Take time to do online research

There are multiple ways to know if the moving company is genuine or pretends to be genuine. And one such way is called doing online research. You can find out a lot about a moving company online. Check their presence on social media, see how active they are and on which website. Explore their official website and analyze all the customer reviews and ratings properly. If you find out anything fishy, note it down and continue exploring.

Verify their legal documents

This is one of the main things that will confirm the moving company’s genuineness to you. Remember to verify documents like GST number, moving license, and whether they have their vehicles or use rented trucks.

While doing this check-up, be cautious of similar brand names. If the documents are genuine and the moving company looks confident, then there is no problem at all. But if anything looks fishy, the moving company might be a fraud and an imitation of a genuine company with the same name. So, beware!

Visit their official address

No matter how small, a genuine moving company will have a proper office to meet its clients and customers. And if you are keen on knowing if you are making the right choice while selecting your service providers, you must visit their office too. And while you are there, look at vehicles, labor, notice boards, etc. This will give you a good insight into their internal processing and you will be able to choose better.

Discuss the matter with your family and acquaintance

When you are finally done talking to a directory portal, taking all the moving quotes, getting a pre-moving survey, doing thorough research about the moving company, and visiting the moving company’s office, it’s time to share the results with those who can guide you well. With all the information you have collected, talk to your family and see which moving company you find perfect. And then, hire that moving company based on your research and common family agreement.
