  • How can I pay at the end of the move?

    We accept several convenient payment options to make the end of your move simple and stress-free. Like many professional moving companies, we accept credit cards, debit cards, cash, and checks so you can choose the method that works best for you.
  • What can I do to speed up my relocation?

    Working with experienced local moving companies, such as ours, helps streamline the relocation process. There are also steps you can take to move more efficiently. Clearly labeling boxes by room and marking fragile items allows the crew to load, unload, and place items quickly and safely. Reserving convenient parking and, when applicable, elevators can significantly reduce carry time and delays. Disassembling furniture ahead of time, or grouping items that are not being moved away from active areas, also improves efficiency. Placing loose items into bags and staging boxes near the entryway helps the movers work in a more organized and timely manner, keeping your relocation on track.
  • Do you disassemble or reassemble furniture?

    Yes, our movers handle both disassembly and reassembly of household furniture, and they arrive fully equipped with the proper tools. This service is especially helpful when items must be taken apart to fit through doorways, stairwells, or tight spaces. According to Consumer Affairs, the average American moves approximately 11.7 times in their lifetime, which is why having experienced professionals manage these details can make a noticeable difference. Our team ensures each piece is handled carefully and reassembled correctly at your new location.
  • What are high-value items?

    High-value items are belongings valued at more than $100 per pound and may require special handling during your move. As a local moving company, Fit 2 Move asks that you notify our team in advance if these items are included, so we can take the appropriate precautions. For smaller valuables such as jewelry, collectibles, or delicate figurines, we recommend transporting them separately in your personal vehicle to ensure added peace of mind.

  • How does early delivery work?

    If you are unable to accept delivery before the first day of the delivery spread, then your mover may place your shipment in storage in a warehouse located in proximity to the destination. If your mover exercises this option, your mover must immediately notify you of the name and address of the warehouse where your mover places your shipment. Your mover has full responsibility for the charges for re-delivery, handling, and storage until it makes the final delivery.
  • How does a collection of charges work?

    When your shipment is delivered you will be expected to pay either: 100 percent of the charges on your binding estimate, or 110 percent of the charges on your non-binding estimate. You will also be requested to pay the charges for any services that you requested (for example, waiting time, an extra pickup or delivery, storage) after the contract with your mover was executed that were not included in the estimate, and any charges for services performed in conjunction with impracticable operations, not to exceed 15 percent of all other charges due at delivery. Your mover will bill you after your shipment is delivered for any remaining services.
  • How do weight tickets function?

    Your mover must obtain weight tickets if your shipment is moving under a non-binding estimate. Each time your shipment is weighed, a separate weight ticket must be obtained and signed by the weigh master. If both weighings are performed on the same scale, one weight ticket may be used to record both weighing's. The weight tickets must be presented with the invoice. Each weight ticket must contain the following six items: (1) The complete name and location of the scale. (2) The date of each weighing. (3) The identification of the weight entries as being the tare, gross, or net weights. (4) The company or mover identification of the vehicle. (5) The last name of the individual shipper as it appears on the bill of lading. (6) The mover’s shipment registration or bill of lading number.
  • How do moving inventories work?

    Your mover must prepare an inventory of your shipment. This is usually done at the time the mover loads your shipment. The mover is required to list any damage or unusual wear to any items. The purpose is to make a record of the existence and condition of each item before it is moved. After completing the inventory, both you and the mover must sign each page of the inventory. It is important that before signing you make sure the inventory lists every item in your shipment and that entries regarding the condition of each item are correct. You have the right to note any disagreement. When your shipment is delivered, if an item is missing or damaged, your ability to recover from the mover for any loss or damage may depend on the notations made on this form. The mover will give you a copy of each page of the inventory. Attach the complete inventory to your copy of the bill of lading. It is your receipt for the shipment. At the time your shipment is delivered, it is your responsibility to check the items delivered against the items listed on your inventory. If new damage is discovered, make a record of it on the inventory form. Call the damage to the attention of the mover and request that a record of the damage is made on the mover’s copy of the inventory. After the complete shipment is unloaded, the mover will request that you sign the mover’s copy of the inventory to show that you received the items listed. Do not sign until you have assured yourself that it is accurate and that proper notations have been entered regarding any missing or damaged items. Movers are prohibited from having you sign documents that release the mover from all liability for loss or damage to the shipment in exchange for delivery.
