| Ramsey County Area movers sometimes charge Line Haul Charges: These are charges for the vehicle transportation portion of your move. These charges apply in addition to the additional service charges. |
|
| Make sure you provide the Ramsey County Area mover with your destination contact information. Take down any information the driver can provide such as his cell phone, pager and satellite tracking information. Ask the driver if your shipment is the last he/she will be loading. Find out when the last shipment goes onto the trailer. This will give you an indication as to when they will be departing for your new home. Ask the driver about his/her plans for delivering your items. Find out as many details as you can prior to the driver leaving your residence. |
|
| Reserve a Parking Space for the Ramsey County Area movers truck. If you live in a congested area, recruit some friends and park all of your vehicles one after another in a space close to your home and do not move them until the truck arrives. The closer the truck can get to your house, the better your chances are of not incurring an additional charge. |
|
| Your Ramsey County Area mover may discuss Advanced Charges: These charges are for services not performed by the mover but instead by a professional, craftsman or other third party at your request. The charges for these services are paid for by the mover and added to your bill of lading charges. |
|
| There are two types of estimates you could receive from your Ramsey County Area mover. The two types are Binding/Non-Binding Estimate: A binding estimate is an agreement with the mover made in advance of the move. A non-binding estimate is the carrier's approximation of the cost based on the estimated weight of the shipment and the accessorial services requested. |
|
| When taking inventory please make an estimate of value to tell your Ramsey County Area mover. A Valuation is the degree of "worth" of the shipment. The valuation charge compensates the mover for assuming a greater degree of liability than that provided for in the base transportation charges. |
|
| If you are going to have friends or family help in the moving process, line these people up ahead of time, as people need time to 'fit' your moving day into their day. Have someone on standby, as people get sick. Have your Ramsey County Area movers ordered as far in advance as possible. |
