There are nearly 18,000 companies in the moving services industry, comprised mostly of small businesses that are under
regulated. The USMPO is an agency dedicated to improving the logistics and safety of household moves. Protect your
move, and be aware of how to choose the right moving company.
1) Take a thorough inventory
An itemized inventory is the first and most important step in getting an accurate price quote. It calculates the total volume of your move, which is used to determine how much labor and truck space is needed. When comparing quotes, make sure that your volume is consistent! When in doubt, always overestimate your cubic feet and avoid estimates that are expressed in weight.
2) Saving money on your move is as simple as picking the right mover.
Don't be fooled by the lowest price. Moving costs such as gas, labor wages, and packing materials are standardized. The difference between a cheap quote and the real price reflects on the day of the move, either through unqualified day-workers, damages, or price increases. Often times the company with the lowest price will make up for the difference on the day of the move. Interstate moves originating in the East Coast should never be below $1800. Interstate moves originating on the West Coast should never be below $2000. Companies deviating from the base rate are linked to unscrupulous business practices such as “low balling” and bait & switch tactics.
3) Make sure your mover is verified

Does USMPO Offer Packing and Unpacking Services?
How Does USMPO Ensure the Quality of South Dakota Moving Companies?
Before we even let a mover into our marketplace, we look over megabytes of authentic customer reviews. We also check out their services, their certifications, and their insurance. To keep the movers in our network honest,USMPO will sometimes have secret shoppers call in, pose as customers, and ask plenty of questions to make sure our carriers are staying legit.
Do Most Movers Provide Storage?
Some movers provide storage units, but not all of them. It’s always a good idea to shop around for a moving company that can provide all the services you’ll need. Fortunately, USMPO’s marketplace lets you see what’s on the menu with each mover, including secure storage options.
Do USMPO Carriers Offer Moving Insurance?
All movers are legally required to offer a minimum level of insurance coverage. Unfortunately, this amounts to about $0.60 per pound of items lost, damaged, or destroyed. Did your 4 pound Macbook get broken in transit? You're only gonna get $2.40. Fortunately, USMPO can connect you with movers who offer full value protection. This means if something gets damaged or broken, you'll be reimbursed the actual price.
