Final prices shift with peak summer demand, whether there are stairs or an elevator, how far the truck sits from your door, and heavy items like pianos or safes.
Ask whether your quote is binding or non-binding, and push for an in-home or video walkthrough rather than a quick phone guess. Confirm the mover is registered with the state Department of Transportation and carries valid liability insurance. People often forget to inventory the attic, basement, garage, or patio furniture, which can throw off the estimate, and it's worth clarifying in writing whether taking apart and reassembling furniture is included in the base rate.

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 Southeastern Connecticut Planning rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 38% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
