YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES - POINTS TO REMEMBER

  • Movers may give binding estimates.
  • Non-binding estimates may not be accurate; actual charges may often exceed the estimate.
  • Specify pickup and delivery dates in the order for service.
  • The Bill of Lading is your contract with the mover... READ IT CAREFULLY... If you have any questions ask your mover.
  • Be sure that you understand the extent of your mover's liability for loss and damage.
  • You have the right to be present each time your shipment is weighed.
  • You may request a reweigh of your shipment.
  • If you have moved on a non-binding estimate, you should have enough cash or a certified check to pay the estimated cost of your move plus 10 percent more at time of delivery.
  • Unresolved claims for loss or damage may be submitted to arbitration; ask your mover for details.
