Ask exactly how travel time is calculated, since Connecticut movers are legally allowed to bill for the drive from their warehouse to your home and back. Old Wethersfield's narrow historic streets can keep a full-size truck from reaching your door, so mention your street width upfront to avoid a same-day shuttle fee. Push for a binding not-to-exceed estimate in writing rather than a verbal quote, since a non-binding one can legally run 10 percent or more over what you were told. Walk through your attic, garage, and closets before the estimate, since adding items on moving day throws off the crew's time estimate. Tipping is customary at $4 to $6 per mover per hour, or 15 to 20 percent of the total split among the crew.
Compare these numbers against the size of your own home and the movers listed just below to get a realistic sense of your budget.

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.
