- Be aware that prior to any interstate move, government regulations require your moving organization to supply you with a booklet published by the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, which is titled Your Rights and Responsibilities When You Move.
- Avoid organizations that have no physical location where they conduct business or that cannot provide information about their licenses.
- Ask for a duplicate of your moving organization’s insurance.
- Find out if your moving organization is just an intermediary for another company.
- Make sure you’re involved in the process. Make inquiries. Get everything in writing, and read the document before you sign.
