Who makes this move
The reverse count on that survey is 2,684 people moving from Georgia to Connecticut.
Census counts 3,760 people moving from Connecticut to Georgia. ACS 2024 counts 3,760 people on that flow, with a margin of plus or minus 1,767. The reverse count on that survey is 2,684 people moving from Georgia to Connecticut. Those figures count people on the survey, separate from any booked moving job.
Connecticut price parity is 103.6 and Georgia is 96.3. BEA sets the US index at 100 for 2024, and these two readings sit on that scale. Both states tax wages. The parity number is a statewide price level, so it will not match your rent, groceries, or a single city inside the state.
What the job looks like
Our file for this lane holds 19 reviews, and that sample is small.
The most common run in our file is Hartford to Atlanta. That trip is about 995 miles, and about 19 hours if you drive it in one stretch. A moving truck still needs time to load and unload around those hours. The map can look tidy while the job takes more than one calendar day.
Our file for this lane holds 19 reviews, and that sample is small. The median reported price is $4,500 across 19 priced reviews, and the middle half runs from $2,500 to $6,387. Those prices mix home sizes and distances. Weight and miles still set the bid, which is why one household's figure can sit far from the median.
The delivery window is set on the order for service. You should see a first date and a last date written on that order. Ask for the window in writing before you treat the bid as final. If the truck misses it, the dates on the order are the record you and the mover both signed.
Before you book
On a non-binding estimate the mover must deliver once you pay 110 percent of the estimate.
Book a mover with an active USDOT number and FMCSA household-goods authority. Interstate household moves require both. Confirm the number and the authority before any deposit. Haulest is not a carrier. Check the licence against the name on the estimate so the salesperson and the federal record refer to the same company.
On a non-binding estimate the mover must deliver once you pay 110 percent of the estimate. A binding estimate or a not-to-exceed estimate works differently, because the ceiling is written up front. How to read a moving estimate shows which form you are holding. Read the 110 percent rule before you agree to a non-binding number on a run this long.
Put the delivery window and the deposit terms in writing. The window belongs on the order for service, with a start date and an end date. Deposit terms belong on that same paperwork. Read moving company deposit terms before you pay, then keep the signed window and the deposit line together in your file.
