Let's see how many people move within New Hampshire versus those who moved from Granite State to another state.
Statistical data show that the interstate moves in New Hampshire have been overwhelmingly more than the local household moves within the same state: 23% local moves vs. 77% out-of-state moves.
It is obvious that more people have opted to move out of New Hampshire than to relocate within its state limits. It’s important to note that planning and organizing a cross-country move can be a really tough task, especially if the most time-consuming task of packing for a move has not been initiated right away.
Should you happen to have a dispute with a local mover in New Hampshire, the New Hampshire Department of Transportation (NHDOT) is the regulatory body to turn to for assistance on how to file a complaint against your professional partner. The NHDOT oversees intrastate movers and makes sure each company that has a special NHPC number meets the minimum safety and insurance requirements to operate legally within the state.
