The Moving Process
First you will be contacted by one of our sales representatives who will be your contact person. Our representative will tour your home with you, noting the estimated weight of your goods and any unusual requirements. Be prepared for this visit by listing items that require special attention or services you want such as transferring pool tables, pianos, antiques or valuables. We will list all details and include them in the contract. The representative will arrange the pickup, delivery and storage dates. We encourage you to ask questions.
Next, you will meet our packers. Walk them through your home to orient them to the rooms and your belongings that require special care. Also, point out the goods that are not to be packed. Before the packers leave, the supervisor will give you forms that itemize each carton. You will need to sign them and give them to the driver.
On moving [out] day your household goods will be organized and loaded onto the truck. All your belongings will be detailed on the packing forms and damaged or marked areas on the furniture will be noted.
After your goods are completely loaded, you will need to review all paperwork. We use codes to denote types of marks or damage, and the key to these codes will be on the form. Make sure you agree with their assessment because these codes are used to dispute claims you may file upon delivery. A slight chip will not be marked as "broken."
On moving day, know your time of delivery and be there promptly. Have a moving checklist handy and designate someone to examine the furniture and check off the goods on the form as the movers come through the door. This effort will assure that you have all your household goods.
If you have an extra person, he or she can begin unpacking boxes the movers will be willing to remove the cartons. We suggest that you begin by unpacking the larger boxes, such as clothing boxes that will go quickly, and items that belong in kitchen cabinets. It will help to get the larger boxes removed, and it will be very convenient to have your kitchen in operating condition as soon as possible.
Working With Our Movers Any good move is a cooperative effort between you and the mover. Our movers will begin your moving day by making introductions. It is a good idea that you take the time to show them around your home, pointing out special requests. Any special instructions should be well-marked and mentioned to the movers.
Ask the sales representative in advance about what the movers will expect. They will accept beverages (especially lots of cold water) and the chance to clean up, so have soap, paper towels and cold drinks on hand. Let them know where to find these necessities so they can help themselves to everything. If you have any unusual problems on moving day, speak to the driver, who is usually the person in charge at the site. Our company sales representative will be available if needed. You are a customer and this is your home with your personal property, you should expect and will receive professional courtesy.
Your Rights and Responsibilities If you are making a long-distance move, it is very important that we have your telephone number or a contact in the new area. When you plan your move, allow a few extra days in your schedule. There can be unforeseen problems that can cause a delay, such as inclement weather. In the event of a problem we will reschedule a convenient time for you. You (or a reliable friend) will need to be at your new residence at the agreed upon time of delivery for your goods.
To provide you with complete an accurate information, a booklet "Your Rights and Responsibilities" will be provided to you that outlines in more detail the rules and regulations of the moving industry. The more informed a customer is, the fewer potential problems.
Liability We carry 3 liability options: The first is a weight based liability (Mandated by the Department of Transportation) in which compensation is determined by the weight of an item. The second is a cash value liability in which compensation is made based on the actual, current value of an item. The third, full replacement value liability, offers compensation based on the replacement value of an item. Should your building require, we carry a Certificate of Liability Insurance with General Liability of one million dollars ($1,000,0000), Workman’s Compensation, and other necessary insurance policies.
Estimates Before you sign our agreement, you’ll receive an accurate and dependable cost estimate. One type of contract assures that the price quoted for your move is firm for the agreed upon services so there are no unexpected charges at the completion of the move. This estimate will be in writing, and a copy will be attached to the bill of lading. You will not be charged more unless you have added items or services in addition to your estimate. Another type of estimate is non-binding — you will not know the final charges until our movers establish actual weights and transportation charges. Rest assured that our rates are unbeatable.
Contracts After you have selected a moving date, our representative will prepare a contract for you. Before you sign the contract, we will be sure everything that you have orally agreed upon is typed into the fine print. The contract will list all the charges and terms. To help your representative give you a proper cost estimate, he or she needs to know everything that will be involved in your move. We will need a complete list of what will be transported, special furniture requirements or extras that will be moved (i.e., an automobile). In addition, we need the accessibility details about both your old and new homes. For example, we should be aware if there are three levels of steps at one of the residences, if one of the driveways is especially steep or whether there are any other particulars that will hamper or detain the moving process
Weights and Payments Our drivers will weigh the truck when it is empty and again when they load your household goods. If there is a discrepancy between the departure and destination weights, you can request that the truck be reweighed and your charges will be determined by the lower of the two weights.
