Confirm your movers are registered with community security ahead of time -- if they show up without clearance, security can turn them away and you will still be billed for the waiting time. Check your POA's rules too, since some streets restrict large trucks or moving on certain days.
Because the island sits across water from Savannah proper, some companies add a travel surcharge or count driving time from their mainland warehouse -- ask whether that clock starts when they leave their office or when they reach your door. Low-hanging oak branches and Spanish moss can also block a large truck from a tight driveway, so walk the route beforehand and flag any clearance issues.
Humid summer months can warp boxed wood furniture left in an un-air-conditioned truck or garage, so plan for a same-day unload where possible. The movers below serve the Skidaway and Savannah area.

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 Chatham County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 40% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
