Traffic and building access
Tight complexes along Ashford Dunwoody Road, Oglethorpe Avenue, and the busy Peachtree Road corridor can complicate parking and loading — check with your property manager or HOA ahead of time about dock reservations or elevator access to avoid delays or fines.
Fees to ask about
Most companies charge a separate travel fee, often equal to an hour of labor or a flat $50-$150, to cover the drive from their warehouse to your home and back. Long carries from the door to the truck, multiple flights of stairs, and heavy items like a gun safe or a marble tabletop can all add extra charges. Standard included coverage pays only $0.60 per pound per item — a 40-pound, $2,000 TV would net just $24 if it's dropped — so ask about full value protection for anything valuable.

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 DeKalb 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.
