Before you book Alexander Moving Company
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC281584
Alexander Moving Company can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC281584. 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 for Mentor references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Alexander Moving Company's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Mentor you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Judge the estimate against $465 – $761
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Mentor at $465 – $761 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $2,025 – $2,700. A surveyed, written estimate from Alexander Moving Company far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
