Who’s actually doing the moving, and do they have the necessary resources when things go awry?

So, who is doing the actual moving? When hiring a mover, ask if they contract the work out to another source. Find out if they have full-time professional movers, and make sure they are paying into Labor and Industry. A lot of moving companies these days are hiring contractors to do the work for them. What does this mean to you? Contract labor limits their liability and actually puts you at a greater risk for loss or damage of your belongings!

A great moving company must also have the right resources available when things do go wrong, like professional technical support for moving and networking your computers in your new location, and having an experienced furniture repair person to quickly come by and fix little problems that may happen during a move.

At Friends and Family Moving & Storage, we strive to be as careful as we can, but when something does go wrong, we always have top-notch resources available with a quick call.
