Fees That Add Up Fast
Orting has semi-rural pockets with long gravel driveways and tight, narrow streets, and if the truck cannot park within about 75 feet of your door, expect a long-carry fee. Booking a move anywhere from June through August, or right at the start or close of a month, usually adds 20 to 30 percent to the bill, so a mid-month weekday booking is the cheaper option. Standard liability coverage is thin, about $0.60 per pound per item, so a broken $1,000 television weighing 30 pounds is only covered for about $18 unless you upgrade. Tipping is customary too, typically $4 to $6 per mover per hour.

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 Pierce County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 20% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
