Before you book Move Happy Acme
- 1

- 2
Ask about the 8 out-of-service orders
8 of Move Happy Acme's 39 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (20.5%, 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
Move Happy Acme files 31 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.
