Order: carriers with active interstate authority and insurance on file first, then by number of reviews, then companies with recent FMCSA updates, then by fleet size. Payment never changes the order.
A 10-minute check using public FMCSA records: USDOT and MC numbers, household goods authority, insurance, carrier or broker, and the warning signs to look for.
The warning signs FMCSA lists for moving fraud, how the "hostage load" scheme works, and what the law says a mover can and cannot demand at delivery.
A carrier moves your belongings with its own trucks. A broker sells your move to a carrier. How to tell which one you are talking to, and what to ask a broker.
What binding and non-binding estimates mean, the 110% rule at delivery, Full Value Protection versus Released Value at 60 cents per pound, and how to file a damage claim.
