Workman's Compensation Licensed movers are also required to have workman's compensation insurance for their movers. Failure to hire a company with this insurance could mean liability on your part for injuries a mover suffers on the job. Questions to Ask When you inquire about local moving with moving companies, make sure you get all the appropriate information and compare at least a few different estimates. Rates For local moves we charge per hour. The hourly rate is determined by the number of movers and trucks that the job requires.
Every local move has travel time.
Travel time has two components. First, it is the time it takes us to drive from our office to the pick-up location. Second, it is the time it takes us to drive back to our office when the job is complete. For any local move we have a two hour minimum charge. Extra charges Many companies have extra charges for unexpected scenarios and events.
