Timing and Hidden Costs to Plan Around
Ask how travel time is calculated — many companies charge for the drive from their depot to your home and back, sometimes called double drive time. Get a binding or not-to-exceed estimate from an in-home or video walkthrough rather than a phone guess, since a loose quote can double on moving day. Heavy items like pianos, safes, or oversized furniture often carry a $150 to $400-plus surcharge, and homes with stairs or long walks from the truck to the door can add another fee. Basic liability coverage runs only about $0.60 per pound per item, so ask about full value protection for anything valuable. Tipping the crew is customary, typically $4 to $6 per mover per hour or 15 to 20 percent of the total split among the team.

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 Capitol Planning Region rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 20% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
