Movers and Moving Companies

Many people make the mistake of trying to get the lowest estimate, sometimes on the phone. Low estimates mean nothing. Customers need to hire a mover by hourly. or by pound if its long distance… Get the lowest hourly rate possible. If its by the pound, get the lowest per pound rate. ALWAYS GET A CONTRACT BEFORE THE MOVE, NOT ON MOVE DAY .Check the contract for extra fees. How much the movers charge for extra items, or extra pounds. Do not book a mover by cubic foot Most scams are pulled this way. If you book a mover by the pound, they have to (by law)weigh the truck before and after pickup a a certified weigh station…. Make sure and get copies. Dallas Movers

This is the biggest piece of info you should know:

By law if its an out of state move, you are only required to pay 110% of original estimate (keep copies, sign at least 2 weks ahead if possible) .

THEY CANT HOLD YOUR BELONGINGS IF YOU PAY THIS, EVEN IF YOU OWE 1 million. They hold your things until a doubled estimate… The police dont know these laws. They always say its a civil matter…. just remember they are suppossed to bill you after 30 days………and you get yor stuff.Chicago Movers
