Tips to Divert Moving Scams When Moving to/from Pensacola, Florida

Nobody wants to be taken advantage of and this can happen when we are caught off guard, trusting everyone that walks into our lives, both business and personal.

Stewart Moving & Storage wants to help you avoid the common pitfalls movers make when selecting a moving company.

Once you begin planning the moving process, there are many factors that come into play. Be prepared and do your homework – meaning research, research, research.

 

VERIFY THEIR “OFFICE”

 

Meet the movers “in person” if you can and it is best to meet at their office. Reason? There are dishonest people out there who will give you a fake address as they may operate from home and advertise they are a large corporation. Go to the office.

  In order to make a smooth transition with your move, verify the moving company’s existence, meaning drop-in to their office and have peace of mind, confirming the moving company is legitimate. Go one step further and verify they have moving trucks with permanent logos attached as some rogue movers place magnetic strips on the side door of a rental truck in order to fool you. There will be no deception with Stewart Moving and Storage as they provide integrity with first-class customer service.

 

 

HIRE AN ESTABLISHED MOVING COMPANY

  There are many “moving companies” out there who are not licensed, insured or do not accept credit cards. Hmmmmm…What is wrong with this picture?
