Watch out for Internet Movers! Part 2

In this installment of "Be Careful of Internet Movers!" I want to add a couple of the more common problems of what to watch out for. Please see my first post to see the first two points. http://activerain.com/blogs/yourrelocationresource

•3. Quality of service. Most likely you are dealing with a mover, or move broker (much worse!) with very little standards of performance. Remember they are dealing with trying to make money with volume, not referrals. Their men and drivers are frequently people hired that can't get work in the industry for any where else.

•4. Service history. Another consistent problem has been a lot of these "internet movers" just stop doing business under one name, and then continue business in the same manner under an new business name. It is the easiest way for these types of businesses to operate. As soon as there is a problem with too many complaints (or with the law) it is also the cheapest way out for them.

On my next installment, I will talk about how to avoid these major concerns.
