Reliable Movers Ithaca

🚚 What Is the Most Important Thing to Check Before Hiring an Interstate Mover?

The most important document you should ask for is proof that the company is **authorized to transport Household Goods (HHG) across state lines**.

Many moving companies have a USDOT number, but don't be fooled—**all commercial trucks are required to have a USDOT number.** Having a USDOT number alone does **not** mean a company is legally authorized to perform interstate household moves.

For interstate moving, the company must be authorized by the FMCSA to transport **Household Goods (HHG)**.

Before hiring a mover, ask for a copy of their FMCSA authority showing they are approved to carry household goods across state lines. This is one of the best ways to protect yourself from illegal movers and moving scams.

If you're moving within New York State, movers are regulated by the NYSDOT. Interstate movers are regulated by the FMCSA and must meet additional federal requirements.

You can verify any interstate moving company yourself using the FMCSA SAFER database:

Your belongings are valuable. Take a few minutes to verify that the company you're hiring is legally authorized to perform your move.

🚚 Sometimes You Just Need a Bigger Truck.

This week, one of our shipments heading to Palm Coast, Florida filled our 28-foot truck faster than expected. Instead of trying to make it fit, charging extra fees, or leaving items behind, we pulled out one of our tractor trailers, reloaded the shipment, and sent it out the very next morning.

That's one of the advantages of working with an established moving company that owns multiple trucks and has the equipment to adapt when things change.

Many movers would either leave items behind for a second trip or surprise you with additional charges. We simply found the right solution and kept the move moving.

When you hire Reliable Movers, you're not hiring a broker or a company with one truck. You're hiring a team with nearly 30 years of experience, company-owned equipment, and the ability to handle the unexpected.

Reliable Movers — “Our name says it all.”

We need to make customers aware of an ongoing problem.

We are getting more and more phone calls from people who thought they hired Reliable Movers, only to find out they accidentally booked another moving company using similar names, “Syracuse Movers,” "Reliable" or misleading Google listings.

One customer called us today after hiring a “hot tub moving company” they found online. They believed they were hiring us. The crew showed up improperly equipped, inexperienced, and unprofessional. The customer fired them and called us to complete the move correctly.

Please make sure you are actually booking:

Before booking any mover:
✔ Verify the company name
✔ Verify the website address
✔ Check reviews carefully -No mover should have 200 5 star reviews in 6 months. They are fake.
✔ Ask if they are licensed household goods movers
✔ Make sure it is THEIR truck and THEIR crew

Unfortunately, there are many companies online using similar names, lead generation websites, brokers, and temporary labor crews.

Reliable Movers has been serving Central New York since 1996 with our own trucks, our own men, and flat-rate pricing.

Our name says it all.
