Moving Companies in Kingston, NH
Kingston’s rural roads, gravel driveways, and low-hanging branches show up on the bill more than in most towns — if a full-size moving truck can’t get down your driveway or street, some companies charge a shuttle fee to transfer items to a smaller vehicle first.
What it costs
A 2-person crew and truck runs $120 to $180 an hour; a 3-person crew runs $160 to $240. A typical local move totals $780 to $2,500 or more depending on home size. The hourly clock usually starts when the crew leaves their warehouse, not when they reach your door, so a company based farther away costs more in travel time.
Basic coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item — a 30-pound, $1,000 television is worth just $18 if it’s damaged — so ask about better protection for anything valuable. Cash tips of $20 to $40 per mover are standard, paid at the end of the job. Mention your driveway, low branches, and road access when you get your quote, not after the truck shows up, then check the movers listed below.

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 Rockingham County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 22% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
