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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!
