Fees to ask about before booking
- Travel or fuel fees often equal one to two hours of labor or a flat amount, so ask whether travel time is double-driven or capped.
- Stroudsburg’s narrow roads, steep driveways, tight turns, and gated or HOA communities can force a shuttle fee if a full-size truck cannot reach the home. Disclose the street layout before move day.
- Rates climb between May and September and on the first or last day of the month. A Tuesday or Wednesday mid-month date is usually cheaper.
- Skip phone-only ballpark estimates. A visual or virtual walkthrough protects the price, because unlisted heavy items added on moving day can push hourly time or fees higher.
Keep these items out of the truck
Houseplants, open cleaning fluids, propane tanks, and personal electronics or irreplaceable documents and medications may be refused. Carry laptops, backup drives, and essential paperwork in your own vehicle.

Stroudsburg refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $74,924 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Pennsylvania report $56,521. Long-distance arrivals are the higher-budget half of the market.
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 Monroe 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.
