Local Moving with PortFlex
Moving within the same city or across a few zip codes? Whether you’re upgrading, downsizing, or just relocating for a job change, local moves can be quick and hassle-free with PortFlex by your side. As a reliable local moving company, we offer tailored services to fit your unique moving needs.
What Is a Local Move?
A local move typically refers to relocating within the same city or a nearby area, usually within a 50-mile radius. These types of moves are more affordable compared to interstate or long-distance relocations, making them a popular choice for individuals and families.
Residential Moves
At PortFlex, we offer flexible moving options based on the size and needs of your household. You can book our movers on an hourly basis, making it easy to customize your move and stay within your budget. Whether you need a team of 2 movers with a 24 ft truck or a larger crew to handle a bigger home, we’ve got you covered.
Personalized Quotes for Every Move
We understand that every move is different, which is why we offer personalized quotes based on the specifics of your move. For instance, if you don’t have stairs or heavy items, we’ll charge you less, as these moves are easier. We believe in fair pricing, so you won’t pay the same rate as a more challenging move that involves heavy furniture, flights of stairs, or long carries through an apartment complex.
On the other hand, if you have delicate or fragile items that require extra care, our movers will handle them with the utmost attention and caution. For such moves, we may not be able to offer discounted pricing due to the careful handling required, but you can rest assured that your belongings will be treated with expert care.
For a typical 2-bedroom home, 2 movers and a truck are often sufficient. For larger homes, such as 3- or 4-bedroom houses, we recommend a team of 3-4 movers and additional trucks if needed. You can add extra mover for just $40 per hour to ensure your move is completed quickly and efficiently. In some cases, hiring 3 movers can actually save you money, as a larger team can complete the job faster, reducing the overall time and cost.
Long-Distance Moving with PortFlex
Moving across state lines or even across the country requires careful planning, coordination, and the right team to handle the details. At PortFlex, we make long-distance moves simple and stress-free by working around your schedule and budget. Whether you’re moving to a neighboring state or across the country, we provide reliable, personalized moving solutions that take care of all the logistics, so you can focus on what matters most.
What Is a Long-Distance Move?
A long-distance move typically involves relocating beyond a 50-mile radius and often across state lines. This could include moving to a nearby state or making a cross-country move, which may also be referred to as an interstate or state-to-state move. These moves differ from local and intrastate moves due to the distance, the complexity of planning, and the special care required for transportation.
On the other hand, if you have delicate or fragile items that require extra care, our movers will handle them with the utmost attention and caution. For such moves, we may not be able to offer discounted pricing due to the careful handling required, but you can rest assured that your belongings will be treated with expert care.

We believe in transparent pricing, so you’ll receive an accurate estimate upfront—no hidden fees, just straightforward costs.
Cost Considerations for Long-Distance Moves
While moving costs can vary depending on the size of your home and the services required, a typical long-distance move for a 2-3 bedroom home may range from $8,000 to $10,000. For larger homes, with 4-5 bedrooms, you should budget between $10,000 and $17,000. However, each move is unique, and we work with you to find a solution that fits your needs and budget.
