Customer satisfaction isn’t just a goal — it’s our standard.
Are you a moving broker or freight forwarder?
No, we are a licensed, professional moving company — not a broker or freight forwarder.
Here’s why that matters:
Brokers don’t own trucks or movers. They act as middlemen, often outsourcing your move to third parties with very little to no oversight.
Freight forwarders manage shipping logistics but don’t actually perform your move.
Choosing a direct mover like us means:
- Full accountability and service continuity
- No surprise carriers
- Personalized customer care
Tip: Ask for a mover’s USDOT number and verify it at: FMCSA’s website.
Do you guarantee delivery or pickup dates?
For long-distance moves, we offer delivery windows and do our best to meet specific target dates.
Can you handle specialty or sensitive equipment?
Yes. Our team is trained to move electronics, servers, lab/medical equipment, and confidential files safely and securely.
