1,203 FMCSA-registered movers serving Alexandria, VA — local hourly rates, long-distance cost tables, a calculator and the routes people take out of the city.
Alexandria, Virginia is home to about 160,662 people across 14.9 square miles, and its moving market is served by 1,203 household-goods carriers registered with the FMCSA within roughly 45 miles of downtown.
Local moves inside Alexandria are quoted by the hour: expect around $135 per hour for two movers and a truck, $180 for three, and $230 for a four-person crew, usually with a two- or three-hour minimum plus a travel fee. 740 of the local carriers hold interstate authority, and 696 report operating beyond 100 miles, so long-distance capacity is plentiful.
Alexandria is a dense city (10,702 people per square mile), which shapes how moves work: parking permits, elevator reservations, narrow streets and walk-ups add time, and many companies quote a shuttle or long-carry fee when a truck cannot park at the door.
Ranges cover a full-service crew (loading, transport, unloading). Packing, storage, stairs and specialty items are extra; the calculator below adds them.
