Before you Move*
Obtain the brochure Ready to Move? and the
booklet Your Rights and Responsibilities When
You Move from the mover.
Ask for recommendations from neighbors, friends
and relatives regarding the mover.
Check with the Better Business Bureau regarding
the mover.
Find out what the mover's responsibilities are for
damages that may occur to your belongings.
Ask if the mover has a dispute settlement program.
Obtain estimates from at least three movers, and
compare cost and all other services to be
provided by the mover.
Check to determine whether the interstate mover is
registered with the FMCSA, and has a USDOT
number.
Find out how and when pickup and delivery of your
household goods will occur.
Ask the mover how they can be contacted before the
move, during the move, and after the move.
Adequately insure your belongings.
Moving Day
Be present to answer questions and give directions
to the movers. Stay until they finish.
Accompany the movers as they inventory your
household goods and resolve any questions
regarding the condition of materials being
moved.
Carefully read the information on the estimate,
order for service, bill of lading, inventory,
and all other completed documents before you
sign them.
Keep the bill of lading until your goods are
delivered, the charges are paid, and any claims
are settled.
Before the moving van leaves, take one final look
throughout the house to make certain nothing has
been left behind.
Give the driver directions to your new house.
Inform the driver and the moving company of where
you can be reached during the move.
Delivery Day
Be present to answer any questions and give
directions.
Pay the driver, according to the term of your
agreement, before the goods are unloaded.
Supervise unloading and unpacking of your goods.
Note on the inventory list all boxes or other
items that are damaged before you sign any
documents.
