o Before you talk to the moving company, please determine what household items will be shipped and what will be sold or given away. Of course you don't want to pay for moving items you no longer need!
o think about whether you want to do packaging, or if you like moving company to deal with you.
o Ask your friends and family for reference. Request estimates from multiple companies so that you can compare stores. Participate in the estimation process and try to meet with the relocation consultant to investigate your house and write a written estimate. Be sure to ask each potential salesperson about the estimated time of validity and determine if the estimate is binding. Never accept a phone evaluation or consider using the company that provides you with this service.
o Notify the mobile of any issues on the mobile ends to make your estimates more accurate. Make the mobilizer aware of any challenges such as parking, road access, street accessibility, delivery time restrictions or stairs or lifts involved. All these problems increase your mobile costs. If your new home is on a crowded street, try to reserve a parking space for the moving truck. If moving workers must carry your load from the van to your door for more than 75 feet, they may be charged for long distances.
o Some issues to consider include blocks that prohibit trucks that exceed a certain weight. The driver will be asked to offload your belongings to a smaller vehicle, which will cost more. If you anticipate this situation, please advise the relocation consultant. Also, if you are moving to a high-rise building where you need to book an elevator, please consult an advisor. If the mover does not know this beforehand, this may lead to logistical problems and additional charges may apply.
o Contact the Bureau of Business Improvement to ask the company's complaint records. The important thing is how or whether these complaints were resolved.
o Check the transport department (DOT) license number of the transportation department. All moving companies need permission, although interstate moving companies need to meet two additional standards;
1. Post their tariffs or price lists and provide them to anyone who needs a copy.
2. Participate in the dispute settlement plan and provide neutral arbitration in the event of a dispute. Loss of or damage to the event caused by the cargo in the hands of the carrier may be controversial.
o Please refer to all porters.
o It is very clear what insurance coverage can be used for loss or damage of your shipment. All licensed porters must be responsible for the value of the goods they transport. With varying degrees of responsibilities, you need to understand the amount of protection provided and the additional costs that may need to be paid. Please see our Mobile Insurance section for different options.
o asked questions of the mobile so that there was no accident on the day of the move:
1. Even if I don't know if I need to add another flight of stairs at the time of booking, will there be extra costs? (In many cases, you may not have enough information in the estimation to be completely accurate.)
2. What is the estimated time of delivery and will the driver notify me?
3. If I make my own packaging, what type of packaging is acceptable?
4. What kind of payment method is expected? Cash, credit card, personal or certified check?
5. When will the full payment be made?
6. Will the moving company dismantle everything that needs to be disassembled? Will they reassemble all of the destination's items?
7. After initial weighing, will additional weighing be performed to determine the actual cost?
8. If I purchased liability insurance and need a claim, what is the procedure?
