INTRODUCTION
The
Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) regulations
protect consumers on interstate moves and define the
rights and responsibilities of consumers and household
goods carriers (movers).
The
mover gives you this pamphlet to provide information
about your rights and responsibilities as a shipper
of household goods. You should talk to your mover
if you have further questions. The mover will also
furnish you with a pamphlet describing its procedures
for handling your questions and complaints. The pamphlet
will include a number you can call to obtain additional
information about your move.
ESTIMATES
Although
movers are not required to give estimates, most movers
do provide estimates when requested. There are two
types of estimates, binding and non-binding.
