Before you book Quality Moving Service Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC432197
Quality Moving Service Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC432197. If the written estimate names a van line or another carrier, that company is the one legally responsible for your goods, so check its number too.
- 2
Ask for Palmer references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Quality Moving Service Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Palmer you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Quality Moving Service Inc files 1 tractor. If a full rig cannot reach your door, the move needs a shuttle truck, which is a separate line on the bill; ask before the estimate is written.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $515 – $845
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Palmer at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $17,456 – $23,274. A surveyed, written estimate from Quality Moving Service Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
