Moving Companies in Bristol, FL
Bristol itself is small enough that most moves are handled by regional companies based out of Tallahassee, roughly a 45- to 50-minute drive away, so local pricing here reflects that added distance.
Expect $100 to $140 per hour for a two-mover crew and a truck, or $150 to $200 per hour for a three-mover crew, with most companies enforcing a two- to three-hour minimum regardless of how quickly the job actually goes. Because the crew is driving in from out of town, ask whether their travel fee is a flat rate or billed as part of your hourly time, and clarify precisely when the clock starts and stops, since some companies bill from the moment their truck leaves the depot.
Basic included liability is limited by law to about 60 cents per pound per item, so a 30-pound, $1,000 television only nets around $18 if it's damaged in transit. You can cut your own bill by boxing up everything completely before the crew arrives, since loose items take far longer to load than stacked, taped boxes, and by clearing a wide, direct path from the driveway to your door.
Compare that against the rates from the movers serving this area before you book.

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 Liberty County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 59% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
