However, a mover can limit its responsibility for your goods to as little as 60 cents per pound for each item. You then have 30 days to pay the remainder of the bill. However, if you asked the mover to provide more services than those that were included in the estimate, then the mover can demand the full payment for those added services at the time of delivery. Do not sign any receipt that does not document any missing or damaged goods. Be prepared to make the payment for the move.
Many movers require the charges to be paid in cash or by certified check.
Do not assume that you can pay with a credit card. Immediately address any complaints to the moving company.
