Before you book Art Van Lines USA Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC449459
Art Van Lines USA Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC449459. 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 3 out-of-service orders
3 of Art Van Lines USA Inc's 3 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (100.0%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Art Van Lines USA 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 $465 – $761
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Secaucus at $465 – $761 and a two-bedroom move to Los Angeles, CA at $12,812 – $17,082. A surveyed, written estimate from Art Van Lines USA Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
