Best Rhode Island Long Distance & Interstate Moving Companies
No one likes to move. It can be fun to find a new place and make it your own, but the actual move is a pain. There is always so much to do. It can seem almost impossible to move your big bulky furniture out of the house without breaking something. You might find yourself thinking that there must be a better way. Well, the good news is that there is, in fact, a better way. Instead of trying to do it all yourself with a few friends and a rented truck you could consider hiring a longstanding Rhode Island moving company to help.
They can do all the heavy lifting and transporting so you don’t have to. For an additional fee, some will even handle some of the packing and unpacking for you. What could be easier?

Choosing Your Rhode Island Long Distance Movers
You need to do your research when you hire a moving company. You are trusting them with everything you own after all. These are a few questions you should ask when you are looking for a moving company.
- How long have they been in the moving business: A brand new company might be great and offer a good deal, but when it is your home you should consider how long the company has been in business. An experienced company is better able to handle any issues that might come up.
- Are they registered with the Department of Transportation: Interstate movers must be registered with the Federal government and have a U.S. DOT number.
- Look for testimonials and reviews: Check online for reviews. You will want to know their reputation on meeting deadlines, handling issues, and pleasing customers.
- Does the company have insurance for the entire value of your belongings: The law requires insurance to cover only $0.60 per pound. Some companies go further than that and provide insurance on the full replacement value or depreciated value of the items. You need to know which the company you are working with is offering.
- Are unpacking and storage services offered: These are optional services, but they can really make the moving process easy.
- Is the moving company easy to reach: You want to be guaranteed to be able to reach your moving company so it helps to hire a local company.
