In 1997, Moving Link was created to satisfy an unmet need in the moving industry from the customer’s perspective.
People are always asking, How do I find a good Mover? Do I really need one? Can I trust what the representative tells me? How many estimates should I get? How do I compare the estimates? What kind of storage is right for my needs? What can I do to reduce the cost? What happens when I encounter a problem with the moving company?
Few people or companies are familiar with the nuances of the moving industry. The reality of tariffs, fees, storage costs, packing charges, and differences in moving company quality makes all the difference between a good move and one less positive. Moving Link unravels the mystery & solves your moving puzzle.

You have the right to receive an estimate based on a physical (in-house) survey of your
shipment. Under the regulations, your mover must base your estimate (either binding,
non-binding, or not-to-exceed), on a physical survey of the household goods to be moved if
the goods are located with a 50-mile radius of your mover’s (or his agent’s) place of business.
You may elect to waive this requirement for a physical survey, but if you elect to do so,
you must sign a written waiver of your rights.
In all likelihood, you will find that an on-site estimate based on a physical survey
of the items that you plan on moving will be more accurate than an estimate that you
provide to your mover over the telephone or the Internet. So, unless circumstances warrant
(normally due to the time constraints of a short-notice move or because you are only shipping
a few items) think carefully before you elect to waive the required physical survey
of your shipment.
