Moving Company Procedures What actually is a moving company? It is a van line or a company that helps people and their Businesses Move along with their goods from one place to another. The type of Vehicles that they use is usually Trucks and moving Vans. If it is an International move that you are making it is shipping containers that are used mostly. The moving companies are usually affiliated with a Franchise. There are moving companies which operate in a small given local area only. In the United States All the moving companies have to be licensed with the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration in order to run their businesses. The State regulates the interstate and the local movers. Some people obtain the packing supplies and pack their goods themselves in order to lower down the moving cost. Come don't even hire moving vans drivers but drive them. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 40 million Americans have moved annually over the last ten years.

So what is that you do? You pack all your household equipment in packages and boxes so that they don't get damages easily. When the Customer packs his/her owned luggage it is referred to as PBO and such Luggage is not insured by the moving company. The ones that are packed by the movers is the responsibility of the moving company if any damage occurs. It is usually best to protect the polishing surfaces by covering those blankets or pieces of cloth. China and Other fragile Items should be packed closely in rigid boxes to minimize the chances of breakage. Soft materials like clothes etc. Can be packed in bags, boxes or suit boxes. Moving the furniture and other large house hold items is usually hard. Most of the Furniture then has to be dismantled, split or folded. Moving onto the Price Estimates, for long distance moves, the cost is determined by the weight of the items that are to be moved and the distance to be covered. For local Moves the Cost Mostly depends on the number hours it may take to transport the goods. Mostly the Factors which govern the cost of the move depend on things like number of hours, distance, and number of items, the size and weight.

The Estimates of the moving industry are usually in cubic feet or determined by weight in pounds or kilograms, On weight based estimates the moving company will be providing an Estimate as to the overweight of the goods or shipment and the customer is required to pay the bill based on the price per pound weight of the luggage. For those who go for the DIY, the use of truck rental service and doing everything yourself is usually less cheap. This way the Company often offers services


that are less involved and less expensive. Such Companies derive nearly all of their income from the renting out. The DIY movement is most popular in Countries like Australia, New Zealand and the UK. These moving companies are more preferred by the people because their services are often considerably less expensive than full service moving. Also much of the Liability of any damage falls on the Customer Himself.
