Before you book International Sea & Air Shipping
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC718931
International Sea & Air Shipping can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC718931. 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
International Sea & Air Shipping had 7 roadside inspections in 24 months and 0 vehicle out-of-service orders (0.0% against 19.0%). The record covers the company; the truck and crew on your day are what you are buying.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
International Sea & Air Shipping files 1 tractor. 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

The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Elmont at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to Los Angeles, CA at $12,915 – $17,220. A surveyed, written estimate from International Sea & Air Shipping far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
