The clock usually starts before the crew arrives
Hourly jobs in this part of North Carolina often include the drive from a mover's office to your door, plus the trip back. Some companies call this a double-drive time fee. Get that travel time spelled out before you book.
Long carries and stairs can add fees
If a truck cannot park reasonably close to your Rockingham home, or your place has a long staircase, a steep approach, or tight turns, the crew may add long-carry or stair charges. Ask whether your layout triggers any of those.
Valuation is not the same as full insurance
Basic coverage generally only pays the per-pound amount shown above. For electronics or heirloom furniture, ask about Full Value Protection, or check whether your homeowners or renters policy already covers goods while they are on the truck.
Timing and a simple box can keep you sane
Mid-month dates, Tuesday through Thursday, and fall or winter scheduling often ease the price compared with weekend or month-end moves. Pack medications, key documents, phone chargers, basic tools, a change of clothes, and toilet paper in your own car so those items do not disappear into the truck.

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 Richmond County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 56% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
