What to check before booking
Timing and access
Rates often jump 20% to 50% around the first and last days of the month and during May through September; midweek and mid-month dates cost less when you have flexibility. Tight apartments, narrow streets, and HOA rules in the area can add long-carry or stair fees if a truck cannot park close or there is no working elevator, so confirm clearance and parking ahead.
Estimates, coverage, and tips
A written binding estimate with a not-to-exceed cap prevents the final bill from rising above the quote, while a non-binding estimate can legally increase. Basic liability is $0.60 per pound per item, so a 30-pound $1,000 TV would be covered for only $18. Ask about full value protection or check your renters or homeowners policy. Common tips are $20–$40 per mover for a half-day and $40–$60 per mover for a full day, though tipping is not always built into the hourly quote.

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 Orange County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 9% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
