When planning a move, hiring professional help will go a long way toward ensuring your relocation is smooth and stress-free. However, not every moving company offers the same level of service. Simply choosing whoever gives you the lowest quote can end up being a costly mistake. Use the following information to help you avoid selecting the wrong movers. 

The Dangers of Hiring an Unqualified Moving Service

There are certain industry standards and regulations a moving company should comply with when organizing and performing a relocation. An unqualified service may not follow these rules and put your belongings at risk. If they also don’t have proper insurance, there is no coverage to replace items or compensate you if any of your possessions are damaged, lost, or stolen.

Signs You’re Dealing With Amateur Movers 

Working with amateur movers can significantly delay your relocation, which is why you need to know how to spot an inadequate moving company. Watch out for any service that can’t provide you with appropriate paperwork, refuses to give you an official business address or references, demands to be paid upfront, or presents a low-ball estimate. It’s always a good idea to review a company’s Better Business Bureau® rating and complaint history before agreeing to hire them.
