A few things worth confirming before booking. Ask how travel time is calculated — most companies bill for the truck's trip from their depot to your home and back. Basic liability coverage is thin: about $0.60 per pound per item, so a 50-pound, $1,000 TV that breaks only nets $30 back. Urbana's townhome communities and narrow streets sometimes mean a large truck can't get close, which can trigger a shuttle fee — worth checking with your HOA in advance. Tipping isn't required but is customary, typically $20 to $50 per mover for a standard day. And a binding or not-to-exceed estimate protects your budget better than a non-binding one, which can legally rise by 10% or more.

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 Frederick County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 31% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
