Before you book Moving Services Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC246630
Moving Services Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC246630. 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 about the 1 out-of-service order
1 of Moving Services Inc's 1 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (100.0%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Moving Services Inc files 2 tractors. 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 Tucson at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $11,106 – $14,808. A surveyed, written estimate from Moving Services Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
