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.

You can verify a company is active through the FMCSA licensing search before booking. Take a look at the movers listed just below this page.

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.

How much truck space do you need?

I’m moving a that’s .

A moving truck filling up as you change the options
1,150
cubic feet — what a local crew loads
8,050 lb what a long-distance carrier quotes on
26 ft rental truck, if you drive it yourself

Industry rules of thumb — about seven pounds per cubic foot, and published rental-truck capacities. Not our carrier records, not a quote. Bring both numbers to the call and what you get back will finally be comparable.
