What is residential moving? Here’s how we look at it:
Moving from one home to another – One that you’re selling to one that you’re buying elsewhere
Moving from an apartment to a house
Moving from one apartment to another apartment
Moving companies put residential moves into some broader categories
Local moves – Generally, moves that are 50 miles or less, within a state, are considered local moves. But that depends on the state. Your local Wheaton agent will know your state’s rules and regulations related to moving. You can also check with your state’s Department of Transportation.
INTRAstate moves – Generally, intrastate moves are those greater than 50 miles but within the same state. Again, that rule depends entirely on state law. Your local Wheaton agent will know your state’s rules and regulations related to moving. You can also check with your state’s Department of Transportation.
INTERstate moves – Generally, interstate moves are those that cross state lines (e.g.Washington to New York).
Where does the van line come in?
Wheaton, and other van lines, has special authority to move household goods across state lines. Many local agents do not have the authority to perform interstate moves on their own, without the help of an interstate van line like Wheaton World Wide Moving. Wheaton extends that authority to local agents, like Pom Arleau Transfer and Storage in Wenatchee, so they can move your belongings from a home in one state to a home in another. You can think of Wheaton as a network of moving agents all working to ensure your household goods gets from your origin to your destination.
Wheaton’s moving services begin with your local agent well before the truck arrives and lasts long after your final box is unpacked. The cornerstone of your moving experience, your local Wheaton Agent coordinates your move in conjunction with Wheaton corporate headquarters and is a resource available to you throughout the entire process.
Moving can seem a little daunting at first glimpse, but Wheaton’s years of experience and knowledge of the moving industry will make for a smooth transition.
corporate relocation
Recent surveys show that a primary driver of corporate relocations continues to be the inability to find a qualified workforce in the same place as the job. Pom Arleau Transfer and Storage and Wheaton World Wide Moving understand the balance between the business reasons for getting someone ready for their new position in an unfamiliar environment and the personal issues that every transferee will experience. It’s not just an address change. It’s a life change.
Communication is key
Over time, Pom Arleau Transfer and Wheaton have developed an extensive communications regimen that assigns a single-point-of-coordination to every corporate relocation. That means your company’s Human Resources manager or relocation specialist, as well as the transferee, will be kept up-to-speed at every step of the move. Everyone involved in the move will have a resource to ask questions, express concerns or simply seek some peace-of-mind.
We’ll work with your policy
Every company’s relocation policy is different. Let us know how yours is set up and we’ll work with you to maximize your benefits — whether it’s a lump sum, full move package, percentage or some combination or permutation of all three.

Regardless of your international destination, Pom Arleau Transfer and Storage is prepared to provide you with the relocation services you need.
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.
