Hiring a firm for moving and storage in Thousand Oaks CA can help reduce moving day stress. But only if you get the right team on board. If you see any of the following signs, then do yourself a favor and look into hiring a different one.
Zero information
If information about the firm and its team is hard to find, then that’s a definite red flag, Freshome says. The company could be running scams. It may not be legit as well. A firm that’s been in the business for years won’t have any problems displaying all that information on their site.
No FMC number
Companies that provide moving services in the same state don’t require an FMC number. But if they offer assistance for long-distance moves, and the firm can’t provide you with an FMC number, then that’s enough of an indication that you’re better off hiring someone else.
Poor reviews
While it’s true that you shouldn’t base your hiring decision on a single bad review, if there are tons of complaints lodged against the firm and they’ve got a lot of negative feedback online, then that’s a different kettle. Good reviews, on the other hand, make for an excellent reason to give the company a chance.
Bad customer service
When you reach out to a firm for moving and storage in Thousand Oaks CA, consider the quality of its customer service. Is the customer service representative polite and knowledgeable? Did you get the help or information you needed? Think about that before you hire a firm to help on moving day.
If the movers show up late, wear unkempt and casual clothes, then you could be dealing with a dodgy mover. Terminate the contract and hire someone else rather than risk getting your belongings damaged, stolen or lost.
