What to check before booking
- For moves staying strictly within North Carolina, verify that the company holds a valid certificate with the North Carolina Utilities Commission rather than just a federal USDOT number.
- Ask for a written, binding or binding-not-to-exceed estimate instead of a vague phone estimate so the company cannot drastically increase the bill once your belongings are loaded onto their truck.
- Confirm access fees beforehand: long hallways, stairs without an elevator, steep driveways, or a moving truck that cannot park close to your door can trigger extra “long carry” or “stair” fees.
- Move hazardous materials, propane tanks, household chemicals, open food items, family heirlooms, legal documents, and jewelry in your personal car; local moving companies legally or insurance-wise cannot transport these items.
- Peak timing costs: rates rise during the final week of the month, weekends, and peak summer months from May through September. Book a mid-week, mid-month move if your schedule is flexible.

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 Alamance County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 35% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
