Because Mount Pleasant is a college town, moving around the end of April, early May, or mid-to-late August — when students turn over leases — means more traffic, fuller apartment elevators, and fewer open mover slots, so book well ahead if your dates land there. Ask whether travel time from the crew's warehouse to your home is billed separately from loading time. Push for a binding estimate rather than a verbal one, since a non-binding quote can rise 10 percent or more at delivery. Basic liability is capped at $0.60 per pound per item by law, so a broken 30-pound, $1,000 TV would only pay out $18 — ask about full value protection if that's not enough coverage for you.

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 Isabella County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 38% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
