With a population of about 72,000 and 112 FMCSA-registered household-goods carriers based in and around the city, Dothan has a well-developed moving market for both local and long-distance work.
Local moves inside Dothan are quoted by the hour: expect around $115 per hour for two movers and a truck, $155 for three, and $195 for a four-person crew, usually with a two- or three-hour minimum plus a travel fee. 77 of the local carriers hold interstate authority, and 90 report operating beyond 100 miles, so long-distance capacity is reasonable.
Dothan is relatively spread out (791 people per square mile), so trucks can usually park close to the door and hourly moves tend to run at the lower end of the time ranges below.
