How to Pick a Moving Company

• Ensure that the company is licensed and insured.
• Ask whether the movers are full-time employees or day laborers.
• Check with the Department of Transportation to see whether the moving company you are considering has a license to operate.
• Does the moving company pay workers’ compensation for their movers? Make sure that you are not liable if a mover gets injured on your premises.
• How do they charge hourly or by weight? Are there any additional fees? Do they charge extra for large items?
• What are the procedures if damage or loss occurs?
