Deitz House Moving Engineers Inc
In 1945, Walter M. Deitz started ‘Deitz Heavy Moving’- the company known today as Deitz House Moving Engineers, Inc. During WWII, Walter worked as a skilled laborer assembling aircraft engine components for a U.S. military supplier. After the war, Walter started his house moving business with a single semi. His son, Richard Deitz, started working with his father at the age of 13. This year marks owner Dick Deitz’s 70th year with Deitz House Moving. Walter’s grandson, Daniel Deitz, is now celebrating over 40 years with the company and his son, Kevin Deitz, has been working alongside his father and grandfather for over a decade.

How is the cost of my shipment calculated?
If you are moving to a different state, the charges will be based on the weight of your
shipment and mileage—these are referred to as the transportation charges.
There are a variety of different moving charges that can potentially appear on your estimate,
so be sure to ask your relocation specialist to explain each charge for you.
Some additional charges that may appear include packing, crating, valuation or coverage,
bulky article charge (for oversized items), and extra labor. Again, please be certain you
fully understand these charges so that you can accurately compare the estimates you receive.
What is an order for service?
All movers are required to prepare an order for service before they transport your shipment.
The order for service provides you with written confirmation of the moving services that you
requested to be performed in conjunction with your shipment. It also lists the agreed upon
dates for the pickup and delivery of your shipment and amount of valuation that you requested,
along with any special services that you ordered.
It also features a place and telephone number where the mover can contact you during the move.
Additionally, the order for service shows the charges that you will be assessed for your
household move or corporate relocation. If you are moving under a non-binding estimate,
the order for service will indicate the amount of the estimated non-binding charges,
the method of payment for the charges and, in cases where the actual charges exceed the
non-binding estimate, the maximum amount that you are required to pay at the time of delivery
in order to obtain possession of your shipment (you will have 30 days following delivery to
pay the balance of the charges due). If you are moving under a binding estimate,
the order for service will show the charges that you will be required to pay at delivery,
based on the binding estimate and the terms of payment. You and your mover must sign the
order for service.
