Long-distance Urbana, Ohio Movers
Are you nervous about your upcoming move to or from Urbana, Ohio? It’s only natural to be a bit anxious. Most people don’t move often, and these days, we hear more reports of unscrupulous companies taking advantage of their customers. You probably wonder how to avoid those movers. If so, Three Movers suggests that you watch out for these red flags:
- Don't trust a hauling company offering you a price over the phone that sounds too good to be true if they won't write the quote and haven't seen your shipment in person. Sometimes, when loading the truck, these movers demand much more money, and then you are stuck paying them. Federal regulations require a written estimate and a visual assessment, so don’t accept a verbal offer—it’s not worth the risk.
- It's also suspicious if the mover wants you to pay a substantial deposit in advance—particularly if they insist on cash. It's much easier to get your money back if you use a credit card and something goes wrong, but movers typically get paid when they deliver the shipment, not before they do any work. If you pay them upfront, you may never see the mover (or your furniture) again.
Local Hauling Companies
Since local movers in Ohio are not regulated the way long-distance vendors are, it’s up to you to ensure that the movers you engage are qualified. Here are some tips to assist:
- Ask for their current business license.
- Ask how long they have been operating.
- Ask how much liability insurance they carry and if they have a workers' compensation program.
- Check local review sites like Yelp and the Better Business Bureau
- Ask if they belong to any mover’s associations.
- Request a written estimate based on a visual review of the job, just as you would with a long-distance move. This step will give you a better assessment and allow you to meet the mover in advance.
How Much Does It Cost?
Move prices vary depending on the size of the shipment, the distance from the origin to the destination, and other factors that affect the labor charges. Compare written estimates to determine the cost of your upcoming move.
