Before you book Manning Transfer Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC135439
Manning Transfer Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC135439. 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 12 out-of-service orders
12 of Manning Transfer Inc's 51 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (23.5%, 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
Manning Transfer Inc files 60 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
24 of the 60 power units Manning Transfer Inc files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 116111, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $535 – $873
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Blaine at $535 – $873 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $5,324 – $7,098. A surveyed, written estimate from Manning Transfer Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
