I've used moving companies on two occasions, and will always use them whenever I move now! saves so much time and energy.

But it really comes down to how much you have to move, when I finished up being a student and was renting a room in a house with nothing but a bed/dresser/desk and a bunch of boxes, I was able to get all that moved into an apartment for around $200-250

But just recently, moved out of an apartment, into a house. 1 bedroom, now with a lot more bigger items collected over the years, things like couches, TV stands, book shelves, coffee/kitchen tables, a lot more boxes. That move cost around $600-700.

Best thing you can do to make it cheaper, is make sure everything is packed and put in an easy spot for the movers to access when they get there. It'll save them tons of time of loading up the truck, which saves you on billed time.
