Don’t be afraid to check on the Atlanta mover that you choose! Roughly 47% of the in-state movers don’t have the required state license! It is required, and yet some companies thing they can operate outside of the rules.

You can pack your belongings yourself – or leave that in the hands of the company that is moving you!

Ask the company that you are moving with if there are items that you need to move yourself.

Ask questions about Atlanta mover you are thinking about moving with – if they don’t want to answer your questions, there is a reason.

Check out the Atlanta mover on the Better Business Bureau – ask the companies you are looking to move with how many moves they do.

When you’re looking for moving company to move your belongings and pretty much move your entire life, it’s important to know about the company itself. The background of a company tells you a lot about it. We are the Atlanta moving company that is more than happy to share our experienced background!

A reputable company should ask you questions about your move, such as: “Do you have any items that require special attention?” or ”How many rooms do you have?” If you tell a moving company that you need to move and all they do is quote a number, you should expect several additional charges to pop up before your move is over. 

If you have a baby grand piano or a grand piano, it’s important to tell the moving company as soon as possible - this way, you know that you’ve got the right amount of men that need to be on that move. And it’s important to be the kind of moving company that can not only handle various sizes of moves; from a one-bedroom apartment to an 8000sq.ft. house.

I understand moving is a stressful time in Atlanta, and the way moving companies price their moves may be confusing. Furthermore, deciding who will be the mover of your family’s personal possessions and whom you invite into your home isn’t a simple task either.

Thanks to the American Moving & Storage Association of America they have come up with a program to help you decide who is best for you. This program is called the AMSA Certified Mover and Van Line Program. Here is how it works:

The AMSA Certified Mover and Van Line Program is a voluntary program for movers who elect to participate by committing to provide a professional level of service, together with efficient complaint handling and dispute resolution services for their customers. It is ope to all AMSA members. AMSA Certified Movers and Van Lines are held to a high standard of performance as agreed to in the AMSA Code of Conduct.

Program Benefits

The AMSA certification program protects the public by providing an identifiable measure of competency, while aiding the moving industry by encouraging and recognizing high professional achievement. It also puts a strong emphasis on the value of a professional move and sends a positive message to potential customers, Federal and State political leaders and consumer groups.

Through self-regulation, the AMSA Certified Mover and Van Line Program serves to:
• Improve the professionalism of industry employees.
• Furnish a means of distinguishing consumer-oriented companies.
• Assist companies in enforcing get-tough quality control policies.
• Be an impetus to improve internal industry training programs.
• Aid in recruiting better employees and contractors.
• Ensure just and reasonable practices and rates.
• Reduce claims and legal expenses.
• Help to avoid unnecessary government regulatory burdens.
• Provide a valuable marketing tool for participants.
• Encourage growth in AMSA membership.

The Certified Mover and Van Line Program helps to protect the public by providing an identifiable measure of quality while, at the same time, enhancing the moving industry by encouraging and recognizing high professional achievement. Under the voluntary program, movers are required to observe a professional code of conduct and to provide service to their private transferee (C.O.D.) and, as an option, their corporate customers, in a manner that promotes confidence in the interstate household goods moving and storage industry. A certificate and a special seal that may be used in their advertisements identifies certified movers and certified van lines.

Listed below are several questions you should answer prior to committing to a moving company. If you answer “NO” to any of these questions, your mover is not in compliance with Federal Regulations.

1) Are they licensed and insured?
2) Do they have their tariff filed and available to be viewed in their main office upon your request?
3) Do they have an Arbitration Program available?
4) Did they provide you with a copy of OCE-100 Your Rights and Responsibilities booklet?
5) Did they provide you with a copy of their household goods dispute settlement program?
6) Did they provide you with a copy of their complaint and inquiry handling procedure?
7) Did they provide you with a high value and valuation information sheet? Did they provide you with a Ready to Move brochure?
By choosing an AMSA Certified mover you are guaranteeing yourself a successful move and should something go wrong the mover is most likely going to take extra care of you so that they can keep their certification..
