I’m Colton Reyes, owner of North Desert Moving. Gila County sits east of the Verde Valley over rougher mountain ground — Payson, Globe, and Star Valley — a rural county with fewer moving crews willing to make the drive. We’ve been covering it since I started the company in 2016 because a lot of our Verde Valley clients have family ties out that way.
Gila County housing runs rural: pine-country cabins around Payson, older mining-town lots in Globe, and quiet acreage in Star Valley. It’s a different job than a mesa-top Cottonwood subdivision, and my crew plans the driveway and access approach before the truck ever leaves Cottonwood.
Towns We Cover in Gila County
- Payson — pine-country cabins and ranch homes, AZ-260 corridor
- Globe — historic mining-town lots, hillside streets
- Star Valley — quiet acreage neighboring Payson
Flat-Rate Pricing — Gila County
| Crew | Hourly Rate | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| 2 movers + truck | $159/hr | Blankets, dollies, shrink-wrap, floor protection |
| 3 movers + truck | $209/hr | All of the above plus extra hands for a Globe hillside lot |
One-hour minimum. Flat rate locked in writing before we load — the AZ-260 drive out to Payson and Globe is built into the quote, no surprise line item at the truck.
What a Gila County Move Looks Like
Most Gila County jobs we run are full-house residential moves — a Payson cabin family relocating down to the Verde Valley, a Globe household consolidating estate property, or a Star Valley retiree downsizing. We tarp gravel entries and pine-needle-covered walkways the same way we tarp a Cornville dirt driveway back home.
Crossing county lines for the trip itself, we run long-distance service on the AZ-260 corridor, and book full-pack for cabin clean-outs where nobody wants to box up a season’s worth of gear themselves.

Colton’s Old Town Cottonwood crew has already worked the Jerome switchback lots, the mesa stucco-ranch subdivisions, the rural well-and-septic acreage and the Old Town storefront curb parking across Gila County plenty of times.
