A typical Houston move takes about six total crew-hours. The model you pick changes what those hours cost:
Labor-only with Undergrads
$348
Six crew-hours at $58 per mover-hour, locked before we start. You rent the truck separately ($80–$180, paid directly to U-Haul or Penske).
Typical full-service mover
~$487
The same six crew-hours runs roughly 40% more with a full-service company, before fuel surcharges, stair fees, and materials markups get added at the end.
