What to ask before booking
Get a binding estimate rather than a phone quote so the price can't legally increase later, and ask directly whether the number includes travel time, tolls, and fuel, since New Jersey's tunnel and bridge crossings add up. If your building has stairs or a slow elevator, confirm whether that's already factored into the quote or billed separately.

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 Hudson County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 10% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
