Beware of Frauds

Prabhat Giri Packers and Movers and Movers are Safe

When you are all set to relocate yourself with your entire household or other types of goods and hire a packers and movers company for your convenience, you will find a legion of packers and movers companies in the market to assist you. However, prior to finalizing a packers and movers company, make sure that you choose a company prudently or you may have to confront the bad consequences of hiring a fraud company.

There are several pathetic and woeful instances where certain fraud packers and movers companies have vanished unexpectedly and mysteriously with the transport trucks loaded with the customers’ goods. Such sad and deplorable instances have caused unfortunate customers to incur a great loss.

Here are a few great tips that can help you spot a fraudulent moving company:
A moving company fraudulent is difficult to identify. Fraudulent moving companies generally operate like this: They offer you low rates over the phone or online without ever visiting your home first or seeing the items you want to move. There have even been cases in which, once the service has been contracted, they ask for more money than agreed to be able to deliver their goods, holding your household goods hostage and forcing you to pay more.

To avoid this situation, we give you some tips so that you can recognize a fraudulent moving company before it appropriates your household goods, with aspects that you should pay attention to:

  • The moving company does not offer or arrange an inspection of your property and only gives you an estimate over the phone or online. Frequently, it seems too good to be true and most of them pass as true.
  • The moving company only accepts cash as payment or a large deposit before moving.
  • The company's website does not list a local address or provide any information about the company's licenses or insurance.
  • The moving company claims that all of your property is covered by the company's insurance.
  • They do not provide you with a brochure with "Moving Rights and Responsibilities", which they are required to give to the client according to the laws in the planning stage of moving from one state to another.
  • When you call the moving company, the person who answers the call generically says "moving" or "moving company" and does not mention and specific name of the company.
  • The company's offices and warehouses are in a poorly maintained condition or do not exist at all.
  • On the day of the move, a rental truck arrives instead of a properly identified fleet truck.
  • We recommend the following alert steps to protect your move :
  • Obtain a quote in writing, after having seen the items to be moved in your house or apartment.
  • Don't choose a service based on its price alone.
