Tips for moving in Lee County

  • Confirm whether your quote is hourly or flat-rate, and ask about minimum hour charges.
  • Ask about parking permits if your street has metered or restricted loading windows.
  • Verify USDOT/MC licensing on FMCSA.gov, even for moves under 50 miles.
  • Ask about valuation coverage before signing — released value may not cover high-value items.
