Before you book Shadowens Moving and Storage Co Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC183427
Shadowens Moving and Storage Co Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC183427. 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 Louisville references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Shadowens Moving and Storage Co Inc's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Louisville you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Shadowens Moving and Storage Co Inc 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 Louisville at $505 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $3,398 – $4,530. A surveyed, written estimate from Shadowens Moving and Storage Co Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
