Georgia rules let movers bill a travel-time charge covering the drive from their warehouse to you and back, so ask how that is calculated before booking. Undisclosed stairs or a long walk from the truck to your door can add a fee once the crew is already there. Standard valuation coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item, so a $1,000 television weighing 30 pounds nets only $18. Scheduling a mid-week, mid-month move outside the May-through-September rush commonly saves 10 to 30 percent, and any quote should come as a binding or not-to-exceed estimate rather than a rough phone guess. Dishonest operators sometimes quote low over the phone, then hold a loaded truck until you agree to pay a much higher final bill, which a written estimate protects you against.

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 Cherokee County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 28% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
