Moving Companies in Delray Beach, FL
If you are moving away from Delray Beach, plan around weight and mileage, not an hourly clock. Long-distance moves over 100 miles average $1,710 to $9,690 or more, priced by how much you are shipping and how far it travels. If you just need help loading a truck or a pod yourself, labor-only help runs about $79 per hour per worker, or $315 to $655 for a standard job.
Before signing a long-distance contract, understand what you are covered for: basic released-value coverage is set by law at $0.60 per pound per item, so a 30-pound TV worth $2,000 gets you $18 if it is damaged in transit. Ask about full value protection, or confirm your own homeowner's or renter's policy covers the move instead.
Timing affects the bill too. Peak season runs May through September, and moving on the first or last day of the month pushes rates higher across the board.
For contrast, staying local runs on an hourly crew rate of $163 to $447 per hour, with a one-bedroom move totaling $289 to $607 and a three- to four-bedroom running $1,428 to $2,516.
Before booking anyone for the long haul, confirm they carry a USDOT number and check their complaint record. The listings below are a reasonable place to start comparing.

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 Palm Beach County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 13% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
