Before you book Terry Moving and Storage Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC306297
Terry Moving and Storage Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC306297. 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 3 out-of-service orders
3 of Terry Moving and Storage Inc's 7 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (42.9%, 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
Terry Moving and Storage Inc files 11 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

The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Lake Forest at $515 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $12,740 – $16,986. A surveyed, written estimate from Terry Moving and Storage Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
