On top of the base rate, these are the charges and conditions that most often change a Cupertino bill:
| Item | What to know |
|---|---|
| Double drive time | State rules let movers bill twice the drive time between their warehouse and your homes |
| Peak timing | End of month, summer and weekends carry higher rates; mid-week, mid-month bookings cost less |
| Parking and access | Tight apartment lots and HOA rules are common; a truck blocking a lane or hydrant risks fines |
| Estimate type | Verbal quotes are unenforceable; get a written binding or not-to-exceed cap |
| Basic liability | Only $0.60 per pound per item is included; upgrade coverage for valuable pieces |

Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $132,338 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in California report $152,964. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
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 Santa Clara County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 11% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
