EPISODE 9 ~ TOP TIP: Moving Companies: Never hire over the Internet

YOU SHOULD NEVER HIRE A MOVER OVER THE INTERNET. THE PROBLEM WITH HIRING MOVERS ONLINE IS THAT THEY ASK YOU TO TAKE INVENTORY OF YOUR OWN BELONGINGS AND GIVE THEM A LIST. THEN, ON MOVING DAY, THEY CLAIM YOU UNDERESTIMATED HOW MUCH STUFF YOU HAD AND THEY USE THAT AS AN EXCUSE TO JACK UP THE PRICE. INSTEAD, WHETHER MOVING LOCALLY OR LONG DISTANCE YOU MUST HIRE A MOVER WHO SENDS A PROFESSIONAL ESTIMATOR TO YOUR HOME. THEN, ASK FOR WHAT’S CALLED A “GUARANTEED NOT TO EXCEED” ESTIMATE. THAT MEANS IF YOUR STUFF WEIGHS LESS THAN THEY ESTIMATED, YOU’LL PAY LESS BUT IF IT WEIGHS MORE, YOU’LL STILL PAY THE AMOUNT THEY ESTIMATED.
