from one urban neighborhood to another, look for mov<strong>in</strong>g companies that<br />

cater to people who live <strong>in</strong> your city.<br />

Ask people for recommendations and warn<strong>in</strong>gs. One good way to beg<strong>in</strong><br />

your search is through word of mouth recommendations from friends, family,<br />

and coworkers. While research<strong>in</strong>g these companies is still an important step,<br />

hav<strong>in</strong>g a rough idea of which are competent and which should be avoided can<br />

save you a lot of time.<br />

Ask local real estate agents for recommendations. Call one or two local<br />

real estate agents and ask if they can recommend a mov<strong>in</strong>g company. They<br />

have likely assisted many of their customers mov<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> or out of your current<br />

area.<br />

• If you have at least three recommended companies at this po<strong>in</strong>t, you can<br />

skip to Research<strong>in</strong>g a Mov<strong>in</strong>g <strong>Company</strong>. Return here for more ideas if<br />

those companies aren't satisfactory.<br />

Look for mov<strong>in</strong>g services <strong>in</strong> the phone book. Use a copy of the local phone<br />

book or yellow pages to search under "Mov<strong>in</strong>g" for possible companies to<br />

<strong>in</strong>vestigate. The companies listed should have actual addresses <strong>in</strong> your area,<br />

and are much less likely to scam you than the companies you f<strong>in</strong>d on an<br />

<strong>in</strong>ternet search.[1]<br />

• If there are too many companies to research, narrow it down to<br />

companies that have been <strong>in</strong> bus<strong>in</strong>ess for at least ten years. Many<br />

list<strong>in</strong>gs will have a "founded," "est.," or "s<strong>in</strong>ce" date that will tell you<br />

when the company was created.<br />

Search onl<strong>in</strong>e cautiously. If you don't have at least three companies to<br />

research, or if the companies you found by other methods turned out not to<br />

suit your needs, it's time to search onl<strong>in</strong>e. Search for "mov<strong>in</strong>g company" plus<br />

the name of your city or area, but be cautious to avoid onl<strong>in</strong>e scams. Every<br />

company website should display an address <strong>in</strong> your area, and you should<br />

never enter personal <strong>in</strong>formation or pay a fee to access the site. Research<br />

companies found onl<strong>in</strong>e with special care, as described <strong>in</strong> the next section.<br />

• Avoid sites that claim to f<strong>in</strong>d a mover for you. These are usually scams<br />

try<strong>in</strong>g to take your money or personal <strong>in</strong>formation.[2]
