Your Responsiblity During Your Move

When anyone, whether it is you or a moving company, moves household goods over the highway, there are responsibilities and rights that you and the moving company have.

1. Moving companies are not legally required to provide an estimate for services. You should however ask for one.

2. Moving companies are required to prepare a bill of lading for any shipment being transported. That is the contract you have with the mover. You must be provided with a copy before your furniture is loaded and should read it carefully before accepting it.

3. Make sure that either you, or the moving company, inventories everything in the shipment. Sign each page of the inventory copy after checking it carefully.

4. Moving companies do have to assume some degree of liability for the goods they transport. Mare sure you are aware of the different levels of liability and the cost to you for each one.
