How much does it cost to move to Kentucky?

While calculating the moving cost to Kentucky, we need to consider multiple factors which include your current location, the destination in Kentucky you are moving to, the volume of household belongings you move, the season you move, and the type of moving service.

Also, you need to know that Kentucky is 40,407 square miles in area, and moving to every part of Kentucky would cost you differently. You may be moving to Kentucky from a neighboring state (Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, or Virginia) or a faraway state (Maine, Idaho, or Washington) and the cost would be different based on from where you are moving in.

Here’s an approximate moving cost from different states to Kentucky

From State Studio/1 bedroom 2-3 bedroom 4+ bedroom
Illinois $680-$1,140 $1,20-$1,860 $1,860-$2,720
Maine $1,150-$1,740 $1,730-$2,520 $2,420-$3,440
Alabama $900-$1,420 $1,460-$2,170 $2,130-$3,060
Texas $1,120-$1,710 $1,700-$2,490 $2,400-$3,400

While you prepare a moving cost estimate to Kentucky, consider the following factors:

  • Size of the move:

    The volume of household belongings you take along with while moving the home is a big factor in determining the moving cost. The heavier the moving stuff is, the costlier the moving quote will be.

  • Distance between your origin and destination:

    While you move, the distance between your current location and destination in Kentucky is a major factor in determining the moving cost.

  • Packing services:

    While a moving company in Kentucky packs your belongings, it will add up the cost of packing materials to the total moving cost.

  • Moving add-ons:

    Every moving service taken additionally has a price. This can be disassembling and reassembling furniture, moving specialty items, or moving supplies provided by movers such as a stretch wrap, felt pads, and mattress bags. And a mover will add this to the final moving cost.

  • Storage:

    When you are moving to a smaller house in Kentucky, you may need a storage unit that a moving company would offer but for an additional cost that would be added to the total moving cost.

  • Moving date:

    People prefer moving in summer as it is sunny and days are longer. And this makes summer an expensive moving season. Instead, movers in Kentucky will offer attractive deals and discounts in winter, the off-season for the moving industry. You should consider moving in winter to cut down the cost.

  • Insurance:

    An additional insurance against the household items that are moved is a safe decision but it would add up to the total moving cost.

In Kentucky, a move within the state or within a 100-mile radius is called a local move and the costs are calculated differently, on an hourly basis. A mover in Kentucky would charge you based on the number of laborers work plus the hours taken to accomplish the task.

In Kentucky, you would require spending between $50 and $75 per mover per hour to move an average one-bedroom home. To move the home locally, you require a minimum of 2 laborers and 2 hours in addition to the 1 hour drive time and this would require you to pay for at least 3 hours for 2 movers. As a result, a local mover here may bill you something between $250 and $300 unless your move needs more hours or more people.

To get a clearer picture of moving cost within Kentucky, consider the following:

No. of bedrooms No. of movers and hours Approximate cost
1 bedroom 2 movers and 3 hours $250-$500
2 bedroom 3 movers and 5 hours $300-$750
3 bedroom 4 movers and 7 hours $500-$1200
4 bedroom 5 movers and 9 hours $1,200-$4,000
Always remember that these are just approximate costs and the real costs may vary based on different factors.

While moving interstate or cross-country from Kentucky, you can hire either a full-service moving company or a partial moving service company but to move within the state, you’ve got multiple options.

To move within Kentucky, there is no need for any professional assistance, but you can move your own, provided the household belongings are limited. This will save you hundreds of dollars.

Different ways to move somewhere inside Kentucky

  • Hire a full-service or partial moving service company

    While moving inside Kentucky, a full-service moving company or partial moving service company is a safe bet as your relocation gets a professional touch. A full-service moving company in Kentucky will help you in every task associated with moving, including packing, loading, and unloading, a partial moving service can only help you load and unload the truck.

    When you feel the full-service moving company is costlier to your budget, rent a partial moving service company that can help you only to load and unload the truck.

  • Hire a truck and load it with your stuff

    Take a truck on rental and fill your household stuff into it to drive to the new home within 100 miles away. This option is extremely cheaper and you can plan the moving process as you wish. The only expense you need to bear is the truck rental, which may be somewhere around $30 to $47 per day plus the fuel cost.

  • Hire a portable container

    When you don’t feel like driving a truck to the new home, hire a portable moving container. You can fill it in at your convenience and it will be delivered to your new home in a few days. A portable container within 50 miles may cost you around $400 to $500.

  • Rent a tow behind cargo or utility trailer

    You can even move the home in a utility trailer. Fill your limited volume of household belongings into it and tow it behind your vehicle to drive to the new home. This is extremely cheap when you compare it with other moving options.

  • Move the stuff in your car

    Another cheapest way to relocate the home is to squeeze all your belongings into the car and drive to the new home. If you feel the stuff will not completely fit into the car, ask a friend to carry the rest of the items in his car.

While moving within Kentucky, you’ve got multiple options. However, moving from or to another state is a little complicated. And, your moving options are greatly based on how far you’re moving and how much stuff you have.

DIY is possible to move within the state but to move long-distance, is not a recommended mode of transit as the rental trucks cost a lot more when driving them through different states. Also, consider the gas price along with the drive time and all the hassles that come up while driving long distances.

Driving a truck to the next state may work for you but to drive thousands of miles is not a good option.

This leaves you the following two options:

Full Service Moving:

A full-service moving company in Kentucky will pack your household belongings, load the truck, and unload it at the new home. Though it is costlier to hire a full-service mover, it is worthy for long-distance moving.

Partial Moving Services:

When a full-service moving budget is too fat for your pocket, consider a company offering partial moving services. It will help to load and unload the household belongings into the truck that you can drive to the new home. When required, it will also provide packing services for an additional cost.

Similarly, you may also look into the moving container options.

When you hire a moving company in Kentucky, you need to ensure that it is a reliable one as your home may have expensive items that you don’t want to fall into wrong hands. Confirm that the mover has not changed names in the past and has a decent track record. Also, the mover needs to be licensed and registered as only licensed movers can transit your household belongings interstate.

We also advise you to verify the moving company’s profile on the Better Business Bureau (BBB), whether it is accredited by the BBB.

However, while hiring a moving company in Kentucky through MoverJunction, you can feel safe as our network only has genuine and licensed movers.

And in case you’re hiring a mover in Kentucky outside us, you need to confirm:

  • The original name, address, and phone number
  • Company web address and email address
  • Point of contact information
  • License and registration details
  • BBB-license details

Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)

Hire a professional moving company in Kentucky to pack your belongings. Its professional team will come on the moving day with high-quality packing materials and cartons and ensure that all china, glassware, and crystal items are wrapped individually before packing, all rugs and carpets are rolled and wrapped, all large or valuable furniture pieces and appliances are padded for transport and that other such measures are taken on your behalf.

Yes and no. This is based on the moving quote you have agreed to. While most moving companies would pack your belongings if you wish, you would require paying extra for the services.

No, you should not make any payment until the household items reach your home. A legitimate mover in Kentucky will never demand advance payment as it is confident about its quality of service. And whenever a mover demands cash payment in advance, drop the plan there itself as it can be a moving scam.

When you approach a moving company in Kentucky, you need to consider:

  • Reputation
  • Insurance
  • The company’s policy
  • Experience
  • Cost of service
  • Cancellation policy
  • Referrals

The federal law does not permit the moving of combustible or flammable materials. Hence, a mover in Kentucky would not transport combustible materials including but not limited to, cleaning solvents, corrosives, fireworks or flares, gasoline, kerosene, motor fuel, lamp oil, oil-based paints, thinners, and varnishes, lighter fluid, fire extinguishers, nail polish remover, bleach, sterno, aerosol cans, propane containers and cylinders, matches, and old batteries.

Apart from that, every moving company will have a policy related to the items that are moved. You can check with the company during the initial discussion.
