What can change your quote
- Summer bookings typically run 10 to 20 percent higher than moving in winter.
- If the truck cannot park close to your door, or your building has stairs and no elevator, expect a long-carry or stair surcharge.
- Ask about a travel fee covering the drive from the company's warehouse to your home and back, and clarify whether furniture disassembly and reassembly are included in the hourly rate or billed separately.
- Basic liability coverage is minimal, often just $0.60 per pound per item, so consider full value protection for anything valuable.

Buford refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country only partly replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $62,724 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Georgia report $63,508. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
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 Gwinnett County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 14% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
