A two-bedroom move in Indianapolis: 2 movers × 5–7 hours × $41–$51 an hour, plus $75 travel, is $485 – $789.

Before you book Wheaton World Wide Moving
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC87113
Wheaton World Wide Moving can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC87113. 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 88 out-of-service orders
88 of Wheaton World Wide Moving's 405 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (21.7%, 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
Wheaton World Wide Moving files 651 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
Ask whose truck arrives
767 of the 767 power units Wheaton World Wide Moving files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 70719, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $485 – $789
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Indianapolis at $485 – $789 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $3,344 – $4,458. A surveyed, written estimate from Wheaton World Wide Moving far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
