Fees That Can Shift the Final Bill
Rural access and protection choices often add charges beyond the base rate.
| Fee | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Travel / trip surcharge | Regional movers may bill for travel to Sheppton; ask whether the charge starts at their base or your door. |
| Shuttle service | Narrow roads, steep grades, or tight driveways can require transferring items to a smaller vehicle for an extra fee. |
| Released value protection | Included coverage pays .60 per pound per article; a 50 lb item would receive $30. Ask about increased coverage. |

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 Schuylkill County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 32% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
