Before you book Five College Movers LLC
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC692772
Five College Movers LLC can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC692772. 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 which truck and crew you get
Five College Movers LLC had 16 roadside inspections in 24 months and 1 vehicle out-of-service order (12.5% against 19.0%). The record covers the company; the truck and crew on your day are what you are buying.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Five College Movers 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
Ask whose truck arrives
6 of the 6 power units Five College Movers LLC files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 1947212, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $525 – $859
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Northampton at $525 – $859 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $693 – $924. A surveyed, written estimate from Five College Movers LLC far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
