Local Moving
A local move, in most cases, is a move done
from city to city within a state or in a 50-mile radius from your current
location.
All local moves are regulated by your state's Department of Transportation
(DOT) or the Public Utilities Conference (PUC). The industry standard
is to charge by the hour.
The rate depends on the number of movers and the number of trucks that
are required for the job. Your estimator will make the proper determination.
If packing is needed, that too is charged by the hour. Materials are
charged based on actual usage.
Your standard moving insurance is included in the price. Additional
insurance can be secured on the day of the move. Usually local moves
are completed within 1-3 days depending on the circumstances.

 Remember to contact your local post office and fill our forwarding address forms. Additionally, leaving a small welcome card with your forwarding address for the people moving into your old home is a nice way of asking for any additional pieces of your mail to be redirected. |
