How can I find the best mover from Florida to Arizona?

Finding a good hauling company starts with research. Ask people you know, and then go further to find out as much as you can about the companies you are considering for your moving service. Because moving from Florida to Arizona is interstate commerce, movers on that route are regulated by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA). You can gather great information on its website about what movers are required to do, and what to look out for. Because the haulers must register with FMCSA, you can search for data on each company's safety record, and any consumer complaints.

The website offers several helpful resources, including Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move, which moving companies also are obligated to furnish to you. This publication explains how moving works, inventory turnover and what haulers will include in your estimate, inventory, order for service, and bill of lading. It details the differences between binding and non-binding estimates and why you should compare several. There is a section about the mover's liability, customer demand and the claim process, and how your actions affect your ability to collect from the mover when something goes wrong. It also discusses deliveries, including early and delayed deliveries, storage-in-transit, raw materials and weighing shipment. Finally, the brochure define inventory and key hauling industry terms and provides resources for consumers regarding disputes.

Should I use a broker to find a Florida Hauling Firm?

Using a moving company broker might be a good idea, but it might lead you to a scam if you aren't careful. Moving brokers are a middleman between consumers and hauling companies; they don't perform hauls. If you engage a good one, and they have robust agreements with good hauling companies, you may be able to save time and money. Just watch out for red flags. Remember that brokers, like movers, must register with FMCSA and display a motor carrier number. Brokers must acknowledge that they are not moving companies, and they can only provide estimates on behalf of moving companies with which they maintain written agreements. In those instances, the forecast has to be determined by that mover's tariff (description of fees).

In a best-case scenario, a reputable broker will get your details, so you only have to go through them once. That saves you time. Then that broker finds a hauls that wants the job and is willing to take it at a reasonable price. That saves you money, so you benefit all the way around. But in a worst-case scenario, the broker asks for a large cash deposit during wip inventory, and the rogue mover loads up your cherished possessions and disappears.

Most of the horror stories about brokers (and movers) seem to involve fly-by-night companies that aren’t in compliance with FMCSA, so your best means of protection is to check for registration, and also check out the company with the Better Business Bureau. Online reviews may offer some insight, but they can be manipulated, so put your trust in personal recommendations if possible.

What are the other scams should I look for?

Definitely be suspicious if a moving company doesn't want to do an in-person inspection of the anticipation stock. FMCSA regulations require this step, and it just makes sense. If the representative tells you they can devise an accurate estimate based on your verbal description, they are cutting corners, and you shouldn’t trust them. The mover could be inept, or possibly planning to give you a lowball estimate, after which it will demand a much higher amount of money as “ransom” for your hostage belongings.
Be wary of a request for a large or cash deposit. Moving fees should be paid on delivery. If you pay in advance, you lose your leverage, and who knows when or if the mover will show up. If you pay a deposit, use a credit card, so you have recourse to challenge the charge if things go sideways later.
Watch out for hauling companies that change their name a lot. If the phone at the office is answered with a generic greeting like “moving company” instead of “Bob’s Mover’s,” or no one answers at all, that's not a good sign. Similarly, if Bob's Movers uses a rental truck or something that looks like it has made one too many trips down the highway, or provide you with too little inventory, you have reason to be suspicious. Again, the company must display the Department of Transportation number assigned to it, and you can use that to track its history and record.
Never sign blank or incomplete documents. The estimate must state whether it is binding or non-binding and must include the inventory on which it is based. It is essential that everything that is going in the truck is detailed on the inventory. If it isn't listed, it doesn't exist. If the haulers tries to change the quoted price during the loading process, stop them from working until you agree on a new amount, and both parties sign a revised estimate.
When you accept delivery, do not sign a receipt that states that every revenue generation is accounted for. Unless you have opened every box and can verify that it is correct, strike out any language that may release the mover from liability until you can inspect your shipment.

What does the valuation protection mean?

Valuation protection is like insurance, but it is coverage provided by the hauling company. Hopefully, nothing will go wrong during the move, but sometimes it does. The moving company is liable for the value of the goods it is moving for you, but with limits. Your mover will offer you two choices, with some exclusions. The default valuation choice is provided at an additional cost to you and is called Full (Replacement) Value Coverage. If anything in your shipment is lost or damaged, the hauls will either replace or repair it, or reimburse you for replacing it or repairing it. The cost of this coverage depends on what the shipment is worth and is something you will discuss with the mover ahead of the hauls. There is usually a deductible, and any item of high value (defined as over $100 per pound) must be expressly noted on the inventory.

Some consumers instead choose the Waiver of Full (Replacement) Value Coverage, which means they choose minimal coverage at no added cost. This coverage allows for reimbursement for lost or damaged items at $0.60 per pound during demand forecasting, which will not approach the cost of most articles in your shipment. For example, your 15-pound Italian racing bike, which may cost $1,200 to replace, will be reimbursed at $9.00 with this coverage. Likewise, you will only be offered $12.00 for your 20-pound flat-screen television if it is dropped. If you select the Waiver coverage, do so with the understanding that you are betting nothing will go wrong. If anything does, you are on your own. With either coverage option, look at the fine print, and be sure that you are aware of exceptions and limitations. You are shipping your personal goods sold, and you want to be sure they are protected.

Obtain Multiple Quotes: Get quotes from different moving companies and compare their rates and services. This will help you find the most cost-effective option.

Choose Off-Peak Times: Opt for moving during non-peak seasons or days of the week. Rates tend to be lower during weekdays and outside of busy moving seasons.

Consider a DIY Move: If feasible, consider renting a hauling truck and handling the packing and loading yourself. This can be more cost-effective than hiring a full-service moving company.

Shared Truck Space: If you’re using a moving company, inquire about shared truck space or consolidated moves. Sharing truck space with other customers can significantly reduce costs.

Pack Yourself: Packing your belongings yourself can save on packing services. Use free or low-cost packing materials and boxes.

Use Free Supplies: Ask local stores, supermarkets, or friends for spare boxes and packing materials. This can help you avoid purchasing brand new supplies.

Optimize Moving Truck Size: Choose the right size of hauling truck. An oversized truck can result in unnecessary expenses, while an undersized truck might require multiple trips.

Drive Your Car: If possible, drive your own car to Arizona. This can save on the cost of shipping or transporting your vehicle.

Negotiate Hauling Costs: Don’t hesitate to negotiate with moving companies. Ask if there are any discounts or promotions available.

Sell and Rebuy: For large, heavy furniture, consider selling these items before the move and buying replacements in Arizona. The cost of transporting heavy furniture might outweigh the cost of replacement.

Look for Tax Deductions: Depending on your circumstances, some moving expenses might be tax-deductible. Consult a tax professional to see if you qualify.

Travel Light: Pack essentials for the journey and initial days in Arizona. This can save on both packing and transportation costs.

Budget for Unforeseen Expenses: Set aside a contingency fund for unexpected costs that might arise during the move.

DIY Unpacking: After the move, take your time unpacking. Doing it yourself over a few days can save on the cost of hiring unpacking services.

Remember that while cutting costs is important, don’t compromise the safety and security of your belongings. Be cautious when selecting cost-saving strategies and ensure that your belongings are adequately protected throughout the move.
