Before booking, confirm the crew size included in the quote, whether the rate is hourly or flat, and if there's a minimum number of hours charged regardless of job length. Ask whether the price covers travel time to reach your home, and get the estimate in writing rather than relying on a verbal number.
Comparing a few local quotes side by side is the simplest way to see whether a price fits your home size and budget before moving day. Tipping is also customary here, generally around $4 to $5 per mover per hour for a crew that handles your things carefully.

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 Bedford County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 39% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
