There are numerous ways to find a moving company: Yellow Pages, Local Newspapers, Flyers, or the Internet.
Here at the MoversEway Network we have done the work for you!
Within our nationwide listing of moving companies, you can rest assured that each and every mover that advertises or lists their Company with us is licensed, insured, and reputable. if you feel the need to do some investigation on your own, you can call your local regulatory agency to make sure that the company is operating legally in your state. If you are moving interstate, call the FHWA in your area to confirm that your mover has an ICCMC # (Interstate Commerce Commission Motor Carrier) or US DOT operating authority. Once you have called your local regulatory agency and/or the Federal DOT/F.H.A. to insure the moving company is licensed, you may call your local Better Business Bureau to check on a company.
