Before you book JP Urban Moving
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC882954
JP Urban Moving can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC882954. 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
JP Urban Moving had 14 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
Check the truck fits your home
No JP Urban Moving 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 $515 – $845
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Brooklyn at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to Los Angeles, CA at $12,843 – $17,124. A surveyed, written estimate from JP Urban Moving far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
