Choosing a mover: Important documents

If you are moving to a different state you need to receive important documentation from your mover.

The documents you need to receive from your mover are:

    1. An "Order for Service" signed by your mover.

The Order for Service protects you by spelling out the agreement between you and your mover regarding the dates the shipment will be loaded and delivered, the estimated cost, and (if you are moving to a different state) the fact that the mover can only collect 110% of the estimate at the time of delivery.

    2. A written estimate with an itemized breakdown of all charges that makes up the estimate for your moving cost.

Prior to the move date, insist on an in-home visual inspection of the goods you are moving. Accurate estimates can seldom be provided over the telephone. Remember: estimates given over the phone in most cases will be lower then the actual cost of your move.

    3. A "Table of Measurements".

The estimator must create a table of all items that need to be moved. This helps calculating the size and weight of your move.

If the mover is hesitant to provide you with any of these items you should consider not using this moving company.
