, some genuine movers trade under names our filter misses, and a registration says nothing about how a crew treats your furniture. Use the USDOT number to read the record, get a written estimate after a survey, and refuse a large deposit.
Before you call a Rhode Island mover

Movers in Rhode Island — questions
How many licensed moving companies are there in Rhode Island?
34 carriers based in Rhode Island are active on the FMCSA register with household goods declared and a name that identifies them as movers (pulled 2026-09-23). 20 of the 34 listed here hold interstate authority; the rest work within Rhode Island only.
Who is the largest mover in Rhode Island?
By registered fleet, Sterling Moving & Storage Inc in Cranston with 11 power units and 12 drivers, on the register since 1996. Fleet size is self-reported on the carrier's MCS-150 filing and says nothing about service quality.
How much do movers cost in Rhode Island?
A local move in Rhode Island is billed by the hour: roughly $40 to $50 per mover per hour plus about $75 travel, which puts a studio at $235 – $375 and a three-bedroom home at $795 – $1,425. Leaving the state, movers price on weight and distance — a three-bedroom home over 1,000 miles is about $5,175 – $6,900. The calculator prices your exact route.
Does a mover need an MC number for a move inside Rhode Island?
Not federally. A move that stays inside Rhode Island is regulated by the state, and the carrier needs a USDOT number plus whatever Rhode Island itself requires. The moment the move crosses a state line, active interstate authority (an MC number) is mandatory. Check both on the FMCSA register before signing.
Is this list a recommendation?
No. It is the federal register filtered to movers and ordered by fleet size. Nobody pays to appear and we re-rank nothing. Use the USDOT number to read each carrier's safety and complaint record, then run the six checks on our moving companies page.
