Moving Costs in Jonesborough, TN

In the East Tennessee/Tri-Cities area, a standard two- to three-person crew plus truck runs about $120 to $200 or more per hour total, or roughly $90 to $150-plus per hour per mover. A studio or one-bedroom move typically totals $300 to $600.

A two- to three-bedroom home generally runs $700 to $1,600, depending on volume and stairs, while a larger four-plus-bedroom home can reach $1,500 to $3,500 or more. Specialty items like a piano or large safe often carry their own flat surcharge, typically $150 to $400, on top of the hourly rate.

Basic liability coverage included by movers is thin — often just $0.60 per pound per item, so a 20-pound television worth $1,000 would only be covered for about $12 if it breaks. Jonesborough's historic streets and tight driveways can also mean a smaller shuttle truck is needed, so mention any narrow access points when you book.

Tipping is customary too: figure on $20 to $40 per mover for a half-day move, or $50 to $80 per mover for a longer, full-day job.

I've used this moving company twice now, and both experiences have been outstanding! They were easy to work with, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and went above and beyond to make both moves as smooth and stress-free as possible.

Hendrik’s Movers were fantastic. They showed up on time (actually a bit early). They were efficient and careful. We had a great experience and would highly recommend them.

Outstanding job, Hendrik’s Moving to the rescue again! I couldn’t ask for a more professional and efficient crew.

Hendrik's Moving was amazing! Cory and Cora helped make our move SO smooth and I can't say enough about them and their staff. We had a two-day move that happened in the middle of winter and snow. They communicated so well with us from start to finish and are stellar at what they do. They helped orga...

Had a great experience with this moving company. I had some furniture I was not able to move myself to my new home. The movers sent were friendly and professional. Everything was handled with care and nothing was damaged in the process. Cost was very reasonable. Would highly recommend.

Just used Hendrik's for my move. They did a really good job. Came out quickly in person for a walk thru quote. The quote I was given up front was accurate. They were very careful and did more packing and protecting of my items than I even expected. They were on time and just overall good people to w...

Great experience with Hendriks Moving. Swapped room furniture from upstairs to downstairs. Cory and Austin were right on time. The move was professional, careful and clean. Highly recommend their services for a pain free move big or small.

This was a very smooth process. The intake forms can be a little lengthy, but the time investment was worth it. The service is a great value for the cost and I've never had a better move. For the last 20 years, I've moved at least 10 times and this was by far the best experience.

I desperately needed a mover within the space of a couple of days. Hendrik’s to the rescue! They were able to work me into their busy schedule and gave me a fair estimate in advance. They arrived exactly on time and were able to complete the job on a timely basis. They were courteous, knowledgeable,...

I fell in love with a piano from Facebook Marketplace and knew it would be the perfect addition to our home. I asked around, but no one had any experience with specialized movers. So, I was left to do my own research through Google with no word-of-mouth recommendations. I came across several picture...

I cannot recommend Hendrik's Moving enough!! They moved a tractor trailer for me and my husband and my daughter and her husband when we moved from Alaska. They were kind, professional, and trustworthy. Not one thing was broken as they handled our personal belongings with care.

I've hired them twice and will do so again in the future. Courteous. Hard working. Respectful. Careful. Skilled. I'd give them 6 stars if I could! Tr...

Households arriving from another state report $77,240 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Tennessee report $51,314. 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 Washington County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 46% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

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.
