Because of the size of the average transaction, credit card companies charge a very significant fee to process moving companies' payments ... in the 2-3% range! Our profit margins are not so large that we can afford to give up that kind of fee, and the law says we can't charge extra if a customer uses a credit card to pay. So, if we were to accept credit cards as a payment option, we would have to increase our prices overall – charging people who do not use a credit card more as well. Rather than artificially increasing our prices to cover the extra expense of accepting credit cards, we have chosen to keep our prices as low as possible and ask people to pay via other methods. The actual cash savings to our customers should outweigh any credit card benefits (i.e. airline miles) since their moving bill will be lower from the start.
