How it works

Five steps. One coordinator. No surprises.

Transparent milestones from survey to interstate delivery, your price in writing, a named carrier on your paperwork, and one coordinator who answers for all of it.

  1. Step 1

    Tell us about your move

    Start online or by phone. Your coordinator captures the route, dates, and anything special upfront — stairs, elevators, HOA rules, a piano, artwork.

  2. Step 2

    Complete a quick video inventory

    Prefer a video call? Complete a quick virtual inventory by walking us through your home, or simply send us an itemized list. We'll use either option to accurately estimate the truck space your move requires.

  3. Step 3

    Choose specialty services together

    Packing, storage, specialty-item handling, and other moving services can be included in your plan upfront, so you know what services are part of your move before moving day.

  4. Step 4

    Review everything in writing

    Your written estimate — binding on qualifying moves — FMCSA-required valuation disclosures, and the carrier hauling your goods, AmeriSafe or a vetted carrier, named on your paperwork before the truck rolls.

  5. Step 5

    Move day coordinated end-to-end

    Dispatch, loaders, drivers, and delivery crews stay tethered through your coordinator all the way to destination delivery.

Binding pricing

A written estimate starts with a defined shipment.

Confirm your estimate type and carrier before booking. A binding estimate covers the shipment and services it lists; additional requested services and qualifying access operations can affect charges. Use FMCSA's interstate estimating guidance and the carrier's written terms to compare your options. For a move within one state, check the applicable state rules.

Know what the estimate covers

  • Confirm whether the estimate is binding or non-binding and which carrier accepts it
  • For an interstate binding estimate, identify the shipment and services covered by the agreed charges
  • Ask about additional requested services and qualifying impracticable operations
  • Read the applicable carrier terms before loading; do not treat every later service as included

Compare the same scope

  • List packing, materials, unpacking and specialty handling as included or excluded
  • Describe stairs, elevators, loading access, carrying distance and proposed vehicle size
  • Itemize storage, warehouse handling and redelivery if needed
  • Resolve missing charges and exclusions in writing before choosing a provider

Document handling responsibilities

  • Ask who supplies furniture wrapping, mattress protection and packing materials
  • Identify furniture that needs disassembly and confirm who reassembles it
  • Agree on building and floor-protection requirements for both addresses
  • Keep an inventory and condition records, with an assessment for unusual or valuable items

Plan changes and delivery

  • Tell the carrier about inventory, service, date or access changes before loading
  • Ask how changes are documented and which additional-charge rules apply
  • Confirm accepted payment methods and pickup and delivery windows
  • Keep the estimate, shipping documents, valuation selection and update contact together

Compare your options

Compare the work behind each moving option.

Use the same inventory, addresses and dates when comparing providers. Record the answers from each written offer.

Why AmeriSafe

Three conversations to have before booking an interstate move.

  • 01

    Check the company and carrier roles.

    AmeriSafe describes both carrier and broker arrangements. Ask which role applies to your shipment, identify the actual hauling carrier and check the relevant registration before booking.

  • 02

    Compare a defined shipment.

    Send the same inventory, addresses, dates and access details when requesting estimates. Ask which services are included, which are excluded and how the carrier documents changes.

  • 03

    Know who to contact.

    Ask for the contact responsible for updates, the written pickup and delivery windows, and the process for access changes, claims or a home that is not ready for delivery.

877-412-1344
How long does interstate moving take?

Ask the actual carrier for the pickup and delivery windows for your inventory, route and dates. Confirm whether the dates are estimated or guaranteed and how changes will be communicated.

How is moving cost calculated?

The shipment, addresses, access, dates and services affect the estimate. Ask the carrier to identify the pricing basis, included work, exclusions and any additional-charge rules in writing.

How do I choose a moving company?

Check the actual carrier and any broker through FMCSA, compare written estimates for the same inventory, and review payment, valuation and claims terms. Confirm state requirements for a move within one state.

How do I prepare my home for movers?

Make an inventory, identify unusual or valuable items, and confirm packing responsibilities. Give the mover both buildings’ access instructions, elevator arrangements and loading restrictions before the estimate is finalized.

How are valuables protected?

For interstate household-goods shipments, Full Value Protection applies unless you select Released Value in writing. Released Value limits carrier liability to $0.60 per pound per article. Ask about high-value declarations, deductibles, exclusions and claims instructions. Valuation is different from separate insurance.

What can't be moved?

Request the carrier’s restricted-items list before packing. Identify anything hazardous, perishable, living or otherwise unusual and confirm whether the carrier accepts it and what preparation is required.

Are discounts available?

Ask for the current written offer and eligibility terms for your move. Confirm the qualifying dates, shipment, services and final price rather than assuming a discount or savings amount.

What paperwork should I review?

Ask for the written estimate, shipping documents, inventory, valuation selection and applicable terms. Confirm the actual carrier, agreed scope, payment arrangements, dates and changes before signing.
