Bennington has few large moving companies based directly in town, so most residents book regional crews that travel in from elsewhere in Vermont.

Local moves are billed by the hour rather than a flat rate. Crews typically run around $200 per hour for a truck and a crew of two to three movers, and most companies set a minimum charge of two to four hours, so even a small job costs more than the per-hour rate alone suggests.

Total cost for a full local move generally lands between $900 and $6,800, depending on how much you're moving and how many hours the crew needs.

Timing affects price too. Moving between May and September, or right at the start or end of a month, usually adds a premium of 20% to 30% on top of standard rates. Booking outside that window, or mid-month, is the easiest way to avoid the surcharge.

Ask any crew whether their quote already includes travel time from their base to your home, since that detail can change the real hourly cost you end up paying.

Households arriving from another state report $91,203 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Vermont report $70,581. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.

How this works: IRS SOI County-to-County Migration Data, 2022-2023. The IRS compares the address on consecutive tax returns, so every move here is a real filed household. The catch: it publishes annually with about a two-year lag, counts Bennington County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 71% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
