Before you book Frontier Movers
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC483900
Frontier Movers can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC483900. 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 Pagosa Springs references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Frontier Movers's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Pagosa Springs you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
