Moving Companies in Brunswick, ME
Brunswick movers bill by the hour, with a standard two-person crew running roughly $135 to $190, and larger crews or specialized equipment pushing well past that for bigger jobs. If you've rented your own truck and just need loading help, labor-only rates run around $82 an hour, with typical jobs totaling $330 to $730.
By home size, local moves average $384 to $779 for a studio or one-bedroom, $777 to $1,730 for a two-bedroom, $1,706 to $2,994 for a three- or four-bedroom, and $2,958 to $4,550 for a five-bedroom or larger home.
A few things push costs up. Many companies start the hourly clock when the truck leaves their depot rather than when it reaches your door, so ask exactly when billing begins and ends. Moving between May and September, or right at the start or end of a month, typically costs more due to demand. Standard liability coverage is minimal — often just 60 cents per pound per item — so ask about upgraded valuation coverage for anything valuable.
Brunswick's tight downtown streets near Bowdoin College and some long rural driveways can also mean a long-carry fee if a full-size truck can't park close to your door. A detailed walkthrough estimate avoids that surprise better than a quote given over the phone.

Brunswick refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (1.43 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.49), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $99,053 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Maine report $64,806. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
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 Cumberland County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 28% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
