Heavy item surcharges, long carry fees, and stair fees can add to the final bill. Request a binding or binding not-to-exceed written estimate; a non-binding estimate may legally rise on moving day if the job runs long.
If a condo, townhouse, or managed apartment is involved, management will usually ask the mover for a certificate of insurance before the truck can enter. Confirm that ahead of moving day.
Tips are not mandatory but customary: about $20 to $40 per mover for a half-day, or $50 to $100+ per mover for a full-day move.
Keep a change of clothes, toiletries, chargers, medications, basic tools, and important documents in your own car rather than deep in the truck.

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 Suffolk County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 13% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
