Moving within vs moving out of Virginia

Let's see how many people move within Virginia versus those who moved from The Old Dominion to another state.

Moved Within VA
34%
Moved out of VA
66%

Statistical facts show that 34% of the people in Virginia have moved locally (without crossing any state lines), while 66% of them have opted to move out of state to another town or city in the country.

So, more Virginians have decided to leave their state of origin and seek personal happiness someplace else. If you’re also planning a cross-country move anytime soon, don’t put off the all-important task of packing up your things. Initiate the packing job right after you book your interstate mover.

Who regulates Virginia local movers

All intrastate movers in Virginia must hold a certificate issued by the Virginia Department of Motor Vehicles. Household goods carriers must comply with the DMV insurance and bond requirements. Upon applying, movers are obliged to file their tariff and bill of lading. If you are moving in Virginia locally, then search the Department of Motor Vehicles’s database for registered moving companies here.
