As a child I remember a couple of tense report card times. These situations were due to me not making the grade. Believe it or not, there are movers who don’t make the grade. Those are the ones you want to stay away from. When you begin searching for a relocation company check out what others are saying about them. Feedback posted on the company’s website, and other sites like yelp will offer guidance into the level of customer satisfaction consumers have received.

The Better Business Bureau is another great resource. The BBB holds moving companies to a pretty tight standard. You can simply enter the name of the moving company in their search database and a profile will appear with their grade and postings about their services. Beware, if a Birmingham mover is not listed, that’s neither good nor bad. Some movers are removed at their own request.
