Licensed movers will not transport propane tanks, fertilizer, aerosol cans, bleach, open liquor bottles, car batteries, pool chemicals or perishables. These items must go in a personal vehicle to avoid delays.
Ohio law sets basic released-value protection at $0.60 per pound per article. A 30-pound television valued at $1,000 would therefore be covered for only $18. Additional coverage can be purchased for antiques or electronics.

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 Hardin County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 38% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
