How to choose among long distance moving companies st louis

  • Interstate movers must hold a USDOT number and MC operating authority; verify both in the FMCSA database.
  • Ask whether the estimate is binding or non-binding; only a binding estimate caps the price.
  • Insist on an in-home or video survey before any written estimate.
  • Ask if you are dealing with a broker or the carrier that will actually move you.
  • Compare valuation coverage: basic release value pays 60 cents per pound; full value protection costs extra.
