Before you book Day Transfer Company Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC72958
Day Transfer Company Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC72958. 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 11 out-of-service orders
11 of Day Transfer Company Inc's 27 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (40.7%, 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
Day Transfer Company Inc files 51 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
3 of the 80 power units Day Transfer Company Inc files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 2441154, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $465 – $761
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Cape Girardeau at $465 – $761 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $4,545 – $6,060. A surveyed, written estimate from Day Transfer Company Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
