Questions worth asking first
Insist on an in-home or video walkthrough rather than a quote given sight unseen, so nothing gets underestimated. Ask directly about long-carry fees if the truck cannot park close to your door, stair charges, and surcharges for heavy items like a piano or safe. Standard liability coverage is thin, generally around sixty cents per pound of damage, so weigh whether fuller protection makes sense for anything valuable. Avoid any company that asks for a large cash deposit before the job even starts, and keep a separate box of essentials, like medication and chargers, with you rather than loading it onto the truck. It also helps to walk the crew through every room, garage included, so the number they quote actually matches what shows up on moving day. See the local options below to compare.

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 Jefferson County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 53% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
