A few plain warnings
Make sure you are booking directly with a licensed carrier, not a broker who resells your job to someone else. Ask for their US DOT number and check it against the federal registry before you hand over a deposit.
Maine weather is its own factor. A move during winter or early spring means ice and snowbanks around the driveway, which can slow the crew down even if they are used to working in the cold.
Movers generally will not disconnect gas lines or hardwired appliances themselves, that is a liability issue, so plan to handle those ahead of time. Before the crew shows up, take photos or a video walkthrough of anything valuable so you have proof if something gets damaged along the way.

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 Penobscot County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 46% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
