Moving out of state or more than 100 miles switches to weight-and-mileage pricing, running $1,350 to $7,650 or more. Many buildings here require reserving elevator time in advance, and a flat travel fee, often equal to one hour of labor, covers the crew's drive from their depot to your door.
Skip any quote given only over the phone — get a written binding or not-to-exceed estimate so the company cannot legally charge more than the agreed cap. Moving mid-week or mid-month, outside peak summer tourist season, also tends to bring better rates. If you tip, the standard is $4 to $6 per mover per hour, or $20 to $50 per person for the day.
Be honest about your full inventory, including bulky items like patio furniture or large appliances — underestimating what you own can force the crew into extra trips, which stretches the hours and raises the final bill.

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 Horry County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 37% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
