Moving to Little Rock
Goods and services here sit below the national mark, and the state figure sits a bit lower still.
Inbound origins. The reviews that name a starting city most often list Stratford, CT; Panama City, FL; Beech Grove, IN. Across 24 priced reviews, the median cost to move into Little Rock is $4,125. Haulest is not a carrier, so use that median as a review benchmark and price your own load before you book.
Price level. BEA price parity for 2024 puts the Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway metro at 89.4, with Arkansas at 86.9, against a US baseline of 100. Goods and services here sit below the national mark, and the state figure sits a bit lower still. A move that stays inside Arkansas follows state rules on the state page; one that crosses the state line is interstate and falls under USDOT and FMCSA.

Moving out of Little Rock
Priced reviews for moves out of Little Rock are too few for a median
Where they go. The destinations named most often in outbound reviews are Alhambra, IL; Muncie, IN; Oklahoma City, OK. Priced reviews for moves out of Little Rock are too few for a median, so there is no reliable cost figure to quote here. If you are weighing a move against staying, run the numbers on move or stay with your own inventory.
When to book. Reviews cluster in Sep, Jan, Mar and thin out in Jun, Feb, Dec. Those months mark when the review was posted, usually a few weeks after the move, so they hint at timing rather than a firm booking rule. Check peak season pressure before you lock a date, and read how to read an estimate so the line items match the job.

What makes a Little Rock move harder
A quote built without that information is a guess wearing a price tag.
Access problems. The access issue these reviews name most is elevators. Say so before the quote: elevator access changes crew size, time on site, and the chance the price still holds once the truck arrives. A quote built without that information is a guess wearing a price tag.
Damage and the rating. 20% of these reviews mention damage, and the mean rating sits at 2.97. Write the condition of furniture and the elevator plan into the estimate before you accept it. The mean in a file of 30 reviews is a signal to read the notes, not a verdict on every truck that rolls through Little Rock.

What a moving crew earns around Little Rock
Half of the hand movers in the Little Rock-North Little Rock-Conway, AR area earn less than $18.00 an hour (US: $19.35); truck drivers, $27.43. An hourly quote for a crew pays two or three of them, plus the truck, fuel, insurance, and the company's margin, so the rate per mover is usually two to three times the wage. A rate near the wage itself means someone is not insured or not paid.
US Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics, May 2025: 53-7062 Laborers and freight, stock, and material movers, hand (5,870 jobs in the area); 53-3032 Heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers. The occupation includes warehouse work, not only moving crews. BLS wage data
