How to Choose a Reputable Moving Company

---

The lowest quoted or estimated price is not necessarily the total or final cost of the move.

Before selecting a mover, it is extremely important to educate yourself on the basics of

moving. Here are some things to consider before you choose a moving company:

• How long has the company been in business? Check with the Department of Transportation to see if this is a reputable mover.
• Investigate standards and training programs. Ask if the company completes background checks on the people coming into your home.
• Meet a company representative in person. Never choose a mover based solely on a website.

• For Long-Distance moves, ask about actual weight versus a binding estimate.
• Read the fine print. Only the articles and services listed on the binding estimate are included in the price.
• Always request a written copy of the estimate.

• Transportation — based on weight and distance, or time and materials
• Extras like shuttling, crating and third-party services (appliance hookup, cleaning, etc.)
• Valuation
• Storage Options
• Insurance Related Charges
• Fuel Surcharge

When trying to choose a reputable moving company, it is imperative to get a visual assessment performed of everything to be moved.  An accurate estimate is critical for a stress-free move.  At Andrews Moving and Storage of Streetsboro, we will always provide an estimated price that reflects what we believe to be what is needed to execute a safe and stress-free move.  We will never provide a low price in order to book a move.
