Save Money Moving in Post Falls, ID
A studio or one-bedroom local move typically costs $370 to $520 (around $150 an hour for a two-mover crew). Two bedrooms run $850 to $1,100 ($175 to $200 an hour), and three to four bedrooms run $1,500 to $2,500 or more ($250 to $300-plus an hour). Some companies also add a separate flat truck fee of $150 to $250 on top of the hourly rate, so ask before booking.
How to Cut the Bill
- Most crews have a 2- to 4-hour minimum — if your job is smaller, bundle in an extra task like clearing a garage or storage unit so you get full value from the time you're paying for.
- Confirm exactly when hourly billing starts; many companies charge 30 to 60 minutes of travel time to and from their base.
- Booking outside the May-through-September peak season, or on a Tuesday or Wednesday, often means lower rates and better availability.
- Decluttering heavy items like pianos or safes beforehand avoids extra labor fees.
Basic coverage pays only about $0.60 per pound per item — a 20-pound, $1,000 television would net just $12 if damaged. Standard tipping runs $20 to $40 per mover for a half-day job.

Post Falls refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $90,891 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Idaho report $58,366. 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 Kootenai County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 38% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
