Moving Companies in Grafton, WV
Grafton doesn't have a large moving-company presence within city limits, so most crews serving Taylor County travel in from Fairmont, Morgantown, or Clarksburg.
| Move size | Typical total cost |
|---|---|
| Studio to 2-bedroom | $720 – $1,800 |
| 3+ bedroom home | $2,000 – $4,600+ |
| DIY truck rental (local) | $59 – $139 |
Hourly labor runs roughly $100 to $300 depending on crew size, with a statewide average near $133 per hour for a two- to three-mover crew. Where you land in each range above depends mostly on how much you own and how many hours loading and unloading take, so an accurate room-by-room walkthrough before you book helps avoid a surprise final bill.
Whether your move stays local or crosses state lines also changes how it's priced — local jobs are billed by the hour, while a longer relocation is typically quoted by weight and mileage instead. If your budget is tight, renting a truck yourself and hiring hourly labor just to load and unload can bring the total down, though it means more of the physical work falls on you. Comparing at least a couple of written estimates before you decide is the simplest way to avoid overpaying for the same job.

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 Taylor County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 32% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
