 What happens when an estimator comes to my home? |
 The estimator will arrive at your home to complete the visual survey of your items. Once this is completed, the estimator will calculate the weight, packing cost and any other charge/s related to your move. Remember that the estimator must clearly see what you are moving in order to provide you with an accurate estimate. Crawl spaces, attics and cluttered closets can be deceiving, so organize your house before the estimator arrives. All charges will be based on actual time spent moving, so trying to get an “under-estimate” won’t benefit you in the long run.
Don’t be alarmed if the estimator goes through your cabinets and closets or looks under the beds. He or she must be able to see what is moving and possibly needs packing. If you know of items that are out of view, be certain to point them out to the estimator. If there are items you will be eliminating (garage sale, etc.), be sure to point them out.
Get rid of all items you do not plan to move. Otherwise, there may not be enough space for your shipment. For example, if you anticipated eliminating an entire bedroom suite but do not do so, it is quite possible that this could violate the integrity of your binding estimate and/or cause the driver to run out of space.
