Ask exactly how a quote breaks down before booking — a flat hourly rate for a full crew and truck reads very differently from labor-only pricing where you've already secured transportation. That distinction alone can shift the total by hundreds of dollars for the same move, so confirm which one a company is quoting before comparing prices between them.

Brandon refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.

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 Minnehaha County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 43% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
