Many crews start the clock before they even reach your door, charging roughly an hour of travel time from their shop to your home and back, so ask when billing actually begins. Standard liability coverage pays only about 60 cents per pound, meaning a 30-pound, $1,000 television nets just $18 if it's dropped in transit. If you're only renting a truck and need loading muscle, hourly labor-only help starts around $175 for the first hour with a two-person crew. Mention any piano, heavy safe, or awkward stairway before moving day so it doesn't turn into a surprise charge once the crew is already on-site, since specialty items are rarely covered by a standard hourly quote. It's common to tip $4 to $5 for each mover, for every hour worked, or set aside 15 to 20 percent of the total bill for the team to divide up afterward.

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 Jefferson County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 24% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
