Upper Peninsula specifics
Winters here are serious, and a move between November and April means ice and snow on walkways can slow the crew down or add cost if paths aren't cleared. Because Iron Mountain sits somewhat isolated in the U.P., a company dispatching from Green Bay or Marquette may add a travel surcharge just to reach your door, so ask whether the crew is based locally before booking. Mention any gun safe, piano, or hot tub ahead of time, since these need extra equipment and can trigger fees if they're a surprise on moving day.
Protecting your stuff
Standard liability only covers $0.60 per pound per item, so a 30-pound, $1,000 television is covered for just $18 unless you add full value protection. Pack a clear bin with essentials and keep it in your own vehicle rather than the truck.

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 Dickinson County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 61% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
