Estill is a small Hampton County town without moving companies based in the city itself, so crews typically drive in from Columbia, the Lowcountry, or the Savannah-Augusta area. That means a travel or dispatch charge is nearly guaranteed - ask upfront whether the hourly clock starts at their shop or at your door, since out-of-town crews often add 1.5 to 2 hours of drive time before work even begins.

Full-service local moves with a two-to-three-person crew and truck typically run $100 to $180 per hour. If you rent your own truck or a container and just need help loading and unloading, labor-only crews cost $50 to $90 per hour for two workers, which can cut the total bill by 40 to 60 percent compared to hiring a full interstate carrier. Long-distance or cross-state moves are priced by weight and mileage instead of by the hour.

Get a binding or not-to-exceed estimate in writing rather than a rough phone quote, and confirm the crew carries liability insurance, since standard coverage pays only 60 cents per pound if something breaks. Rates also swing with timing: the last few days and first few days of a month get booked fast at premium prices, so a move scheduled between the 10th and 20th tends to land a better rate.

Households arriving from another state report $45,030 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in South Carolina report $39,954. 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 Hampton County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 56% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.

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.
