How much do Americans move?

Happened to see these numbers on the website of the United States Postal Service:

17% of Americans change addresses annually.

45 million people move each year.

Approximately one out of every six families moves each year.

Wow! I have heard that the USA is a very mobile country in comparison to other countries around the world and these numbers seem to confirm it.

I wonder if our local rates in the Sarasota-Bradenton area are higher, lower or about the same? I suspect higher, which is good for us moving companies.

However, moving can be very chaotic and difficult if you're not prepared. Check out our YouTube channel www.youtube.com/strongermoving for short videos to help you pack and prepare like a pro.

Businesses on the Move

As amateur real estate market watchers, we found this article very interesting:

"Lower rents have Southwest Florida businesses on the move" (Sarasota Herald-Tribune)

While we work mostly with residential moves, we have moved several businesses and even done work for nonprofits as well. Our website testimonials are primarily from homes we've moved, but if a business would like referrals from other businesses, we are happy to provide them.

Incidentally, we couldn't agree more with what Art from Lexjet said in the article from the Herald-Trib: "We believe happy employees make for happy customers." Amen.
