Before you book Wilkinsburg Moving Exchange
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC178323
Wilkinsburg Moving Exchange can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC178323. 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 Wilmerding references
With no roadside inspection on file for the last 24 months, the federal record says nothing about Wilkinsburg Moving Exchange's trucks either way. Two recent customers in or near Wilmerding you can call will tell you more than the register can.
- 3
Check the truck fits your home
No Wilkinsburg Moving Exchange 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 $495 – $817
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Wilmerding at $495 – $817 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $1,598 – $2,130. A surveyed, written estimate from Wilkinsburg Moving Exchange far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
