South Carolina regulates in-state household goods carriers, so check a company's licensing and complaint history with the state's Office of Regulatory Staff before booking. Standard valuation coverage is minimal, typically $0.60 per pound per item, so ask about full-value protection if you have costly belongings. A binding estimate locks in your total price based on an inventory list, while a non-binding estimate can rise if your shipment weighs more than expected, so always ask which one you're getting.
Before moving day, ask whether any travel or fuel surcharge is flat-rate or hourly, and walk through your home with the crew leader to note existing damage on furniture and walls. Movers generally won't disconnect gas lines, mount TVs, or hook up hardwired appliances, so handle those separately. Scheduling around weekends, the end of the month, or peak summer season typically costs more than a mid-week, mid-month move.

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 Newberry County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 47% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
