Before you book Cartwright Van Lines LLC
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC88368
Cartwright Van Lines LLC can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC88368. 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 Fort Wayne references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Cartwright Van Lines LLC's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Fort Wayne you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Ask whose truck arrives
1 of the 1 power units Cartwright Van Lines LLC files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 64160, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $485 – $789
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Fort Wayne at $485 – $789 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $3,060 – $4,080. A surveyed, written estimate from Cartwright Van Lines LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
