Fees and surcharges around Aristes
Because Aristes is rural, these charges may appear on top of the base rate.
| Fee or surcharge | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Rural/travel fee | May be added for distance from the mover's base; ask whether billing starts at the warehouse. |
| Shuttle fee | May apply if low trees, narrow roads, or a steep driveway block a 26-foot truck. |
| Packing services | Raise costs through labor hours and marked-up boxes, tape, and wrap; packing yourself avoids this. |

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 Columbia County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 45% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
