10 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Moving Company

 10 Questions to Ask Before Hiring a Moving Company

Choosing the right packers and movers can make the difference between a stress-free shift and a disaster. Many people make the mistake of going with the cheapest option without asking the right questions.

At Moving Mart Packers and Movers, we believe in full transparency. Here are the 10 important questions you should ask any moving company before hiring them:

⸻

1. Are You Licensed and Registered?

Always ask for the company’s registration and GST details. A registered company is more trustworthy and legally accountable.

⸻

2. Do You Offer a Written Quote?

Avoid verbal pricing. Get a written estimate with all charges clearly mentioned — including packing, loading, transport, and taxes.

⸻

3. Are There Any Hidden Costs?

Ask if the price includes tolls, fuel, loading floors, or GST. Some companies add surprise costs at the last minute — we don’t.

⸻

4. What Type of Packing Materials Do You Use?

Check if they use bubble wrap, stretch film, sturdy boxes, etc. Cheap packing increases the risk of damage.

⸻

5. Do You Have Your Own Trucks?

Some agents rent trucks from others. We own our fleet — this means better timing, tracking, and care.

⸻

6. Can You Do a Free Pre-Move Survey?

A good mover will inspect your home and offer a quote based on actual volume, not assumptions.

⸻

7. Do You Offer Insurance?

Ask if they provide insurance for accidental damage or loss. It’s better to be protected — especially for long-distance moves.

⸻

8. How Will You Handle Fragile or Valuable Items?

Check if they pack electronics, glassware, and antiques separately with extra care.

⸻

9. Do You Have Reviews or References?

Read Google reviews, or ask for customer references. A good company will have happy clients and positive feedback.

⸻

10. What If I Need to Postpone or Cancel?

Check their rescheduling or cancellation policy. Emergencies happen — flexibility matters.
