Movers in Rigby, ID

Helping Rigby Homes and Businesses Since 2009

At Manly Moving, we have been helping Rigby residents and business owners move with confidence since 2009. We have built our reputation one careful move at a time, handling everything from standard household relocations to specialty items like pianos, hot tubs, gun safes, and pool tables.

Locally rooted and professionally run, we plan each move around your home, your schedule, and the items you are bringing, so your move goes the way you planned it.

Moving In and Around the Jefferson County Seat

Rigby is the county seat of Jefferson County and sits on US-20 between Idaho Falls and Rexburg. Many Rigby residents commute to jobs in Idaho Falls or Rexburg, and the city has grown from about 3,900 people in 2010 to more than 5,000 in 2020. Rigby is also known as the Birthplace of Television, home of the Farnsworth TV and Pioneer Museum.

We move households within Rigby and between Rigby and neighboring Jefferson County towns like Ririe, Menan, Lewisville, and Roberts, as well as up and down the US-20 corridor. With offices in Idaho Falls to the south and Sugar City to the north, our crews are close to Rigby on both sides.

Rural Properties, Farms, and Heavy Items Around Rigby

We are experienced with rural moves throughout Jefferson County, including properties along Menan Lorenzo Highway, outside Ririe, and in the farming communities surrounding Rigby. We know how to work with long driveways, outbuildings, and the heavy specialty items common on Idaho properties.

Gun safes, hot tubs, pool tables, and pianos all require specialized equipment and experience, and our team is trained and equipped to move them safely, whether you are staying local or heading out of Jefferson County. Let us know about these items when you request your quote so we bring the right gear on moving day.

When to Schedule Your Rigby Move

Spring and early fall tend to be the most popular and most comfortable times to move in Rigby. Idaho winters can bring snow and icy roads that make moving harder, and summer harvest season can mean heavier traffic on rural routes. If you have flexibility, late April through June or September through October are good windows.

We recommend booking at least 2 to 3 weeks ahead for local Jefferson County moves and 4 to 6 weeks ahead for long-distance relocations. Summer months and the beginning and end of each month fill up fastest, but we do our best to fit in last-minute moves when our schedule allows.

What Affects the Cost of Your Rigby Move

Local moves in Rigby are billed by the hour, so the size of your home and how much you are bringing make up most of the cost. Farm properties with shops, barns, or outbuildings take longer than a house in town, and gravel lanes or soft ground can mean a longer carry from the truck. Long distance moves are priced by weight or cubic feet and usually reach I-15 at Idaho Falls, about 15 miles south on US-20. From there, I-15 runs south toward Pocatello and Salt Lake City or north toward Montana, so your destination sets much of that price. Inside the house, basement stairs, beds and tables that need to come apart, and chest freezers or washers that must be emptied first all add time. Packing, storage between homes, and heavy items like gun safes, pianos, and hot tubs all add to the job. Before you request a quote, list your rooms, both addresses, and anything that weighs more than a few hundred pounds.

Moving Between Rigby, Idaho Falls and Rexburg

Rigby sits roughly 15 miles from both Idaho Falls and Rexburg, so a move to either city is a short highway run, and most of the time on your bill goes to loading and unloading rather than driving. Moves into Rexburg often end at an apartment or rental near BYU-Idaho, where move-in windows and parking can be tight around semester changes, so share your check-in time with us. Moves into Idaho Falls range from older homes near downtown to newer subdivisions with HOA rules on truck parking. Many families move in stages, with part of the household going to storage while a new house is finished, and we can plan the storage stop into the same moving day when the timing works. With so many Rigby residents commuting on US-20, mornings run heavier toward Idaho Falls and evenings heavier coming back, so a midday start can keep a short move on schedule. If items are coming from more than one address, list every pickup when you book.
