This page lists the moving companies operating in Rochester, MN, together with typical local and long-distance prices, delivery times and the routes people most often search when leaving the city.
Local moves inside Rochester are quoted by the hour: expect around $135 per hour for two movers and a truck, $180 for three, and $225 for a four-person crew, usually with a two- or three-hour minimum plus a travel fee. 72 of the local carriers hold interstate authority, and 80 report operating beyond 100 miles, so long-distance capacity is reasonable.
Rochester is relatively spread out (2,187 people per square mile), so trucks can usually park close to the door and hourly moves tend to run at the lower end of the time ranges below.
