Valuable Advice When Moving Out Of State In Shorewood, MN
Moving Out of State Doesn’t Need to Be Stressful
As Berger Allied has been helping Americans in Shorewood, MN with relocations for several years, our top-rated teams have heard some unbelievable stories from families and businesses who have unfortunately hired crews that were clearly not industry professionals. When moving out of state, there are several red flags that you should always keep in mind that signal potential disaster. While some of the following suggestions may seem obvious, high-stress levels and the need for immediate assistance may lead you to make hasty decisions. Keep a keen eye out for the following things you should never do when hiring a transfer team.
Never Hire A Crew That Only Takes Cash
Without a doubt, never hire a crew that asks for cash. No receipt means no proof of services rendered – which can also mean you’ll never see your valuable possessions ever again. Professionals take several methods of payment and always issue a detailed receipt.
Never Pay Before Your Items Are Unloaded
Do not sign off on any paperwork if you’re missing anything or your items have yet to be unloaded. It’s a huge problem to claim that boxes are missing after you’ve signed paperwork that states you’ve received your entire shipment, so avoid doing this at all cost.
Never Sign Documents You Don’t Understand
The thing with long-distance relocations, like when you’re moving out of state, is that they require additional services as compared to a simple local transfer. If you’re presented with a list of extra costs, don’t just sign the paperwork, ask questions and clarify what’s going on. If you’re unsatisfied with the answer you get, request to speak to the supervisor.
Never Wait Too Long Before Making A Claim
It is essential to open all containers immediately after a move in order to verify if items were damaged. That doesn’t mean you need to empty out every single box, but it does mean that you should open them up to see if you’ll need to make a damage claim. The longer you wait when moving out of state, the less likely your claim will be honored.
