Before you book H Johnson Moving Company LLC
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC247599
H Johnson Moving Company LLC can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC247599. 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 Newport references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about H Johnson Moving Company LLC's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Newport you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No H Johnson Moving Company LLC driver holds a CDL, so its trucks are rated 26,000 lb or less. For a three- or four-bedroom home, ask how many trucks or trips the estimate assumes; on an hourly job a second trip is paid time.
- 4
Judge the estimate against $505 – $817
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Newport at $505 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $2,970 – $3,960. A surveyed, written estimate from H Johnson Moving Company LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
