Shopping on the Internet for movers is risky business. Why is it risky?

 

Because unless you do your due diligence in researching your prospective mover you may be booking with an on-line Load Broker. What is a Load Broker? A Load Broker is a company that books your move on the Internet and then brokers it off to another carrier to haul your move from origin to destination. These Load Brokers appear to be legitimate, because you can find them on the Internet, and they have good websites. These Load Brokers quite simply farm your load out to anyone that’s heading the direction your shipment is travelling. They lack Infrastructure such as Dispatch, Customer Service and Insurance Coverage found with legitimate van lines.

 

Why is this risky? It is extremely risky because the most important concern you should have is do I have insurance coverage on my goods? When a load is brokered out you have no control over who may be covering your goods.  Also you cannot be certain that they will even show up to load your move or deliver it.

Buyer Beware!

 

Have you ever considered who will cover the cost of replacing your goods in the event of an accident, fire or theft? Chances are it will not be the final broker carrying your goods and you will have great difficulty collecting insurance coverage from the Load Broker.

 

What’s even worse with Load Brokers is that they will often give your load to van line drivers. These loads are then hauled by the van line driver illegally and are not registered with their van line. This procedure is known as “Bucksheeting” and is an illegal activity; and most importantly occurs without insurance – your goods are not covered under the van line or hauler’s insurance policy.

 

Make sure you research your prospective mover – if they are a Load Broker, don’t risk everything you have by booking with them because their price is cheaper. A bargain price usually means something is missing from the service and in this case it’s insurance coverage.

 

Dont’ forget the best source for researching your prospective mover is the Canadian Association of Movers at www.mover.net or contact them by phone at 1 866 860 0065.

If you are planning to relocate and get settled into your new home before Christmas make your plans as far ahead as possible. Timing is critical and depending on where you are moving to and from you may need more time than you think.

 

Factors to consider:

 

Weather - Roads can and do get closed during the winter due to severe snow and ice, so make sure to plan for a few extra days of travel.

 

Volume – The Christmas season is an extremely busy moving season as many people  relocate and hope to get settled into their new home before Christmas or New Years. Planning ahead will ensure you get your moving truck and crew reserved.

 

Mover - Make sure your mover has available space and schedules that will meet your expectations and get in in writing.

 

Booking your mover well ahead, allowing for extra time to travel due to weather conditions and getting your movers schedule confirmed in writing will ensure you receive your shipment at your new home well in time for Christmas.

Storage requirements and costs are generally determined by the volume or space that your goods will occupy. Storage units are described as containers, vaults, lockers, pallets and open floor storage.

 

Containers, vaults, lockers and pallets are recommended as they are more secure than open floor storage; these units are sealed by way of a door system.

 

Containers vaults,  lockers, and pallets range in size and price, and so to keep your monthly storage costs down, make sure your boxes are completely packed (no open space or air), and disassemble furniture that can be disassembled.  This will decrease your volume of space needed and decrease your monthly storage costs.

 

You will also need to check with your homeowners insurance policy to determine if  insurance coverage is available for your goods for the duration of your storage term. Some homeowners policies extend coverage to storage facilities, however get it in writing to make sure your goods are protected. If not, check with your storage facility, most do have some form of coverage available to you.

 

Make sure the facility you use is secure, video monitored, and alarmed and ask to see a copy of their insurance policy. Make sure to check the expiry date on the policy to ensure they have active insurance coverage while your goods are stored in the facility.

Advertising on the Internet

 

The Internet has provided a medium for businesses to advertise whether they are legitimate or not.  So how do you determine if the on-line business you are thinking of buying from is a legitimate quality business? It comes down to the simple concept of  “buyer beware”.

 

Research The Business

 

Do your homework and don’t accept the fact that because the business you are interested in ranks first on the Internet search page, or on the first page of Google that they are the best business to buy from. You must research the business, do your due diligence and make sure you are not about to be scammed.

 

WHAT ARE THE BEST SOURCES TO CHECK A PROSPECTIVE BUSINESS OUT WITH?

 

Start with the Better Business Bureau  at www.bbb.org. Then check Trade Associations. For example if you are interested in researching movers you can check them out with CAM (Canadian Association of Movers) at www.movers.net or with AMSA (The American Movers and Storage Association) at www.moving.org  And don’t forget friends, family and business associates, they are often the best resources for referrals, especially if they have history with the business you are interested in.

 

Companies advertising on the Internet are not always legitimate businesses. Don’t get fooled, do your homework and check them out thoroughly before you buy.

It is important for you to do your research when it comes to selecting a mover. There are many movers advertising on the internet and in the yellow page directories, claiming to be legitimate moving companies. The fact is that many of these companies advertising  are just load brokers. They book your business, have no infrastucture or systems in place to handle your service and they subcontract your move out to another company; usually to the lowest bidder or to someone whom they have no control over.

Make sure you do your due diligence and check  the mover out first with organizations such as CAM, BBB, and AMSA. Once you confirm that they are legitimate ask them for a schedule of their Moving Process. 

A quality oriented, professional moving business should be able to provide you with their Moving Process. This schedule usually outlines the steps that will take place before, during and after your move.

Knowing and understanding your movers Moving Process before you book with them will provide you with the decision to accept or decline their services – especially if you are not comfortable with any of the steps withing their Moving Process.

Most long distance moving companies charge you by the pound when it comes to charging you  for a long distance move.

 

The weight of your shipment is  initially determined based on an in-house estimate or by an on-line moving calculator; and provided that this list of goods is accurate this weight will generally be within about 10% of the actual scaled weight.

 

You have the right as a consumer to be present during the weighing process. The truck is driven to a certified scale before going to your home to load your goods. You can be present at this time to verify the light weight (Tare Weight) which is the weight of the truck empty.

 

The crew will then load everything onto your truck and return back to the scale to get the heavy weight (Gross Weight) of the truck with the shipment on. You also have the right to be present for this second weighing. To determine the actual weight (Net Weight) of your shipment the light weight is subtracted from the heavy weight and the net or actual weight of your shipment is determined.

 

We recommend that you attend both scalings (weighings) so you can verify in person that the weight of your shipment is true and accurate – after all you are paying by the pound and so you will want to ensure nothing else is on the truck when the heavy weight is taken.

Pricing is Based on Volume

 

When moving your goods overseas, pricing is based on the volume of space your shipment occupies. Your quote is generally based on either a 20 foot overseas container (8050 pounds or 1150 cubic feet) or a 40 foot container (16,450 pounds or 2350 cubic feet)

 

The Estimate

 

When an estimate is conducted in your home the estimator will list all the items you are planning to ship and then determine the size of the container you require based on the total volume of the goods listed. If your shipment is less than 1150 cubic feet your price will be based on a 20 foot container. If it occupies more space than this, your price will be based on a 40 foot container.

 

 Trim your Shipment Down

 

What if your shipment is only 1200 – 1300 cubic feet (8400 – 9100 pounds)? Should you be paying for a full 40 foot container? We recommend that you trim your shipment down and reduce the volume staying well under the 1150 cubic feet range. Get rid of some of your less important items, thus reducing your volume and price. The same concept applies to a 40 foot container (2350 cubic feet) – trim it down, stay under the volume and keep your price down.

 

Prepare to get rid of Bulky Items

 

Another suggestion is to keep some of the items you could live without (for example a bulky patio set) off to the side until the end of the loading period. Your movers will load all the important items into the overseas container first, and if they have room at the end they could load the patio furniture from the sample above, last. If they were to run out of room the patio set could be left behind, this will save you the cost of an additional container or shipping crate; which in most cases will be substantially more than the cost of replacing the patio set overseas.

 

Reducing the volume of your shipment will reduce your shipping costs.

Save Money by Choosing the Right Mover

When people shop the most common factor that they use to decide on the product or service is the price. The problem with using price as your main factor when choosing a Long Distance Moving Company is that the price you are quoted is not always the price that you pay.

Even when getting multiple quotes which seem to be based on the exact same parameters (i.e. same weight of the goods) you might in fact not be getting a better price. The reason for this is that all professional reputable moving companies stand behind the service that they offer; and if you choose a rogue mover your upfront costs might appear to be less, but by the end of the move, you will most likely be paying much more.

If the company you choose is a rogue mover, there is a good chance that your goods might be lost, stolen and/or damaged. They might also increase your costs after they load your goods and hold your goods ransom until you pay them their demanded amount.

The chance of your goods being lost, stolen or damaged is much higher when dealing with rogue movers because they don’t have a reliable network of movers across North America that they use when loading and offloading your goods. They will use casual non-professional movers who they don’t know or have any control over. Your goods might be brokered off to anyone who gives them the cheapest price. Remember if you ship 100 boxes and only 90 arrive there is a hefty cost to replace those 10 boxes and contents that you need to factor in the overall price of your relocation. Many of these companies might have insurance but having an insurance certificate does not mean that they will deal with your claim or even phone you back. You cannot file an insurance claim against a mover’s insurance policy. You can only file a claim with the moving company. They will promise you over the phone and in writing that they can handle your move and take care of any unforeseen circumstances but you can be certain that this is not the case when it comes time to resolving your claim.

Before booking your move do a Google Search on the company and see what kind of reviews and feedback that you find on them.

Choosing a long distance moving company is very different than choosing any other service because of the intimate nature of the movers handling your most precious and personal belongings. You can verify if your mover is reputable by contacting the Canadian Association of Movers at 1-866-860-0065. The Canadian Association of Movers is an industry association that monitors the quality of all moving companies across Canada and is the best source for checking out your movers reputation.

Every move requires the packing of cartons. The question is this, should you do your own packing or hire a professional?

 

Packing cartons  properly requires a certain amount of expertise, as improper packing can lead to damage of the contents inside your cartons. The problem most do-it- yourself packers make is that they do not put crushed packing paper in any open spaces or between items within their cartons. This mistake results in a collapse of the carton as soon as another carton or item is loaded on top of it in the moving van. When the carton collapses the items within it are at risk of being damaged from the weight of the item placed on top of the carton. If items get damaged from improper packing techiniques by the do-it-yourselfer, your mover will not take responsibility for the damage.

 

 

When you pack, wrap every item in paper, place each item in the carton, and place crushed packing paper in any open space within the carton. Pack the crushed paper in densely – this will prevent the carton from collapsing.  Make sure you place lots of crushed paper on the bottom of the carton and lots on top above the contents before you seal the carton. There should not be an open space in the top of the carton. The photo above represents professionally packed cartons loaded into a moving van. The cartons have maintained their shape and structure and they have not collapsed. A professional packer will wrap every item in paper, place it into the carton properly and place enough densely packed crushed paper into all the open spaces of the carton. This will prevent cartons from collapsing and will protect your precious valuables.  Also, your goods are insured when they are professioanly packed. For those do-it-yourself packers please view our Packing Tips page on our website at www.greatcanadianvanlines.com for more valuable packing tips.

Ever wonder what all those moving related terms mean? Below is a review of a few of the more common terms or phrases that you may find confusing and that will help you in understanding the language of moving:

SCALING YOUR SHIPMENT - Means to weigh the goods you are shipping. Typically the truck  that is loading your goods is weighed at a government certified truck scale before loading your goods. This gives the Tare or light weight of the truck. Your goods are then loaded onto the truck and the truck returns to the scale to get the heavy or Gross weight of the truck. The light weight (Tare) is substracted from the heavy weight (Gross) to give the Net weight , or  weight of your shipment.

WEIGHT VERUS CUBIC FOOT DIMENSIONS - You may have heard your sales person discussing the term cubic feet and weight of your shipment. You now know how the weight is determined from the scaling process, but how did we arrive at the estimated weight versus the actual scaled weight? When you submit a list of goods to your mover via the internet, or if a list of goods is aquired during an in-house estimate, the estimator converts the cubic foot dimensions of the load you are shipping into weight thru a simple conversion factor of seven. This factor of 7 pounds per cubic feet is a standard in the moving industry. Each of the items you are shipping has a dimension, known as cubic feet. We take the cubic feet dimensions of the item(s) you are shipping and multply it by the conversion factor of 7 pounds per cubic feet, and presto we have the standard weight of any item. When we combine the cubic foot dimensions of a list of average items from the average home  and convert these dimensions by a conversion factor of 7 lbs (pounds) per cubic feet, we determine the weight of the goods you are shipping; and we can give you a price for moving based on the weight of the goods you are shipping.

PER HUNDRED WIEGHT (CWT) -Many of the charges you will incurr for your moving services are based on the per hundred weight (CWT) of your shipment. What this means is that your charges are based on every hundred pounds of weight you are shipping. For example if your shipment weighs 5000 pounds and you have also requested a full packing service, you may have been quoted a per hundred weight (CWT) charge for packing. Let’s say you were charged $25.00 / cwt for packing. Your extended charges for your 5000 lb shipment would look like this $50.00 / cwt x $25.00 / cwt = $1250.00 for your packing service. Five thousand pounds is 50 x 100 lbs (5000 lbs) at a rate of $25.00 for every 100 lbs (CWT) per hundred weight.

Thank you for reading our first installment of “moving jargon”.

FOUR POINTS YOU MUST KNOW BEFORE YOU CHOOSE A MOVER

 

Since the deregulation of the moving industry the marketplace has been flooded with rogue movers. Anyone can become a mover and the only way to protect your cherished belongings is to qualify the mover prior to buying their service. Make sure they are legitimate by confirming the following:

 

1. Workers Safety Insurance Coverage - Does your mover have an account with WSIB? If not you could be held financially liable for injuries which occur to movers while in your home or on your property.
2. Insurance - Does your mover have adequate insurance? The Canadian Association of Movers requires a minimum $250,000 Cargo Coverage & 2,000,000 Liability as the minimum amounts for membership. Ask to see the mover’s policy and confirm they have adequate coverage as listed above – before you hire their services.
3. Canadian Association of Movers (CAM) - Is your mover a member of the Canadian Association of Movers in good standing? Confirm with CAM before you book.
4. Better Business Bureau – Is your mover an accredited member of the Better Business Bureau? If not don’t book with them – the risk is too high!

Please contact us by email (info@greatcanadianvanlines.com) or call us at 1800 665 0055 for your free

HOW TO SELECT A MOVER GUIDE

Despite numerous media warnings to consumers, scams involving moving companies continue to be commonplace.  “Almost everyone has a moving horror story,” says Mark Valliant, President of Great Canadian Van Lines, the only national moving company with its Head Office in Vancouver. 

 

The top scams are:  

• not compensating for damaged items due to a lack of insurance,
• holding possessions hostage until an exorbitant sum far exceeding the original estimate is paid,
• or simply not delivering the goods at all.

 

The first sign of trouble? – no written estimate.  If the company will not send a representative to your home to survey the items to be moved, then their estimate won’t be accurate.  Scam companies often have a very friendly, helpful person who will spend a few minutes answering your questions over the phone, but consumers should always seek third party verification.

 

“Consumers often just don’t know where to go to get reliable information about a moving company’s background”, says Valliant.  Every bona fide moving company will be pleased to pass these four tests:

 

1. Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB)
2. Canadian Association of Movers (CAM)
3. Mover’s Insurance
4. Better Business Bureau (BBB)

 

1. Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB) – Scammers have little or no insurance coverage.  Vancouver movers should be registered with WorkSafe BC which covers their employees while on the client’s property.  In other major centres, such as Toronto, you need to call the WSIB, the WorkPlace Safety and Insurance Board to verify coverage. If your moving company doesn’t have insurance, if one of them injures themselves at your home you can be held liable.

 

2. Canadian Association of Movers (CAM) – We strongly recommend you make companies prove they have multiple office or agent locations and better yet, check them out with the Canadian Association of Movers. You will be surprised at how many make fraudulent and misleading claims regarding the extent of their abilities and their network. The Canadian Association of Movers (CAM) keeps a database of movers, both reputable and otherwise.

 

3. Mover’s Insurance – The moving company should be ready to show you their Certificate of Insurance with at least $250,000 cargo coverage.  This is the Canadian Association of Mover’s minimum requirement.  DON’T RISK EVERYTHING YOU HAVE by taking a chance with one of these “fly by night” rogue movers.

 

4. Better Business Bureau (BBB) - The consumer watchdog Better Business Bureau (BBB) conveniently lists accredited moving companies on their website, and provides a public venue for complaints.  Friends and family can also be good sources of recommendations. 

 

The best way for consumers to avoid scams is to scrutinize every company they are considering.  Reputable moving companies will always be forthcoming about their estimates and possible extra charges, insurance coverage and can readily provide references.  Having to replace your possessions with no possibility of recourse against the offending mover is not worth the savings you are promised by an unregulated, uninsured company.

 

According to Mr. Valliant, “In this economic climate no one wants to pay more than they have to.  We have an advantage in this regard due to our low overhead, but the impulse to use the moving company which gives a low ball price much lower than any other estimate can leave consumers vulnerable to scams.”  Our credentials are right on our website.
