Hourly rates vary with crew size and job complexity, so it's worth confirming the exact per-hour rate, the minimum booking time, and whether the estimate already includes drive time before comparing bids. If you're relocating outside the Washington D.C. metro area, pricing switches from an hourly crew rate to one based on total weight and mileage, so ask for a separate long-distance quote rather than assuming the local hourly numbers apply.

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 Montgomery County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 15% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
