With dozens of moving service providers competing for your business and advertizing themselves on the internet, selecting a relocation company can become a daunting task. However, posing a few basic questions and answering them in an orderly manner, can actually help you to select a mover with ease.
Let’s take a look at a few of these basic questions.
Reputation and Location of the Service Provider
Almost all movers that you will see in your internet search will present themselves as local and highly reputable. You need to do a thorough background check in order to make sure this is actually the case.
Company reputations should be checked through unbiased websites and sources, such as the Better Business Bureau and the Federal Motor Carrier Administration. It can also be helpful to request references from customers who’d undergone similar moves to the ones you are about to make.
Check that the local address you’ve received is genuine. You may also want to pay an actual visit to the mover’s headquarters to make sure everything is on the up and up.
Selecting the Right Mover
Your relocation service provider should be experienced in the particular type of move you need to perform. Check and double check, especially if you need long distance moving services, that your mover has the necessary facilities, manpower and resources in both pick up and destination locations.
If the mover offers you storage services, make sure your goods will actually be stored in their facilities and not in a self-storage facility.
