SECURITY

You need to know about a company when hiring them to move your posessions. It is important to know their reputation and background. Here are some resources to collect that information:

• Find out if the company is licensed and insured. Also, ask the company what type of movers it employs. Licensed and insured companies who hire only professional, full-time movers will be the safest and most efficient.
  
  
• Make sure the company is registered with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Call them at (800) 299-1700, or visit their web site at www.dot.state.tx.us.
  
  
• Call the Better Business Bureau. They can let you know when a company has had complaints filed against it or has had difficulty providing the services it claims to offer. Call them at (512) 445-2911 or visit their web site at www.bbb.org.
  
  
• Find out if the company will give you a written price before the move. This will help to ensure that you are treated with honesty.
