Before you book Rock Transfer & Storage Inc
- 1
Ask whether it moves you under MC154255
Rock Transfer & Storage Inc can haul an interstate move under its own authority, MC154255. 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 about the 6 out-of-service orders
6 of Rock Transfer & Storage Inc's 26 vehicle inspections ended with a truck taken off the road (23.1%, against 19.0% for all listed movers). Ask what failed, whether it was fixed, and which truck would do your move.
- 3
Ask about access for a tractor-trailer
Rock Transfer & Storage Inc files 26 tractors. 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
Ask whose truck arrives
27 of the 27 power units Rock Transfer & Storage Inc files are leased. A leased truck still runs under USDOT 222303, and the paperwork on the day should carry that number.
- 5
Judge the estimate against $515 – $845
The published model puts a two-bedroom local move in Milwaukee at $515 – $845 and a two-bedroom move to New York City, NY at $3,848 – $5,130. A surveyed, written estimate from Rock Transfer & Storage Inc far outside that is a reason to ask what it includes.
