Where do Stratmoor moving crews come from?
Stratmoor is an unincorporated community next to Colorado Springs, so residents tend to book movers from the wider Colorado Springs metro area.
What fees and estimate terms should I check?
- Travel fees are common; some movers charge one flat hour of labor, while others add a mileage amount to cover the trip from the warehouse to the house and back.
- Stairs, long hallway carries, pianos, and heavy safes can bring added charges.
- A binding estimate guarantees the total price; a non-binding estimate can change based on final weight or actual time. Ask for a written, signed copy.
How do I avoid moving-day surprises?
- Intrastate movers in Colorado must hold a valid permit from the Colorado Public Utilities Commission; verify the PUC number before booking.
- Before asking for a price, check closets, attic storage, and the garage; anything left out can raise the final bill or leave the truck too small.
- For a summer move or a snowy day, save a parking spot right by the door so the crew does not add hourly time for long carries.

Stratmoor refills from a distance: nearby counties pull households out, and the rest of the country more than replaces them. Head count stayed flat all the same — arriving households are smaller (1.8 people on average) than the ones leaving (1.84), so the city gained homes without gaining residents.
Each bar shows that state's in/out split — rows are ranked by total volume.
Households arriving from another state report $66,889 in average annual income; those relocating from elsewhere in Colorado report $61,905. 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 El Paso County rather than city limits exactly, misses people who don't file a return, and leaves 28% of moves unattributed to a specific county, because flows too small to publish are grouped into regional buckets instead.
