This usually refers to moves that are less than 100 miles and within the same state.
What is an intrastate move?
This refers to a move of more than 100 miles within the same state.
What is valuation insurance?
Valuation insurance covers you for any damage that occurs to your belongings while they are in transit or stored in another vehicle.
What should I do if I haven’t finished packing by my moving day?
If you realized you won’t be finished packing by your move date, make sure to inform your moving company as soon as possible. You may be able to hire professional packers to help you finish the job or move on a different date. Your movers may be able to pack up a small amount of items, but you will end up paying more for the move.
Should I disassemble my furniture before the move?
You can do this if you have time, but it’s not required. If your movers need to dismantle any furniture, they will reassemble it in your new home.
Will my moving company get rid of any extra trash?
Yes, but they will charge you for any items they need to take to a waste disposal location, including the time required to drive to and from the area and the management fee required.
What is in interstate move?
This refers to a move to another state where you cross another state’s border.
Are movers able to transport my pets?
No, moving trucks are not properly equipped to transport pets and the box can be dangerous because of heavy objects. If possible, keep your pets at a friend, family member’s or kennel during the day of your move.
What is a flight charge?
This is an extra charge for carrying items up or down flights of stairs.
How can I ensure I will be finished packing by my moving day?
Many people tend to underestimate the amount of items to pack and the time required to do so. They may also expect more people to help on the actual moving day, even though some people may not be available. Avoid this by following an organized packing plan and allot more time than you believe you will require for packing.
Can my movers disconnect my gas?
No, movers are not licensed to disconnect gas so you will have to hire another professional to perform this service.
Why do movers place shipments from more than one household on a trailer during long distance moves?
This is much more efficient and allows the moving company to lower their costs. Direct shipments are usually available, but they will cost you more.
