Once the truck crosses the state line, federal rules apply: a written estimate after a survey, no more than 110% of a non-binding estimate collected at delivery, a choice of valuation, and a delivery window on the bill of lading. Binding vs non-binding estimates, valuation and who regulates movers cover each rule. Every long-distance mover in North Carolina is ranked on the state page.
Before you book a Arden mover
Open the carrier's USDOT number on the federal record and check the name matches the company quoting you, get the estimate in writing after a survey, and pay little or nothing up front. The red flags and broker vs carrier explain why each check matters.
